Shyamalan's Best Yet

Rating: Null/10 (30 July 2004)

First of all, you have to have had to like his first movies (Signs, The Sixth Sense) to like this movie. M. Night creates this sort of pattern in his work, much like Alfred Hitchcock did. But Shyamalan has a little something extra all his own. Most people that dislike his work simply do not understand it. You have to put yourself in Shyamalan and walk around in his mind. You have to pretend you're the one behind the lens of the camera. 'The Village' is a non-super natural thriller that will leave you on the edge of your seat wanting more. A movie that has you put yourself in this almost surreal place and fight your own fears is never-ending fun. 7.9 out of 10.
