A TRIPLE THREAT!!! (Tedious, Ludicrous AND Moronic)

Rating: Null/10 (9 January 2005)

If only M. Night Shyamalan were half the genius he thinks he is, we might have a decent film-geek movie-maker on our hands (ala Spielberg or Tarantino). With each of his films since "The Sixth Sense" getting progressively more insipid, however, it appears that we merely have another hubris-driven windbag with a camera and a PR team. I'm sorry, but any filmmaker who interrupts the climax of his own film for a long and pointless cameo is clearly working from ego rather than artistic integrity. (Don't even get me started on the totally self-serving "Buried Secret of M. Night" TV debacle.) Boo, indeed.
4 out of 10 for a good William Hurt performance.
