The Village vs. Truman Show

Rating: Null/10 (6 August 2004)

SPOILERS I'm not going to rip Shami, I can appreciate any form of art. But wasn't the village a terrible anti-climactic attempt at something the Truman show already succeeded at?? they both deal with protecting a person or a group of people from the "real world" they both use fear to contain them; members of the village are afraid of the "monsters" surrounding their environment, whom are fake, created by the elders, in truman, he is afraid of the water, this fear is also fake due to a staged death of his father drowning. the town he lives in is surrounded by water. the only difference in the 2 films is that everything else was done wrong in the village and done right in the truman show. now i understand these are 2 different directors with 2 different creative minds and 2 different opinions, but the truman show just destroys the village.
please do comment if u wish.
