Quality filmaking.

Rating: 8/10 (1 August 2004)

Part 1: Night's 4th film was probably his worst, but still an above average movie. First off all, the acting. The large cast was great, usually Night works with small cast. This time he has more people to direct. Good acting all across the board. His camera work was phenomenal. His trademark still shots, camera's do not move often in some shots, awkward angles, signature reflection off glass shots, remember young Samuel Jackson staring at a TV in Unbreakable? Or the Alien popping up on the Tv in signs? Shyamalan makes a brief appearance in this one too, except he is the one shown in the glass this time. I love how he uses that red color in most of his films. Notabably in the sixth sense.
Part 2: This movie was suspensful of course. Not like Signs but a little more realistic and predictable. I predicted the surprise ending after 1 hour into viewing the film, and also predicted The sixth sense also. Unbreakable was Night's only film that shocked me in the end. Signs was a message movie, and more thought provoking. The funny thing is , I predicted the end of this movie but it was almost as if Night added something more suspenseful in this movie just incase the audience caught on. Not up to par with his previous films, but still an outstanding script, concept, and creation of suspense. An amazing filmmaker!
