It’s funny how you can also come into something not expecting anything at all and still be disappointed. After watching The Village, also by M. Night Shyamalan, I came into The... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~440668491396 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 20:13:42 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_440668491396?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_438853537412?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author t13monkeys - M.

Night Shyamalan movie since…his last one, Lady in the Water. I recently saw The Happening and kind of liked it, though it certainly is not his best movie – that distinction is... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~435256725124 Fri, 27 Jun 2008 22:32:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_435256725124?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_435215568516?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author clemonsr - The Happening has great potential to be one of the great movies by M Night. However, the story is incomplete. The explanation is not clear on what is happening, specifically the cause. It's a wonderful fantasy about how the world ends, and the cause,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~435215568516 Fri, 27 Jun 2008 14:25:25 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_435215568516?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_435095834244?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pmarrocc - From the first five minutes I could tell this movie was going to be utterly terrible. The concept was ridiculous and the characters carrying it out were awful. Nobody reacted in a way that was realistic even if this was happening. I kept hoping that this... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~435095834244 Thu, 26 Jun 2008 14:40:47 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_435095834244?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_434627448452?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author whatihave2say - This movie had what could of been a GREAT story! But of course it was horrible! I can not believe I even stayed through the whole thing. It was so boring through out the whole movie. There were maybe one or two parts were I even liked the movie but the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~434627448452 Sun, 22 Jun 2008 16:02:23 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_434627448452?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_434608443012?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author coldsteel7 - Note: This review will reveal minor plot details. I generally tend to give M. Night Shyamalan the benefit of the doubt. I have liked a lot of his movies that have been panned by the media.

Night Shyamalan has made a career out of creating films that remain a mystery to potential audiences until they are actually inside of the theater. The mystery of the plot as well as keeping most of the intent of a story hidden seems to pique... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~434233970308 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 04:14:36 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_434233970308?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_434141433476?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author dramastef - Central Park in the morning.

Night Shyamalan&#146s latest effort The Happening is a cinematic train wreck and, indirectly, Al Gore is to blame. The wannabe thriller begins with a solid, curiosity provoking premise as most of his movies do and starts down the tracks very... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~434089332356 Tue, 17 Jun 2008 23:23:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_434089332356?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_434086252164?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sarah5775 - Note: This movie features cameos from two famous Broadway stars- Betty Buckley and a very non-glamorous Victoria Clark. If you are a theater buff, see if you can spot them First let me start off by saying the Happening is not for the faint of heart... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~434086252164 Tue, 17 Jun 2008 23:07:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_434086252164?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_434053025412?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author glowsw - Do you ever look around at the world and feel like we’re at the tipping point? That we are precariously balanced, about to fall into disaster.

I never really liked Signs and thought the Village was pretty bad, I never saw Lady in the Water but have not heard it’s good however I would keep an open mind about it if I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~433867361924 Mon, 16 Jun 2008 05:48:34 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_433867361924?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_433772990084?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lisaffire - So when you're a mom and dad and given a date night out of the blue you take what you can get, so the timing worked that we went to see The Happening. It wasn't a movie I was planning on seeing. I've seen other movies by M. Night Shyamalan namely... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~433772990084 Sun, 15 Jun 2008 08:34:08 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_433772990084?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_433660857988?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mike.holmes - M. Night Shyamalan is not my favorite director but I believe that most of his films, including "The Happening", are entertaining and require the viewer to think. This latter quality no longer seems to be appreciated by many movie fans.

It&#146s premise when given an explanation is more ridiculous than the idea of a group of people living on a reservation made to look like the late 1800s because the perils of the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~433630514820 Fri, 13 Jun 2008 20:33:02 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_433630514820?linkin_id=8003929
