Lady in the water

Hmmm, still not sure what I think of this one. Not M. Night's best work for sure.

saden1 · 07-30-2006, 01:19 PM

M Night has only made one movie that can unequivocally be described as a great movie and that movie the Sixth Sense. Everything else he has put out since leans to the garbage side of the spectrum.

I though "Unbreakable" - if it isn't viewed through the "Sixth Sense" prism - is a great movie. Since everyone was waiting for the reveal, it lacked the impact of 6th Sense.

Before he did Sixth Sense he did a small movie called Praying with Anger that I thought was really good.

MTK · 07-30-2006, 01:55 PM

I liked The Village too.

I think he set the bar so high with the sixth sense it's awfully hard to repeat that success. It's hard to watch one of his movies now and not expect a twist.

lady in the water, hmmm. I heard many people saying "that sucked" while walking out. If you take it as a fantasy movie its alright. It wasn't good though because they just were going over the same thing over and over and kept on messing up in the process so they had to do it again. It was different than anyother movie i have seen. I guess the story line was kind of interesting but nothing great at all. B- for the BSB.

elliot in the morning interviewd m night and he was saying that lady in the water shouldnt be viewed as a horror, while there are some parts that might jump out at you its more of a fantasy type movie

M.Night has best work ?? There was almost a riot during the Village when at the end we found it they were trying to live tax free on a wildlife reserve.
Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo MNight.

If anyone likes horror that movie Pulse due out shortly looks awesome.

BigSKINBauer · 07-30-2006, 02:58 PM

6th sense was the shit.

Your mindset heading into this film definitely makes a difference. If you're waiting for the twist, don't because there isn't one. If you're expecting a horror film, don't because it isn't one.

I wish I knew a little more about it before seeing it, I might have enjoyed it more.

MightyJoeGibbs · 07-30-2006, 03:23 PM

The whole movie critic to public understanding is full of it. 2 Thumbs or this and that is a wretched and horrible way to tell people what a movie is about. Id expect for these critics to get paid as much as they do, to expand on their professional standing and vocabulary beyond raising an extremity.

That Guy · 07-30-2006, 03:29 PM

I liked 6th sense, but basically nothing else he's ever done.

he's a good guy though.

BigSKINBauer · 07-30-2006, 04:57 PM

yeah this is by no means a horror movie. Its more a comedy than a horror movie. it is a fantasy movie and it is different than most movies i have seen.
