Dear M. Night Shyamalan-adingdong,
I have one question for you... why?
Why would you put out AMAZING films such as Signs, The Sixth Sense, even The Village (or as I call it "the Willage") and then put out a piece of poo like The Happening?
Yes, The Happening has a decent storyline, but the acting... oh dear God in heaven...
Couldn't you have either directed Marky Mark* to not act douche-bag-like or cast someone else entirely? And what's with the lack of a weird twist we are all so accustomed to see...
Some of my favorites twists:
- Bruce Willis is dead?!
- The village is actually modern day!
- Samuel L Jackson is the BAD GUY (ok, we saw that coming...)
I have my theories...
- You ran out of ideas
- You don't care anymore (nooooo!!!)
- You have a film contract with some company you don't like and you are sabotaging your efforts....
So all in all it was a poorly executed, badly acted, made-me-wanna-kill-myself feel good movie...
I want the old M. Night Shyamalan back... I also want my 2 hours and $13.50 back...
*Don't get me wrong, I loves me some Mark Wahlberg, I mean did you SEE him in Boogie Nights??? Don't worry, Marky Mark, you are still on my list...
