I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
There are no coincedences. That's the message of this film, according to my Girlfriend. I think she's kinda right :)
It's one of my favourite movies. The setting is peaceful yet the thrill is there. The family when it's preparing for the alien invasion and having their last good meal. That scene alone makes this movie highly endearing and moving.
What you will find in this film:-Ridiculous plot elements: such as the water thing, and the totally unnecessary back-story explanation of Joaquin Phoenix character.-Risible dialogue: lil' Culkin giving a speech to her 5-year-old sister about the importance of documenting the invasion so their sons will know their parents were there. Also Mel Gibson cursing (" Ahh! I'm insane with anger!")-Poor acting: there would have been more emotionality and gesticulation in carboard cut-outs of the cast. Just terrible. -Cheap CGI. Not even the characters in the film were scared of the alien.-Coincidental Broadcast cliché: Turning the news on precisely at the right moment EVERY SINGLE TIME. Someone please stop Shyamalan from making movies.
The movie Signs was released in August second of 2002. This movie was directed and produced by M. Night Shyamalan. The genre of this movie is science fiction thriller. The major actors in this movie are Mel Gibson, Joaquin Phoenix, Rory Culkin, and Abigail Breslin. In the movie, Rory and Abigail are kids, but they are grown up to adults now. The story is about Episcopal Priest's family and aliens coming to the earth. There are conflicts between an alien and the main character's family, and the story is about it. I really enjoyed this movie, because there was a final reversal and the ending was different with what I expected. I personally really liked this movie because the symbolism in this movie was kind of touching. Everything in the movie was all connecting, so I think the plot of the overall movie was good. One unique thing about director M. Night Shyamalan is that he always comes out as an actor in his movie. Whenever I watch his movie, I am always trying to find him out while watching the movie. Another unique thing about his movie is that when he is filming the movie, he uses lots of long shots other than short shots. I think these long shots make watchers to fall into the movie, because short shots make people hard to concentrate. I personally recommend this movie to Christians, because this movie's message is related to the religious thing. This movie shows and talks about faith in Christianity, but it can also be related to other religions. I just watched this movie once, so if I have a chance to watch it again, I will definitely watch it. I am sure that if I watch this movie again, I will catch more details from the movie and enjoy more.
