The Happening

[jamie2112]

Holy cow this movie sucked. I cannot understand the hype with this guy Shamalan. I will not watch another of his movies again after this piece o trash. I liked sixth sense and signs but everything else is not so good.... Sorry but I just wasted 90 minutes that I won't get back and I don't want anyone else to feel jipped like myself.

There's already a "this movie sucked" thread for this one :)

No, it was from when the movie came out in the theaters. Sorry that you didn't catch it before having it waste your time.

I hated Signs.

Yep thats about it....:D

Are there hot dogs in the movie, or are they just mentioned? That might sway my decision to watch it. :)

Yeah, not really. The trailers looked bad enough. All of these reviews pretty much sealed the deal for me.

[newaudiofile]

yeah I was disappointed too.
I thought the start was good. But they could have had a better ending. But it just ended.........sucked.

I really do love to say that I thought this movie was 1000% pure crap.

And just like you, I vow to never see another one of his sorry a$$ movies ever again.

I hope he never makes another movie again.

To me, this director (not even worth typing out his name) is the total opposite of Quentin Tarantino. Tarantino is 100% COOL, and this guy is 100% NERD.

I wouldn't even take Happening BD if someone gave it to me for free. That is how much I hated this movie.:D

M. Night is trying to bring something a little different to the table, however I have to say it isn't working at all. His record has been heading down hill since the start and hasn't really looked back up. I don't want to be too hard on him because I like some of his movies, but I think he ran out of good ideas about 2 movies into his career.

I watched this last night.
What can I say that others have not?
I only watched it cause the GF really wanted to see it (scored some points!).
It really did have the potential to be a good movie, just didn't deliver.

I didn't think this movie was as bad as a lot of people did. It wasn't great but what seemed to bother a lot of people that I spoke to was that it made them really uncomfortable, like the premise was a little too scary to enjoy. People seemed to have high expectations and then got disappointed and turned on the movie and M. Night.

I thought the first 20 minutes was really scary but then it ground down to an "on the run" movie where the characters keep moving and drop one at a time. Not too good, but far from the "worst movie ever made" that I have heard people call it. I've seen lots of horror movies and many of the were MUCH, MUCH worse. After Lady in the Water and the Happening, I hope that Shyamalan gets it together. He had such an auspicious beginning and seems to have bet his life on making movies, it would be a shame for him to continue on a downward arc.
