Oh god, YES! That film is hilariously awful. Mark Walhberg's acting is just, sigh.

This scene, man.

Mark Wahlberg is terrible in everything he's in.

He's not bad. But in this film, yeah.

So that trailer doesn't really seem to match the description posted earlier.

I think it looks pretty cool. I loved the music in the trailer. I love McAvoy.

Also, Wayard Pines is one of my favorite tv shows currently running, which was produced and first episode directed by Shyamalan.

A good director would not have allowed much of Wahlberg's performance into the final cut of The Happening. Wahlberg has shown in plenty of films that he is capable of acting. In the end, it was the director's fault that that movie was complete crap. He didn't push the actors to be better and the payoff in that film was terrible. Whatever tone he was going for, he didn't hit the mark.

But as far as I'm concerned, The Village, Unbreakable, Signs, The Sixth Sense are all fantastic. I still trust him, that's a lot of GREAT right there. But he definitely deserves others' mistrust after that abomination.

No actor could've saved that plot....

Trailer definitely looks intriguing to me! The concept definitely seems like it has the potential to go off the rails, but I'm liking what I'm seeing so far.

Wahlberg is good in comedy things, like Ted, Ted 2, and Pain and Gain...

That's a real winner right there. The reason the film was so infamous.

The delivery of of this line is one of the most cringe worthy laughably bad performances I've seen from an A list actor.

I sometimes watch it to laugh.

Hey, I like the trailer. Seems interesting enough, will check it out.

I can imagine his personality will switch quickly, so when they think they're being helped by one of the identities, they're probably being misled. This could be interesting and have some good tension.

Being trapped in a vault with a mentally unstable person reminds me of

I've never got the hate for Mark Wahlberg The Happening is really the only bad performances given he's fantastic in The Departed, The Fighter, Four Brothers, Boogie Nights and Pain & Gain.

As for the trailer this looks like M. NIght Shyamalan's comeback I'm really excited to see James Mcavory's performance.

Trailer lost me a little once I realized there were so many personalities. I was hoping that it would just be him (Kevin) and the nice woman and the girls would have to try to draw her out to escape. 23 seems like overkill.
