No. I have liked 3 of his films. Loved the 6th Sense, enjoyed The Village and Unbreakable. But the "duds" are supermegagawdawfulcrapfests.

It had nuthin to do with a radio/walky talky. So what u are sayin is irrelevent and maybe thats what u arent getting. So when the guy finally gets a kold of the walky talky he is able to speak through that peticular communicator and the guards can hear him through that but not the elevator intercom speaker. Two different things man. Hope that helps.

M. Night is the man stop hatin! Got Em!!

[Show spoiler]so the elevator crashing caused cell phones not to work either? your love for M. Night has blinded you from this awfulness.. im telling you watch it again and youll be like oh shit nolfo was right..Devil also had the most predictable twist ever.. everybody has a back story but the old lady!! hint hint! however I do thank M. Night for Signs its one of my favorites.. but hes awful in everything else dont even get me started with the last airbender

Speaking of M. Night, The Happening is playing next week on FX. I must DVR this to see how bad it really is

everybody had cell phones but they didnt work cause the "devil" hd audio professional blocked the signal and even before the crash the telecom didnt work either.. but the crash made it not work again? this movie is silly.. remember everybody our good friend czar also rated step 3d and last airbender 4/5 stars as well

The Sixth Sense - enjoyed, but haven't seen it in years
Unbreakable - easily his best work imo
Signs - really enjoyed it until the lame ending
The Village - rented it like 5 times and never watched it / finished it. i get like 30 mins in and then just stop paying attention weird...
Lady in the Water - zero interest
The Happening - awfulness
The Last Airbender - zero interest

oh no! i hope you don't fall into the "oh my god this is so bad" coma that comes along with the film. which is a real shame since it has Wahlberg and Zooey D (from (500) Days of Summer ) in it. two of my favorite actors, in a pretty craptastic film.

If yall really think cell phones will work in an elevator I dont know what to say????? Also dude lets see all the movies u like and Im sure u will have some duds u like including Ticks. Stop it man. Step Up 3 wasnt bad at all. I guess its a bad film because u arent into those kind of films right? Its all about u right? Got Em!!

come to nyc and see if cell phones work in elevators.. i was literally just in the elevator coming back from lunch and on the phone talking fantasy football with my buddy.. okay off the subject of awful ending explain this to me

[Show spoiler]the person killing him/herself in the begining of hte movie, what did that have to do with anything besides being in the same building as the trapped people? they went to his/her office and found nothing, it made no sense.. also why is the security guard an expert on religion and is practically reading pieces from the bible word from word?

How did you enjoy it?

A lot. The scenery is gorgeous. Some good fights and shootouts. Some sentimental moments. Some sad moments. Some funny things happen.

Salvation was also the one that was the most outside of your "zone"; its much more an action movie than the others. It also has Bale, who you for some reason that is illogical loathe beyond all reason

He doesnt like his facial hair and messy hair.

That's definitely true...but that doesn't mean it made for a good movie

True, but it was good anyway. Your inability to comprehend and enjoy its quality is simply a phase that you will grow out of, in time. Lots and lots of time. Decades, probably.

Well if Sixth Sense is his best then I'm in trouble because I didn't like that one



I actually liked Signs more than Sixth Sense...and I didn't like Signs very much.

I don't remember when it plays exactly but its soon, so I'll have a review up after I watch it whenever that is.

Tonight is either

Ocean's 13 (seen it)
Mystic River
or Gone Baby Gone

I'll give it a look see someday then. Probably not soon, but it will definitely be on "the list" for eventual watching.

I haven't seen it in a while so I can recall a score for certain, but it would probably be something like a 2.75/5 or a 3/5 for me. (Signs that is)

Dude, its horrific. And Whalberg was so bad I couldnt believe it. I blame Night though, as he must have steered Mark ....

It really is "shake your head in embarrassment" bad.

I never saw what all the hate was about.

It's probably best to go in with low expectations though.

Thats crazy talk. It was crap. The sixth sense is excellent.

Sixth sense was too predictable.. i remember being in theater with my friends being like why is nobody talking to

[Show spoiler]Bruce Willis

yes the happening was bad but still a great movie for M. Night, his track record has been a mess, ive put him on the same level as Brett Ratner..
