Learn from my mistakes - Don't waste an M. Night on The Village idiot

by millinocket millinocket is a Lead on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Aug 15 '04
Pros: Semi-interesting premise
Cons: Script, Direction, Performances, Effects, Characters, Story
As of August 8, 2004, it cost eight bucks to see a movie where I live. Since I don’t like to see movies alone, add another eight bucks. Add fifteen more for a babysitter and the grand total is thirty one dollars. Thirty one dollars that would have ...

by dragonfire88 dragonfire88 is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Aug 14 '04
Pros: Bryce Dallas Howard. Interesting idea.
Cons: Slow in places. It was different from how the previews portrayed it.
I have seen all the movies that M. Night Shyamalan has made. I loved The Sixth Sense and Signs. I did like Unbreakable too, but not as much as the other movies. I have been seeing previews for The Village for several ...

It takes a VILLAGE to raise......."Those We Do Not Speak Of"

A horror movie review is a difficult one to give without lettin' the monsters out. I'll try to give some information of the story line and other notes without detailing key parts that may hinder your enjoyment of the film. MY EXPERIENCE I ...

A Walk In The Woods

by pmills1210 pmills1210 is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Oct 30 '04
Pros: Howard and Phoenix are the life of this village
Cons: The story is unoriginal and leaves certain questions unanswered
The stories in the films by M. Night Shyamalan are never quite what they seem to be. Some plot twist gives the film a sudden turn, but that turn make sense of what has been presented. To give away that twist would deprive potential viewers of the ...

by mike.holmes mike.holmes is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jul 31 '04
Pros: Acting, writing, cinematography, music, and direction
Cons: None
I seldom write reviews of movies that already have over 20 reviews in the first 24 hours after the first screening. However, I was stunned by the greatness of this film. I'm also somewhat stunned by the wide differences of opinion about the film. ...

What Evil Rests at the Center of The Village?

by lambchops Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Jul 30 '04
Pros: Great acting & casting, good script, nice direction...
Cons: Pacing issues...
If M. Night Shyamalan presents one constant across his movies, it is that the world is full of twisted contradictions. Life is death. Superheroes exist in the common man. Aliens really are out there. In his most recent film The Village, what can be ...

M. Night Shyamalan -- The Village (2004)

by flamepillar Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Aug 01 '04
Pros: Some truly brilliant moments and a fantastic cast.
Cons: Sometimes it's not so easy to be the teacher's pet. Oops, I confused ya huh!
M. Night Shyamalan has become quite the phenomenon. His debut outing, The Sixth Sense, took the world by storm, paving the way for followup efforts Unbreakable and Signs. It would also appear that Shyamalan develops real rapport ...

"try your very best not to scream..." or cry. or riot.

by Stairway2Drew Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Aug 19 '04
Pros: the suspense.
Cons: the DECEPTION!
M. Night Shyamalan's the Village is a disturbing film. It disturbs, not by flagrantly displaying the mauled bodies of murder victims or by steering us directly into the unsettling eyes of a vile but all-too-knowing madman, but by documenting the ...

Pros: beautifully shot, masterfully directed, great story

Pros: It looks pretty

Well, I honestly thought about writing a complete review of The Village that spoke of the engaging story, excellent acting, wonderful screenplay and masterful directing. Then at the end, I would just type these few simple words... Just ...

M. Night Shyamalan stumbles blindly into The Village

by pearannoyed Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 20 '05
Pros: Beautiful music; interesting premise
Cons: Terrible, horrible, no good, very bad acting
When I first saw the trailers for The Village I couldn’t wait to see it. What could there be to not like about a movie about a little village set in a haunted woods in the late 1800s? Add to the mystery of their surroundings the fact ...

M. Night Shyamalan’s THE VILLAGE 2004

by artbyjude Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Feb 22 '05
Pros: MUSIC, Howard, Phoenix, Brody, Hurt and Cinematography, in that order
Cons: lame story, big surprise is neither big nor a surprise, happening too soon.
I think maybe its time M. Night took a break. Because he is going from bad to worse in a steady spiral downward. 6th SENSE? Great movie. I was awed with everyone else. UNBREAKABLE? interesting but annoying. SIGNS? Potential but a tad moralistic-no ...
