September 22, 2009Quintessentially this is a contemporary superhero movie, and a damn good one at that! Probably M. Night Shyamalan's best film to date.

November 16, 2009I personally see this as Shyamalan's best because it is a superhero movie without the child costumes. When you look at it, it's really just a retelling of the Superman story. Only, Superman doesn't know he's Superman. The realistic approach is such a fresh idea to the whole super...( read more)

November 12, 2009A simply amazing premise for a story period. It can be a bit slow at times, but when it's over you'll be completly satisfied.

Even if the ending doesn't entirely succeed, it doesn't cheat, and it comes at the end of an uncommonly absorbing movie. full review

Far-fetched and utterly humorless.

February 29, 2008Essentially, this movie sucked! There was a lot of hype surrounding it and it did look good, but it fell flat...
Haven't seen The Village or The Lady in the Water, but The Sixth Sense is starting to look like a fluke... like, he didn't do a good job directing The Sixth Sense, Shyamalan just got lucky! -
May 30, 2007this is the best movie of all time with the two best actors in it of all time

February 4, 2007Lisy thats just dum. He also made signs sdo naturaly you must think he hates aliens? He also made the village so he must naturally think that everyone in a village keeps itself seperate from the rest of the world.

October 17, 2006The first comment posted here is absolutely and totally absurd! Chill out! In no way is M. Night Shyamalan painting all brittle-boned people as terrorists. Wow, how you drew that conclusion boggles me, and the fact that you did convinces me that you are very insecure. I suggest posting logical theories in the future, rather than drivel like that.

August 1, 2006what? ... m night hates us all because we break our bones? ... want to take an any stupider, bigger leap in logic than that?

June 11, 2006The single most offensive film I have ever seen.
Loaded with factual and medical inaccuracies (Type IV Osteogenesis Imperfecta is not fatal, just for starters), you have to wonder if any research was done in the making of this movie at all.
A friend of mine has a theory that M Night Shyamalan looks really bad in Speedo's. He was jealous of the kid at school with Brittle Bones who often got out of swimming due to always having a limb in plaster. This could certainly go some way to explaining why he hates people with Osteogenesis Imperfecta so much.
And hate us he clearly does, with his big budget, famous cast, thriller that brands us all terrorists or potential terrorists just because we break our bones.
