The point in the movie where a number of people in their cars converged at a crossroad was the turning point in the film. I was generally apprehensive as to what they were going to face. Then the director blew it. I will not give the utterly improbable plot away but will say that M. Night Shymalan must retire as a one hit wonder with only the Sixth Sense as a credible movie under his repetoir.

This was a horrible movie! There is no explanation for what the people are seeing and hearing and why this happened. I left the theater feeling chipped. I'm shocked that Mark Walberg saw something in this script. I thought he would of had better taste than to chose to be part of this movie.

Who ever decides to see this movie next,do us all a favor. Burn the screen before it begins. Trust me. It's worth it.

wow i cant believe there are people that could actually 5 star this movie. it was absolutley and utterly awful. the plot line was incredibly dumb and the effects were something you would see on you tube. save your money and read a book or stab your eyes with a pen because this movie is the worst thing to hit the cinema since red dawn.

M.NIGHT SHALAMAN STOOPS TO A NEW LOW. i can't believe this movie was as bad as it was. i usually like his films, but this one was just terrible. there were no special effects, the plot was slow and uneventful, the acting was terrible, and the microphone was even showing in like over 10 different scenes! poor guy, his career is going to go down the tubes after this one... DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS ONE FOLKS!

this was not one of M.Nights best movie, there was no character development,or anything, there was some sketchy parts with that old lady, and it was just not that great. I am disappointed. His best movies are Unbreakable ans Signs.
