      I really enjoyed The Happening. It definitly had some edge-of-your-seat thrills, and some comedy. This has some great performences, especially with Betty Buckley as Mrs. Jones at the end. It also has some of the most eerie music, which makes the scenes even more scary. After seeing the film i kind of felt paraniod. After the movie you will never look at your plants or the trees blowing the same way. If you are a M. Night fan you will enjoy this thriller. Don't be persuaded by these bad reviews, they are just too into gore and hardcore slaher flicks to understand a true thriller. I really hope you take a chance with this film.

      My wife and I went and saw this film last evening. I thought the film was quite good. The story was well told and their was some comic relief as well. There were some jump-out-of-your-seat thrills and a lot of political commentary. There was an underlying theme regarding the ability of the femal lead to commit to personal relationships and, as in all movies, there was a love story. I have read the other comments and reviews of this movie and was not surprised at all to see that there were many people who didn't really like this one. The story was told in a way that I would equate with Alfred Hitch****'s The Birds. Mark Walberg and John Leguizamo both did fine jobs of acting and the supporting cast was very good as well. All in all it was a very enjoyable experience and worth the price of admission.

      When i heard thier was going to be another night film i was waiting for it to come to theatres and i went to go see. I was expecting a good film but it felt as though it was a poorly written essay by a smart student. It was a let down but it was still a good film by all means. With some strange effects and creepy music i think this movie deserved a little better from the critiques.

      This is a good movie for what it is trying to do, which I am still trying to figure out. If you have seen this movie you will most likely agree with me. The ending leads me to say what the ????
