just wondering if anyone has seen M. Knight Shamalons "The Village" with Joaquin Phoenix yet ? if so, what did you think about it?

 

Ya I saw it, it was a ! It just turned out to be more of a love story than a thriller. Had potential to be real scary but that was killed when you found out the truth about the "unspoken ones". Just my opinion.

 

downloaded it last night going to watch it this weekend

 

Wow what a movie.... best i have seen in a long time, has a very good story to it (which 95% thriller movies now lack) IMO. Even gave me and my friends a few good laughs, and had scenes that made everyone there jump (except me, lol ). Just because it doesnt have shooting, fighting, blood/gore, and explosions most people wont like it, in fact they will hate it (dont get me wrong there is nothing bad about that stuff though lol ).

 

I have no plans to see it in the theatre or rent it when it comes out on dvd. I saw "Signs" when it came out, and with all the hype I thought it would be a first rate move. WRONG. It was the 2nd worst movie I've ever seen (Tripple X gets that honour). I have no faith in the director.

 

What where those things?

 

You will have to watch the movie! It was a good movie. Way better than signs. Has a few good twists! I would give it a 8/10! Check it out.......

I saw it on saturday night....I didn't like it at all. It was really long (or felt like it), the story went extremely slow. I could describe the movie in about a paragraph its that simplistic. I didn't like how through the entire movie I was sitting there like, what the heck is goin on? Where are they going with this? I was just confused the whole time.....almost like I got it but I didn't get it at the same time. Most of the movie a scene would happen and I'd just sit there like "um...ok?"....I wouldn't watch it again, I was bored watching it. Only a few scenes I was actually interested in it...they had a couple scenes that were decent, but not many ha.

It might be just that I'm not into those kind of movies....I duno...

 

yea, its a different kinda movie. But thats what we have come to expect from him, with signs, 6th sense and all. The trailer hyped it up to be a action/horror movie, which is where they went wrong. I thought it was a great movie, but a hair slow. Sixth sence was slow in the middle as well. I figured the whole movie out about half way, girlfriend didnt believe after i told her till the very end. For matinee price it also killed a million degree nasty humid early afternoon this past saterday. To hot to do anything out in the garage anyhow.

 

Comon what were those things?

 

OK Movie but they sure did talk alot about" the ones we don't speak of"lol Made me jump a couple of times but stupid plot twist.

Everyone that I know who saw it, said it was a waste of time and money, they all said it was one of the worst ever...I think I'll wait until it's on DVD.

 

All around a first rate film. When was the last time a film had a serious dialogue? Almost every word was important to achieve the overall effect. Good acting - love unknowns in good roles. Excellent direction, great plot twists making it a believable story. This is a serious film, not a hokey, scary, summer flick. Two thumbs up!

 

O.k what where those things

 

We don't speak of them!!!!!!
