Shyamalan hit or miss with me but you know basically another one of those end of the world apocalyptic events that makes us look deeper inside The Duality of Man. And who deserves to be saved and who doesn't.

I liked the book. And enjoyed the movie. But the ending, which I didn't like either, is all M. Night. I hated how heavy-handed it was when the dude says "They're the four horsemen of the Apocalypse"

LIKE YEAH NO SHIT! THE AUDIENCE ISN'T THAT STUPID

Oh this was a great movie. Going into it I was really hesitant because I have no idea what Shyamalan I'm getting and I was worried that Batista wouldn't be able to carry a movie like this. I'm glad we got good Shyamalan and Batista is a freaking fantastic actor.

Between the reviews for this and the Last Airbender adaptation, I think Shyamalan only wants to "adapt" something to change the story into how he thought it should have gone opposed to honoring the source material.

Okay now that I've seen the whole review I can see why they didn't like this movie. I'm also an atheist and usually hate movies with a heavy-handed Christian message but I guess I just didn't interpret this movie that way regardless of shyamalan's intent. To me the ending was a very somber ending that this man sacrificed the love of his life for a world that he obviously didn't care for and that will never thank him for what he did. At the ending I wasn't seen how good it was that everyone was saved but how devastated and distraught the girl and man were and how now they have to live the rest of their lives knowing what really happened. I didn't know this was a book until after I saw the movie and while I'm at the book ending does sound more interesting I don't hate this movies ending because like I said I interpreted it very differently from the obvious intention.

The Irony with Shymalan is that devotion to having 'Twilight Zone' twists at the end of his films has come to undermine whatever else he tries to accomplish with them. All too often they derail the whole narrative.

Who could forget the end of 'Signs' where the protagonist knew what to do in the event of A LITERAL ALIEN HOUSE INVASION because of calling back to his dying wife's last words SIX MONTHS EARLIER! I could cite other examples but this comment would practically become a dissertation.

Shymalan has talent as a filmmaker, sadly he tends to bend it to chasing the old glory of when his first twist in 'Sixth Sense' made him a household name. #fukgod

I enjoyed the film. Love the performances and the tension.

Even if there's still some faults that people have with his recent films now, I'm always looking forward to a M Night film.

damn. sorry to hear the treatment this got. I haven't read Cabin at the End of the World but I do love Tremblay's writing so it's kinda fucked they weren't faithful to what he put on paper. I think i'll pass on this. I'd rather not be pissed off by "cause God wants you to" bs. #fukgod

Count Jackula pretty much reacted to this story the same way I did and I could see him seething in his seat like I did when I heard about the ending. This is why I don't watch M. Night movies. They always suck.

In Signs, Mel Gibson's family are the true villains of the movie, it shows their twisted religious views and how they interprets signs with fear and violence instead of logic and empathy. The alien they kill isn't invading but saving the son from it's asthma crisis, he doesn't fight even back. There's a reason Grant Wood's art is in the house.

You reactions reminds me of a movie you guys reviewed awhile back.
Like with vampires, humans and zombies.
Turns out it was aliens fucking with them, and made them seem the main characters were in the wrong.
Like you put everyoer through this trauma just to prove yourself right
Fuck you

I'm glad to see someone else feel the same way I did while watching this movie. I wanted to stop watching but only kept going in anticipation of the 'Shyamalan twist' ... only for this to be the movie where there wasn't one. I thought the reveal was going to be that the 4 people where actually devil worshippers, individual sacrifices can cause 'small' plagues but to start the end of the world they need to trick an innocent loving family into doing the unthinkable. The ending could go wholesome or tragic. But nope no twist, it's a world where god wants good people to just kill themselves and others, and that's apparently a world worth saving.
The book sounds a lot better, I wonder how the author feels about this movie. #fukgod

So it was not just me who heard the premise of this and was like "Wait, isn´t this totally fucked up? Why is nobody pointing this out? I am not the only one who has a problem with sacrificing queer people for the sake of god, right?"

i read the book and thought it was decent, and i CRINGED when I saw Shyamalan was adapting it.

just hearing about it from you guys and from my friends, i won't even bother giving this a try. i'm so tired of Shyamalan giving a religious twist to every film he can.

i also still haven't forgiven him for split, so.

EDIT: also, as a queer person who went to catholic school for 12 years, y'all took the words out of my mouth.

#FUKGOD Another example of this director misunderstanding the source material. Cabin in the Woods (2011) got the ending right.

Viscerally hate this film. I Deeply wish i'd never watched this movie. i never would have had to feel such white hot anger at such a waste of pretty good source material and great performances and some excellent cinematography. Take away message appears to be those loons you met online may well be right, go do some crazy shit it might save the world.

#FUKGOD - Wow this sounds offensive. You'd think after Shamalon(sp) included his own weird crap on The Last Air Bender he'd maybe learn but to change the story to something he can soap box on. Thank you for the review. I won't be watching it, though i may consider the book.

If it matters, i liked Signs a lot. When people talk about probably with it, I'm usually confused as to what they think the movie would be about. However, the part i hated about it was the god plot... basically all the reasons you mention in your video. I was fine with the naked aliens with a water allergy. The sense of paranoia and fear worked well. Where many thought the scene of the ex minister coming home to his family wearing tinfoil on their heads was just stupid, i found it incredible effective at showing how much fear and tension they were feeling. Plus, you know, crop circle movie with tinfoil hats. But the wife dying to give a sign from his god? Your entire family's life long suffering having a greater purpose? Yeah no. That was lame as hell.
