I was not too crazy about this one it was just so very surface-level, undercooked, just felt like a nothing movie, which is a shame because other than Old I’ve like M Night’s last few films this one was just a nothing movie

I read the book first and as soon as I saw the first frame of the trailer, I knew what it was. Sad that they changed the ending because much of the tension in the book is not knowing whether the strangers are telling the truth or not.

Seriously, how does he still get funding for movies? The Left Behind series I'm sure is better.

Great post! I am once again motivated to see this movie! Luckily for me I can pick up on twist endings so there is no way you two can truly spoil a movie for me because its about how they get the twist ending is what counts!

I read the book and loved it; the different ending you describe in the movie not so much. The book ending was much more ambiguous as to whether the doomsday scenario was actually real or not. Also, the book was more courageous with the accidental shooting of Wen resulting in her death and the couple at the end deciding to stick together and not sacrifice either one of them regardless of the outcome. Those plot events would not have gone over well with certain members of the audience I think which is why they were changed - for the sake of commercial success not Shyamalan trying to be original. I will not be wasting my money on seeing this movie in the theatre or Pay-for-View. I may watch it when it is included in one of the streaming services I subscribe to for the performances. Thanks for your review which as always is very insightful and much appreciated.

Just saw this tonight, thank you for the review. I thought the movie was ok….my favorite parts were the giant wave and the planes falling out the sky

Here’s my issue I didn’t feel the severity of them needing to die every time the family said no , like they made it seem like they only had visions and no one clearly spoke to them or anything they all said they don’t quite understand so it’s like how u just know how necessary it is for u to put on hang white head cover and die like it just didn’t connect with me

I really was disappointed by the film, agee it was more like a twilight zone episode and ridiculous telling Leonard go to the bathroom. The ending was a let down.

I read the novel this was based on….it did have a much more ambiguous end! Yeah seems like some big differences …I actually thought the book was also odd in its premise. I mean I would never consider killing. A.Loved One because a bunch of whack. Jobs show up to say that nonsense idea…, what would some idea of “ saving humanity “ mean if you can’t save your most loved ones .a lot of detail with the young adopted daughter and the grasshoppers sounds identical to the book though. I would like to see it when it gets to streaming.

I seriously nodded off twice watching this movie.😂 It wasn't as bad as The Happening, which was TERRIBLE! I wanted my money back after that shitshow. But I loved Sixth Sense, The Village, the Unbreakable series and The Visit. I really thought M. Night had gotten his groove back after The Visit, but I guess not. But this movie was ok, like you guys said. LOL Alphonso from Breakfast All Day was offended by the movie🙄He thought the plane falling was exploitative of 9/11 and the virus in the movie was exploitative of the pandemic.

I liked the movie but like always the book is much better. Also I think I would let the world burn if I was in the couple's shoes.
