I just got back from watching The Happening…by the in/famous M. Night Shyamalan (yes I had to check to spell his name).
He is going to run out of vague movie names. Seriously. The title didn’t have much to do with the movie. What else will there be? “The Incident” “The State of Being” “No Title” “Movie About Weird Things” “I Like to State the Obvious”
Movies are supposed to be underlined right? Oh well. Pretend they are.
This movie was interesting and I’m still glad I watched it because it was fun. It’s fun to laugh when there are corny lines. It’s fun to watch Mark Walhberg try to be Mr. Science Teacher nice guy. That was weird. Really weird to watch. It felt like it was really hard for him to be…normal…like he felt more comfortable if he could just beat everyone up instead of being leader and trying to save people.
The end result: I will still go watch whatever Mr. Shyamalan throws at me. This movie will make you afraid of the wind. That’s the spoiler I will give. It’s a lot more fun to watch it than read the spoiler. This is pretty big coming from someone who likes to read movie spoilers. Speaking of which, I have some I need to read. (The Strangers, I’m looking at you).
