M. Night, Lady in The Water?

<< < (3/8) > >>

Merkava:
His twist endings are NOT the reason for seeing his movies. How about subtlety? Nuance? Atmosphere? Interesting method of storytelling?

I think the guy is immensely talented, but his movies past The Sixth Sense always have one flaw specific to each film that prevents them from being great films. Maybe it's the fact that he is truly successful when he is in the process of unraveling or building up, but he can't seem to reach a conclusion. This was his problem at least until Signs. The Village was just dull and...well...I haven't even bothered to check out Lady in the Water.

WE NEED BRUCE WILLIS

STAT

You don't know what you're saying. You are basically asking Nicolas Cage to fuck you in the eyes for two hours. That is how bad it is. Last time I checked it was about a 3.0 on imdb and 15% on Rotten Tomatoes.

And that is BAD.

Woah, I just checked again. It is scoring below Plan Nine From Outer Space.

That is very, very bad.

kokeyjoe:
How does it fare against Battlefield Earth, though?  John Travolta and Barry Pepper in bad Klingon make-up... or Nicolas Cage putting it in my eye... I'm still not sure which is worse.

Funny thing, though, my girlfriend was telling me her dad rented some more movies today and one of them was the Nic Cage version of Wickerman... and she told me that about 10 seconds after I read you talking about it.  I literally laughed out loud.  I wish them luck.

TheBoredOne:
I liked Lady in the Water.
Didn't like the end or the graphics, but I really enjoyed the rest.

Nothing will be as good as the 6th Sense..
at least not until he stops using CGI which really takes me out of the movie.

humanoftheyear:
i saw lady in the water this week and i wasn't too disappointed, but i also wasn't really interested in seeing it to begin with. i didn't much care for the whole part shyamalan [sic?] wrote for himself, but i think that the actually bedtime story was pretty awesome. i think it would have been a much better book, or graphic novel even. some of the stuff they did didn't really seem to translate well to me. loved giamatti though.
