Legend has it, that the script took forever to finish. Every time they finished a line, it disappeared
I know it's a bullshit movie okay, everyone who watched it knows that! But it's some great bullshit and I'm glad i watched it. Trailer was right, it is the Michael Bayest movie of all Michael Bay movies.

Snoozefest. mother! 2. The way people were talking about this movie like it was the scariest thing ever in the world is just insane. I was bored for most of it. I'm done with movies that stay on the same slow zoom on a stationary character with increased buzzing and then CUT to silence. It's been done to death. And the scene that is supposedly so traumatizing, that was a great scene, I shouted, it was pretty sweet, but it's not a "things are different now" situation. This falls right in line with other "modern classics" that were hyped beyond for me like It Follows, The Babadook, and the Witch. I don't care for any of those and a lot of people do. But I'm just not seeing it. Same thing with this. I will give props to the trailer though. Great trailer.
It was nice to watch, but you can see there is much more of a story and they needed it to keep it short. It would have been better as a 10 episode mini serie. More backstories and showing different characters and there powers. The effects where nice, but has gone too quick to wrap it up.
Not M. Night Shyamalan's best movie, but a satisfactory movie that succeeded in what it was trying to do. The tension was established quite early in the movie, and it never let up until the very end. I will say the end of the movie did leave with more to be desired, but I can't say the movie didn't keep me watching throughout.
Pretentious and genuinely awful. Can't understand the hype about it.

I've gotta watch more movies with Chadwick Boseman. This movie was very good, but it was really him that drew me in.
I liked this movie since I was a child. Very entertaining and original for a 1998 movie.
Story good. Agendas bad. Could have been great.
