Night Shyamalan Audience Rating: PG-13 (Parental Guidance Suggested) Binding: VHS Tape EAN: 0018713433176 Format: NTSC Label: Buena Vista Pictures Languages: Manufacturer: Buena Vista Pictures Publisher: Buena Vista Pictures Release Date: August 05, 2003 Running Time: 106 minutes Studio: Buena Vista Pictures Theatrical Release Date: August 02, 2002 Rating:  - It's kind of.............meh.....It's not a bad movie, it's just not that great either. It starts out interesting enough. The acting is fine, the script is fine. But the ending is kind of lame, and it wont ever hold up against say........the original Alien. But still, it's a fun way to kill an evening. I recommend a rental. Rating:  - Amazing!M. Night Shyamalan is the master! This movie is excellent! As every M. Night movie is. Great characters, great acting and a unusual, never been done before story! Never pass up the chance to see a M. Night Shyamalan classic! Rating: - re-titled: "Inconceivable"Ok, there were 2 moments in this movie were I did actually jump or flinch. So, it was effective in that way. I liked the characters and I did feel sadness for their loss. However, there are definitely problems with this story.... as everyone else has noted. Let me add these: 1) This movie is so politically correct. Why does this farmer or anyone else not have a friggin' gun? It reminds me of Scott Evil, character in Austin Powers movies,--- take a gun and just shoot him! Get it over with! 2) How can aliens that travelled millions of miles to us be confounded by wooden doors or boarded up windows? 3) There is a hella-lot of water on our planet, dumb aliens! Obviously you saw it up from your spaceships. Don't come here. I will say this: our 10-year old has been interested in seeing a scary movie and so we thought this would be a first one to see. Even the child saw problems with the movie, so it was good that it did generate some critical thought. Rating:  - Excruciatingly badWhen I watch a film like "Signs", I am always reminded that it doesn't matter how much funding goes into the making of a film if the execution of the story is done poorly. This was one of the worst movies I have seen in the last year. It is clear that Mr. Shyamalan had an over abundance of ideas that he wanted to say (many of which were quite interesting) when he made this film. However, he did not come close to putting them together in the cohesive unit that it needed to be in. "It's not working" was what I kept thinking. It came across as fragmented, nonsensical, comedic and unbelievable. If you add on top of this very poor direction and acting (by normally very good actors) with almost laughable and wooden dialogue (ala Star Wars Episode 1), the result is "Signs". I basically felt like I was watching a really well funded student film with Mel Gibson playing the lead role. Others have told me "The Village" and "The Lady in the Water" are equally bad, if not worse. Let us hope he turns things around with "The Happening" next month. I wanted to turn this movie off after the first hour but pushed on hoping it would get better. It got worse and more laughable and when the final credits rolled, I could only shake my head in disappointment. Rating: - woefully disappointedThis was the second M. Night S. movie I watched. The first of course being Sixth Sense, which I enjoyed. Unfortunately, Signs didn't hold the same interest for me. I found it tiresome and boring. I continued to watch it in the hopes that something might happen, but it just kept on with its tedious wandering. It seemed to lack direction and focus. With the exception of Unbreakable, I think most of M. Night's movies (after Sixth Sense) have been a painful let-down. I can't recommend this movie and am not sure I look forward to anymore of M. Night's future movies. This movie reminded me of one important thing. Time is not a renewable resource. Some of which I lost watching this movie.
