I just cannot fathom all the negative reviews surrounding this gem!ATMOSPHERE. This is what is lacking in so many so-called thrillers today and what made older films so successful. Even B cult films such as the 1977 original "The Hills Have Eyes", were saved by the precious quality of atmosphere. If a film can create a chilling atmoshpere, along with competant acting, then it has already won more than half the battle. M. Night Shayamalan's "Signs" is a SUPERB example of how to create an incredibly razor's edge atmosphere and the filmaker should be applauded immensely for this. Too many "thrillers" today rely on sex and gore which really cheapen the plot and leave the viewer really not all that "scared", but rather just plain grossed out. "Signs", I feel, is probably one of the most horribly underrated films of all time, and this is REALLY a shame. So many reviewers seemed to have completely overlooked the awesome atmosphere of this film, especially with the omninous build-up of the alien invasion and the eerie music played in the background of the film. Perhaps the best out of all of Shalamayan's films. Highly recommended. Rating:  - If doorknobs stump you, you might like this movieNot being a religious person myself, I didn't even realize that the movie was supposed to have a subplot about redemption. All I witnessed was a really bad sci-fi plot. Other reviewers have revealed how the invading aliens could be easily defeated with squirt guns and spit wads, so I don't need to go into that. They've also described the scene where one of these highly intelligent creatures is trapped in a pantry: the door was not locked, but was secured by nailing boards across the door frame after the alien was inside. I haven't read all 1199 reviews, but of those I've read nobody has mentioned that the door opened into the pantry (if my memory serves me well). Therefore, the only thing keeping the alien in the pantry was that he couldn't figure out how a doorknob worked. If you're one who prizes "street smarts" over "book learnin'", then you might appreciate the movie more than I did. That was the only subliminal message I got. Rating: - Acting Was Superb!! I Loved This Movie!!I just read some of the bad reviews for this movie and I just can't believe that so many people are blinded to such a wonderful cast of actors. I felt they acted so "real", not made up. I'm not into all the scary movies with blood and gutts. But, I must say I rate this one right up there with my other number one favorites! Don't watch if you want to see the aliens eating the flesh off people. But do watch if you'd like to see a Great Movie!! Rating: - THE WAY TO TELL THE WORLD THAT THEY'RE OUT THERE!!i loved this movie, the whole deal. peaceful community, normal family, then bam, a huge crop circle right on thier farm. what is it? where did it come from? who made it? not human, they're watching, and they're coming, but not in peace. this movies got great suspense, good visual, and the aliens look crazy freaky. every time i watch it it still gets me. mostly because all this about crop circles is for real, it's based on real life events. so then what's going to happen in the future. who knows? mel gibson is a great actor no doubt and in this film it shows, as with joaquin phoenix great actor as well. love him. once again m. night shyamalan knows how to do it. he tries to bring more than others to the table through his films and he always succeeds. great job. Rating:  - Great movie and some good extra features!The movie was great. When I got a gift card for Christmas one year I knew this was the DVD I wanted to buy. It's one of M Night Shyamalan's best movies (I even think it was better than Sixth Sense). The DVD has an neat bonus footage on it - like a movie made by MNS when he was a kid. It's great to see his vision as a child and how far he has grown. The DVD also has a nice story board to scene feature for certain parts of the movie. It's kinda neat to see how the finished product stacked up against the story boards. However with a movie with this much humor I would have loved to seen some bloopers or outtakes. But then again I say that about every movie. Signs: Warning (2pc) ReviewsMore reviews:Buy Signs: Warning (2pc) Sale Reviews Deals
