Summary: EXCELLENT! Tense, edge-of-seat, scary (what you don't see..)
Review: If you love to be scared, love to think, and love and believe in UFO's, you will LOVE this movie! I saw this movie the first day it came out, and I am SO GLAD that I did! It scared the heck of me! Like they have said (i.e. Hitchcock): "What you don't see, scares more". The sounds and what you do not see are the things in this film, NOT what you see, which terrifies you! It is well-written, well-directed, and well-acted! Everybody is top notch. The film's story: aliens are on earth, and more are approaching Earth, as a minister (MEL GIBSON) tangles with his feelings after his wife dies. It seems the End of the World is near! I don't want to say too much, but I have enjoyed this director's work; I LOVED "Sixth Sense" (as did most people), I liked "UNBREAKABLE" very much! (contrary to what people have said and think, and it is a shame "Unbreakable" was a disappoint at the box office), and now "SIGNS", which is another masterpiece and up there with these other titles. (I have the first 2 movies on DVD, and plan on purchasing this title too!) I am beginning to like this director more than Spielberg - and liken him to Spielberg; matter-of-fact, I used to love Spielberg's films, but now admire, and rather watch, this director's movies more than Spielberg's films! This director has a different style and way of telling a story: always different, unique, mysterious, twists and turns, and you never know the complete ending until the VERY end of the film (the very last second!) (always a surprise ending, a twist)! When everything comes together! Trust me, if this film does not make you think, does not make you squirm, does not make you tense, and does not scare you, then you are either dead, tired, crazy, idiotic, stupid, or not appreciative of fine filmmaking and workmanship, and excellent storytelling! This movie made close to $300 million dollars in the USA, which should tell you this is an excellent movie and destined to be a classic!, and that this is a great movie, where people feel it is well made, and definitely puts a GREAT scare into you! All I can say is: BRAVO! EXCELLENT! SEE IT! BUY IT! (Which I intend to do when it comes out January 7, 2003, which you should also!) Thank you! -Paul "Gringo Latino" A.

Summary: Give It A Break!
Review: Whatever happened to the good ol' days when we could watch movies and not nit-pick them to death? Ooh, scary bumps and eerie music. Remeber this is a B-Movie homage. Rent/Buy Signs and have a good time. Everyone just calm down and watch this movie with not too hard of a plot to follow, go to bed and think someone's standing on your roof. Let's hope there's actually no one out there.

Summary: Incredible
Review: This is the most unique movie I have ever seen. There is just a feeling of creepyness that you just cant get anywhere else. I don't even know how to explain it. You just have to see it. I saw it in theatres, and there was a point when I had to use the bathroom desperately, and I could not get up because the movie was so captivating. This is a MUST HAVE!!!

Summary: Shyamalan does it again
Review: It's probably apt that a film about the human tendency to (mis)interpret things should ultimately have very little to do with the crop circle story seemingly pitched by its trailer. Reviewing this film without giving too much away is almost impossible, so all I will say is this: M. Night Shyamalan is a master storyteller. More than any other writer/director working today, he seems to understand the awesome power of a story well-told. It's a rare pleasure to be confidently able to hand yourself over to a filmmaker for two hours to be toyed with, manipulated, deceived and misled, and ultimately stunned by a revelation. But Shyamalan somehow manages to do all of that every time. In the wasteland of predictable trash that flows daily out of Hollywood's slave pits, he reminds us that a good story can still hold us completely in its thrall. Mel Gibson as a minister might be a little hard to buy here, and the overt religiosity of Shyamalan's particular take on 'serendipity' might push some viewers away. But this is still a very good film, and love or hate Shyamalan's personal philosophy, you still have to thank him for that.

Summary: Signs of the times
Review: This movie, much like Six Sense and Unbreakable is will not be liked by all. Although there are holes in the plot I think the acting is excellent and the theme as well as the tone for the movie is good as well.

Summary: Disappointed
Review: Shyamalan's epic seems to be The Sixth Sense. Since then he seems to have been going down, from the okay Unbreakable to this. I can understand the negativity behind Unbreakable but at least it wasn't as corny as Signs. It had too much of a sitcom feel to it. I also thought the creature in this movie looked too similar to the goblin from Spider Man. (I'm referring to the movie and comic book.)
I think Shyamalan does have potential. But he needs to stop spitting out movies and take his time writing one real good one.

Summary: One of my favorites!
Review: I absolutely loved this movie. I didn't know what to expect when I went in to see it, so I had no pre-conceived notion of what it was about. The movie is really about someone who lost faith in the world and life (sure, religion is in there, but I felt it was just an overall feeling of being let down by life). The science fiction aspect was not the main point of the film, yet it was very eerie and creepy!! I loved how everything tied together. I don't understand how people go into movies trying to pick apart every detail and LOOK for flaws. NO movie is perfect, so just sit back and enjoy the ride. :)

Review: Signs was unbelievable!! I saw the movie 5 times and it still made me jump off my seat!!There were a minimum of funny parts. When I first saw the movie, I hopped right out of my seat.

I gaurentee it 5 STARS!... If you have read my review and not seen the movie, buy it on DVD or VHS Jan.7.To Those who insulted the movie are lying, take my advice and watch this movie.The music creeps you out and makes you want to shut your eyes for the greatest movie of them all, SIGNS!...
