Rating: Summary: CREEPY!! KEEPS YOU AT THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT!!!!!!! Review: The movie is really suspenseful and definetly not a "B" movie!!!! I saw with my friend in theatres and immediatly wanted to just turn around, walk back in, and watch it again! I am dying of anticipation for wanting to own it! You can watch this movie again and again and NEVER get bored, you'll be scared the whole time! Though there are some holes in the script, there was a good mix of funnyness and suspense. I really want to say that if you don't really like scary movies (Like I don't) don't shy away from this one!! The music is what makes most of it though, it's soooo creepy! The only dissapointment I had with the film is tht the aliens didn't look like I suspected, they weren't as "high tech" as in other movies, there wasn't many special effects. Don't let that get you down though, you don't really need special effects for a movie like this!
Rating: Summary: Scariest so far!!! Review: AWESOME MOVIE!
Rating: Summary: Mixed Feelings Review: I saw this movie when it came out in the theater. The fact that I live very close to the county that this movie was set, added a little spookyness to it.As far as the movie is concerned, it was one of those movies that has you on the edge of your seat, only to make you wonder what happened. There are things in the movie that simply don't add up. For those who have seen it, remember what Mel Gibson's brother did at the end? Simple humans would have been able to get out of that situation, yet alone an advanced species! Overall, I liked the movie, but it lacked in the realism department. Plus, the ending was too much of a quick drop. I'd recommend that you rent this movie first, and then buy it if you like it. This way, you have some insurance that you're not stuck with a movie you don't like.
Rating: Summary: This movie was very lame. Review: This movie was lame. The only good part was when they first showed the alien. Very boring movie. Aliens can travel through space, but cannot open a wooden pantry door? Poorly written.
Rating: Summary: Awesome Movie! Review: I`m pretty tired of people not seeing the real point of this movie. It`s not about some rural folks shooting up aliens, which I am very happy not to see one of those again. The movie isn`t soley based on the aliens invading. The real point of this movie is about belief, and how sometimes, it takes huge things to bring faith back into something. So before you say this isn`t a good movie, think about and learn what the movie`s message is. I no doubt give this movie 5 out of 5 stars!
Rating: Summary: a b movie with a well known actor Review: first of all let me say that this is a b movie that happens to star mel gibson. this alone will make most people feel this isnt a b movie, yet it is. the story is basically aliens come to earth and attack people. this is not a bad thing though, i happen to be a b movie fan(i have seen troll 2 more times than i can count). this movie is pretty good and actually makes you jump at times, unlike most of todays "horror" movies. Yet there is problems with it, i feel the way everything works out in the end is sort of cheezy, i wont ruin the ending but most people after watching it will know what i mean, and some of the humor isnt funny at all. but overall quite good.
Rating: Summary: A great movie Review: I saw this movie in theaters, and am impatiently waiting for it to come out on DVD. When I first went to see "Signs" I honestly wasn't expecting much, but I was totally blown away. If you have ever liked anything Hitchcock (my personal favorite, "The Rear Window" you will love "Signs". I'd recomend this to anyone, even if you aren't into scary movies. "Signs" has this wonderful suspense to it, and unlike many Mel Gibson movies, minimal violence.
Rating: Summary: Signs is wonderful Review: `"Signs" Well, this was a big surpise. I really didn't expect a plot so deep and meaningful.I really felt the pain and closeness of this family. I was so use too the big productions that I didn't realize how much I missed the close and personal effect of movie making. Nothing is perfect but this movie in my opinion was as close to perfect as can be. The emotions were real and genuwine. I have never felt so moved from a modren film. I saw Signs three times I would gone more if I had the time.
Rating: Summary: 'B' Movie?? Review: First off a "B" movie is a low budget film which was used to be on the end of a double bill back in early days of hollywood cinema. Not any film about aliens. And since there are stars like Gibson and Pheonix and a big named director producing it, it seems had to believe it can be called a B movie.
Rating: Summary: Too-Speilburgy, not Shyamalan-ian enough Review: After "I see dead people," this director had a very hard act to follow. *Unbreakable* was disappointing to some, good to others, but it still had an originality that is lacking in *Signs* You know that cliche Speilburg thing when actors stand bug-eyed, mouths agape, as they try to comprend some grandiose CGI effect, to John William's signature swelling telling you how to feel? Well, there's a lot of that kind of stuff going on, and the punchline is so schmaltzy (bascially--SPOILER ALERT--belive in God and souls and other theological stuffs) that the movie is unintentionally funny. Shyamalan does kill the soundtrack here and there (his singature dramatic effect), and the cinematography is stunning. This is a beautifully shot film. But in the end, the cheeky plot and the capitulation to Hollywood excess (again, that "wow that is an impressive CGI" method acting technique--I guess they go to the Grand Canyon to learn how to act so astonished) ruins this film. Yes, there are good spooky moments. Yes, the acting is quite good. But Shaymalan is starting to become a parody of himself . . . and that is truly sad to watch.
