tv and movies: the village

that's all i've been posting about lately. oh well. i hope i can help people to make good choices, is all. on that note.

do not go see the village. do not. do not do not do not. unless you're being paid to see it (at least $10/hr), or maybe you're on a date and really terribly told movies with pathetic plot twists gets her hot. m night shaydflkjamnalan is nothing but a hackneyed hack. schlock. i need more yiddish to express how bad he is now.

the movie is 120 minutes long. i spent most of it wishing it were over already. the premise isn't that bad. the whole truth behind the village is an interesting idea that could have become a solid movie. sadly, it did not. the twist is so predictable. what's worse is that one, after having considered it as a possibility, discards it as being too easy, or too stupid, or too something. it's pathetic. m night is a one trick pony. up until now, he's performed that one trick rather well. it's over. over. i will never see another of his films.

i loathe this movie. he can't be proud of this piece of festering shit with a cloud of flies over it. apparently all the critics hate it too. thank god.

my friend, pardo, on the other hand, really liked it. he said he was enthralled. he particularly enjoyed the character development. to which i responded, what character development? the twist in signs was bad, but the ride was great. in the village, both the storytelling and the surprise are painfully ungood.

ericthehodgeheG: i am positive that you liked it only because you saw how much i was hating it
Apardo04: ive considered it as a reason but but im discounting it
