Title: Just Saw The Village
Post by: Entreri117 on July 30, 2004, 09:18:36 PM
Man, this movie really disappointed me.  With the exception of the surprise at the end, IMO this movie really sucked.  Definitely not worth my $8, and definitely not worth my time.

I won't spoil it for everyone, but if you want to know what happens and why I think it really sucked, my AIM is Xearo117.

VERY disappointing. However, if you go watch the movie with an open mind, you may enjoy it. I went into the movie with certain expectations, and I was fed something entirely different.

You'll understand what I'm saying once you watch it

During the middle of the movie i kept thinking to myself "why am i putting myself through this". it was really that bad.

well, two ways to look at it

If this was his first film, this would actually be a very good film

But becuase this is his 4th film? It's disappointing to his fans, who kinda already knew about the twist ending a month or so before the movie dropped.


Anywayz, rumour has it the cast went back to film another ending...

just go in with an open mind and dont expect ANYTHING huge....lol, thats all i can say

also read a review that said "Every village needs an idiot -- and M. Night Shyamalan is hoping it's you"(horror.com) <----pretty much sums it up

I have learned alot from being in this forum...............NEVER LISTEN TO ANYBODY about.....well anything really. 

I have bought albums which where awful because I heard they where good here, I have bought albums which peeps have said where poor and I liked......its different tastes.  I am sure this film is gunna be dope and I cant wait to go and see it.  Sure the end is suppose to be a bit of a let down but I bet the film is dope overall.

like i told Kain.... from the opening scene, i guessed the ending....i wasn't sure of it until the middle.....the movie all makes sense, it's jsut that if you go in expecting a gore infested monster movie, you've picked the wrong director

Wow, I just saw this today, and it sucked cock.
*SPOILERS*








The reason I hated it so much was because it was like the director completely wasted the audience's time.  Why sit through 2 hours of bullshit when it wasn't even real at the end?  And I predicted it towards the middle of the movie too.  Other than that, the movie was fucking boring, I wanted to go to sleep a couple of times during it.  What a piece of shit.

so there aren't any monsters ? the only reason I wanted to watch that movie was to see what the monsters looked like , so if someone can confirm there non-existance (pm me or whatever) that would be really great

shit I liked it.  I can understand how people didnt like it though because the story did kinda go from Jaquiem Pheonix to the blind girl but I still though it was good. 

I kinda guessed the story too but I didnt wanna believe it because I thought it was far too simple.  THe monsters where the people in the village trying to keep everyone else in The Village, I kinda knew but what I didnt know was the whole 'Year' thing.  With it being set in 1885 or sumit like that I thought it was good the way it showed everyones problems from the outside world when they opened up the black case, that was good.  I also actually like the way one of 'the monsters' attacked the blind girl, I was like wooooah shit they are real...thought that was good. 

And I actually loved the way The Village could continue because the girl who left was blind and she couldnt tell anybody what the outside world was like.  All in all I thought it was very good.
