M. Night Shymalan
He made a bunch of really brilliant scary movies: the Sixth Sense, Signs, the Village. And then, he started making movies that were disappointingly stupid: lady in the Water and just watched Split. This was so dumb that it was hard to care enough to follow it closely. What a sad ending to a filmmaker who seemed so promising 20 years ago. The same might be said for me, I suppose.

Sixth Sense was wonderful. Signs would have been 10 minutes if anyone had a pump-action shotgun. And the "twist" was less than engaging. Plus I don't think Mel Gibson was too invested in that role.
ReplyDeleteI will say that Unbreakable is an interesting take on the superhero origin, and the twist in that film worked. But it was far from perfect.
I didn't see Split or Glass
