I think M. Night S. is highly misunderstood. People who have seen his former films like Sixth Sense and Signs are thinking that all his films have to do with scaring someone. I feel that is not all he is hoping to accomplish. He wants his fans to think and talk about his films whether they like them or not. An example that I feel achieved a lot in my mind was "The Village". It had a lot of substance going for it, such as suspense, great characters, intriguing plot and a surprise ending. It may not have been what people thought it was going to be as the conclusion, but I loved it and was shocked by it.
I don't really know where I was going with that...except I love his films. Scratch that. I did not care for Lady in the Water. When Devil comes out on DVD I will check it out.
