He's probably a victim of setting his own benchmark too high. The Sixth Sense has turned out to be almost iconic film making and everything he's done since has had the burden of expectation on it. It kind of reminds of the England football team. Sixth Sense was Shyamalan's 1966.:)
I like his movies. They're always entertaining and gripping for me. I just watched Devil last night and really enjoyed it. Hitchcock it ain't, but yet another interesting premise. The Happening was also novel. Perhaps we should just accept his style, watch his movies for what they are and, fingers crossed, he'll produce another classic along the way.
