Signs, Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, and The Village were all very good. -- nm - nubby Jul 16, 06:58
I subscribe to the theory that each one of his movies is progressively worse than the last. But, I find Unbreakable more rewatchable than 6th Sense -- nm - Beryllium Jul 16, 06:40 8
- I disagree. Unbreakable was better than 6th Sense. The Village was better than Signs. Hell, Lady in the Water was better than Signs. Still haven't - Jim Jul 16, 06:56 4
  - the Happening had potential, then went to shit about halfway through. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 16, 06:58 1
    - Sixth Sense has a special place in my heart, but The Happening is in second place for enjoyment - Guigue Jul 16, 07:03
  - Signs is my favorite of his -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 16, 06:58 1
    - Of what I've seen (which is all except Happening), it's my least favorite. -- nm - Jim Jul 16, 06:59
- 6th sense loses quite a bit because of the twist. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 16, 06:41 2
  - One fo the movies I was highly impressed with was The Others (Kidman's movie) - Will Hunting Jul 16, 06:44 1
    - I have the DVD, but have not watched it since I saw it in the theater. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 16, 06:45
the mistake with the Village, is that it was advertised as something it wasn't. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 16, 06:39 4
- It was marketed horribly, that's for sure. But I loved it nonetheless. -- nm - Jim Jul 16, 06:45 1
  - I liked it, after being pissed off in the theater, upon reflection - groiny Jul 16, 06:47
- That was the point in time where his default 'twist' became the story instead of the movies - Will Hunting Jul 16, 06:42 1
  - IIRC, it drew me to the theater expecting a horror flick. - groiny Jul 16, 06:43
