The Happening

[Stevehere]

Okay I like the idea that it goes into the main plot of the film by having..

Show Hide

Them builders all jump off the building site so it shows that its just started happening

But the many deaths in it which you see is quite sickening, like you

Show Hide

see that woman show a video that someone recorded of some man getting his arms ripped off by lions and then eaten

I just don't like films like these where the maker thinks up as many gruesome deaths as he/she can and then uses them in the film and actually shows the gruesome suicides to us.

I don't know why but it makes me feel sick watching it and I'm not even halfway through it yet.

Anyway brb soon and ill give the rest of my views on the film and see if it gets any better.

I dont like it, It's just... Lacklustre?

I'd give it two stars, at the most.

I'm looking forward to the ending and how the ending pulls off don't tell me thoguh because its obvious its gonna end on a cliffhanger or something after about 1 million people die in it.

And that is where you will be sorely disappointed, just like every viewer of the film. There is somewhat of a "cliffhanger" at the conclusion of the picture, but "it", that everybody watching expects, never happened, leaving everyone extremely disappointed and unsatisfied. I'm not surprised the screenplay was rejected several times, and I doubt any execs' are going to give Shayamalan a look-in after yet another flop, not only as a film, but monetarily as well.

I enjoyed the film but it didn't touch M. Nights Shalaballas golden level, as it did with the 6th sense. =P

Also where is the realism in this film..

Show Hide

When the one group all become infected and start killing themselves with that pistol, how many bullets do they think that little pistol can hold!!!

Actually scratch that I think it was a glock

I wouldn't bother picking the film apart, there are too many flaws. It would take an age, but... if you want to raise your post count a couple of hundred - go ahead.

Yeah thanks for putting that into spoilers so no one would read it. Grow up, I can post as many posts as I like about this film while I am/was watching it, it isn't against the rules.

Back ontopic:

Yeah really crap ending and why the hell did they have to

Show Hide

kill off them two teenagers without being killed by the toxic whatever.

Plain stupid.

And what the hell at

Show Hide

"Three Months Later"

and then they say that

Show Hide

the toxic stuff stopped the day after we saw it and then it goes onto a different country where it starts to happen.

Too rushed at the end and I'd give it a

1/10 rating

I was ripping the film, not you.

I'm talking about the last bit you said to me if I want to raise my post count, go ahead.. so basically you were saying I'm spamming..

Sorry if I'm getting the wrong side of things but it looks like your saying I'm spamming or something.
