This movie wasn't necessarily a bad movie - the entire time watching it, I was trying to figure out what was going on, where the movie was going, etc. The movie kept me intrigued. The acting wasn't bad at all, either.... Full review

Deschanel doesn't deliver an amazing performance, but mostly....The whole "happening" throughout the movie fails to deliver any real sense of danger to the real world, and is confusing and inconsistent.....This movie may actually make you miss the creative genius that used to be Shyamalan....The deaths are a bit predictable by the end of the film, so....Shyamalan create quite well..... ...
