Ryan M @mccartryan 4d This is a movie you'll only speak of when you remember how bad it is. Until Disclosure Day, this was the movie I used to judge everything else against to see if what I just watched was possibly worse than this. Purely pathetic story with cheesy writing. 22 years later and I finally found a worse movie than this. See more Judah S. @Judah3963 Jun 6 This movie got much more hat than deserved. Its twist was underwhelming and predictable but its atmosphere was appropriately spooky along with its surprisingly enjoyable love story and an overall enjoyable watch (at least for the first time through). The Village may not be the most shocking M Night Shyamalan movie but it suffices as a spooky thriller.

It starts in a very interesting and suspenful fashion, but as the story develops, you begin to realize the failings of the script. The final revelation is not well executed and ultimately misses the mark. See more Cera F @RT54249950 May 7 I saw this when I was in seventh grade and I loved the idea of the monsters in the woods. I thought it was spooky. Then when the big reveal came and she saw the cop car, I was probably the only seventh grader that thought that was really brilliant at the time because I had no idea. I thought it took place in the olden times with monsters and super sharp things on their backs. So since I never saw a scary movie end like that, I thought that was really cool. I get older audiences not appreciating it but I appreciate it for what it did to my little seventh grade brain See more gerald D @RT46512237 Apr 16 Spoiler alert. I totally get the premise of this movie, that is a group of grieving citizens set up their own isolated community away from the big bad modern world. So in order to keep everyone in line and to deter the younger people from wandering out of this created splendid isolation they create the boogieman to strike fear in to the community. In a way this is exactly how the world has always been. Leaders, village elders create and install fear in order to control us. But in the end the film falls flat especially towards the end. Poorly thought out and executed. Shame. See more Read all reviews
