Again, somebody's anal.

I actually did just see this movie.

Besides some interesting ideas it brings up, I didn't really enjoy it.

It dragged far too much, the characters weren't all that likable, and some stupid idiot kept SCREAMIING "oh my gosh!!! ahhh!!!" everytime something scary happened.

Adrien Brody now creeps me out.

I wouldn't say this movie was completely worthless, as I still enjoy Shyamalan's style. Also, if you want something that's clean besides some violence, that is again the case here (something about Shyamalan that I like). However, the convictions of the characters were far too wishy-washy, and the social commentary it gave wasn't developed enough.

And, it wasn't even all that entertaining in the process like I, Robot (and The Bourne Supremacy, for that manner) was.

Rent it, but don't waste the money to see it in theaters. Especially in Goshen.

I'm sorry that you seem to have something against me, victim.

On a side note, I love Jesus, my mother and my girlfriend very much... and you all must go see Napoleon Dynamite.
