THAT WAS HORRIBLE. ME AND MY FRIEND HAVE A HEADACHE!!!! omg it was horrible, it was like never ending horrible pathetic stupid!I JUST WASTED 2 HRS OF MY LIFE
I loved this movie. Its a beautiful love story, between its main characters and also love for your community. The sacrifices these people made for a "pure" world where their children could be brought up with an innocence hardly anyone alove today could say they experienced as a child is a faciniating look at human psychology.
The majorty of people seemed to really enjoy it! At the other extreme there is a high percentage that hated it! Must be good to provoke such an extreme reaction! I watched it 3 times in a week. Twas that good it was!
Amazing acting, music, costumes, plot. The only thing I would change is extend the ending a little, it was a bit abrupt.
Brilliant film for intelligent people.
Just fabulous!! I always thought that Joaquin Phoenix was a great actor, but now I really think he is one of the best!
I was shocked at how many poeple have commented that if you did not like this movie, it must mean you are unintelligent! What`s not intelligent is describing a movie this predictable as captivating!
In one word....Predictable
Although I wouldn`t tell people not to watch it, it was not as good as I expected. It was fairly boring throughout and incredibly predictable.
Excellent film, original plot!
I read the book Running out of Time and although there are a couple of small similarities, the two stories and everything that happens within are totally different. I doubt the director of this read the book and even if he did, it`s just too different to compare the two.
This movie seems plagiarized from the book, Running Out Of Time, written by Margaret Haddix. I don`t think the plot was original, and yet, no credit was given by the director. Poor.
Great ending. Could have never imagined that it would be so different, not predictable at all.
The movie is for people with some intelligence, as it is a thought-provoking movie. It is not a movie for people who go to the threatre just to get scared! I loved it!
I guess I was disapointed because I expected something more chilling around the village, and I was WAY WRONG on the truth....But the more i think about it, the more I really like this movie.
Very good! Best movie I`ve seen in years.
This movie is the best one that i`ve ever seen! thank you! KOS
It gives you something to think about, especially since there really are places like that in the U.S. where only a few of the twonspeople are aware of the outside world.
The Village was the best movie i have ever seen. i rate it 5 stars!!! after i watched it i couldn`t stop thinking about it. I LOVED IT !!!!!!
This movie is what a movie should be - a feast for the eyes, intelligent, thought provoking, beautifully acted (especailly the two young stars --they both GLOWED), and fascinating. It was scarey without being horrible and taught a lesson without being preachy. If you give it a chance you will be glad you did.
Great movie, although totally different than expected. Great tie in at the end. Read the newspaper article in one of the last scenes and recall how the movie started. Terrific show.
I liked The Village, but the ending didn`t say that much.
M. Night Shyamalan has a genre all his own. As in all his movies, this one kept you guessing the whole way through, while a story of delightful people unfolded before your eyes. His characters are charming, and always a little flawed, giving them humanity.
Awesome movie... can`t wait to watch it again. Great Ending.
A good movie, worth watching. Well made.... but not for those looking for scary moments.
i loved the village!!!!!five stars! the ending was ok and for all of those peole who think this was absolutly horrible, take a closer look and what would you do if u really were one of the people in the village. one of nights best films. so awsome can`t wait to get on dvd.
it wasn`t that good. i thought i was suppose to be scary
i would like this msg gets through to the writer and the director of the movie called "The Village". First of all, please stop the none sence, of making a story and then end it as this whooooole movie is a lie as usual i got sick of it, it just ends with "WHAT??!!!". Secondly please stop showing ur self in the movie im sick of that, who pays you to do a scene? u need money? ill give u some just DO NOT please DO NOT show up in the movie to give us a hint about something. CHEESY MOVIE. p.s. the staff`s shadow showed up one of the scene... UNPROFOSSIONAL at all, hire someone to tell them where to stand... thank you.
This is another great movie by M. Night Shyamalan. I bought the DVD. Bryce Dallas Howard is a beautiful girl, a very good actress and obviously a prodigy of her father.
It was a pretty good movie, but it was too long for me. The story line was good but they should have had more discription.Fuj!@$$$
I thought it was a very thought provoking movie and it kept me engrossed the entire film. Can`t wait for the next one!!!
IT WAS AWSOME! well the first half, I really liked the movie but i just didnt like how they ended. But you should go see it!
Im going to buy this movie on Jan.11th!! Its been a long time since i first watched this when it first came out, so i am really looking forward to watching this movie again and again and again again!
the best movie of 2004
This was a really great, suspenseful movie. People who can`t spell honestly (not awnestly) should not think they`re qualified to criticize a movie. Study your spelling idiots -- no one`s taking you seriously and they never will. Your criticisms are boring (not boreing). Look at your own work before you criticize others.
Who awnestly liked this movie.I sure didnt. Yes it had scary moments but you would expect that from a thriller movie. But I was expecting more scary parts. I only jumped 3 times. The in between parts of it being scary is just sooooo boreing, all they do is talk about something sooo dumb.2 stars. BB
Absolutly mint film! Joaquin Phoenix is hot!
This film is wicked! great film with eye candy too!!
Wonderful, it was all about storytelling but this is no Big Fish however. But those of you who enjoy films about storytelling or deep storylines will deffinitely enjoy this.
The movie "The village" was very good with its story and artists, but I was very astonished, when I saw above the microphone frequently. How can this be happen; I can`t understand this. Regards M.Aksulu
I love the suspense and the characters, especially Bryce Dallas Howard and Joaquin Phoenix -- they were excellent in their roles. Gotta get this one on DVD!
Best movie I`ve seen all year!
Wow I can say I like pretty much all movies to an extent but what was up with the Village.. it dragged on and the storyline was dull.
Night is, plain and simple, a friggin` MASTER. Storyteller, director, writer- whatever, he makes movies a refreshing, transcendent experience. Sorry to the morons who just don`t get it. When you understand the power of fear, when you understand the notion of trying to hide from sorrow, the corruption of innocence, and most of all, when you understand CHARACTERIZATION...maybe then you will understand the village, and a little of night`s magic. I hope he continues to write and direct his own stories, God knows they stand head and heels above the mindless crap Hollywood is spewing these days. Sixth sense, unbreakable, signs, the village -10 out
Fantastic movie, but slow. If you can`t sit through the boring parts, that`s your problem, and you need to take something to help you focus, but if you can sit through and listen to and watch it develop, you`ll realize the genius of this film.
WOREST MOVIE OF THE YEAR !!!!!
this was such an amazing movie! i haven`t been scared like this since signs...GREAT MOVIE! the twists were outstanding...
slow movie great ending
Complete garbage. If you`re reading this reviews, hopefully you read mine. The movie has potential, I`ll give it that but honestly, it builds and builds you up the whole time and then the "Surprise Ending" is a complete let down. I was disappointed and made me take the movie into a whole new context. After leaving, the good side was that I could laugh at the movie in it`s "Scary parts" or some of the characters (hooded girl) ... waste of time.
really good, worth seeing!
