I recently went to see the M. Knight Shyamalan movie "The Happening" starring Marky Mark Wahlberg. It was a cool horror flick about this strange unknown thing that affects people by making them kill themselves. I'm not a hater or anything but maybe there was something about this movie I was supposed to get but didn't. We pretty much sat through the movie watching a bunch of stuff happen but nothing really "happened". It kinda reminded me of Cloverfield where you just watch stuff go on then its over. Maybe that's what M. Knight was going for. I kinda think it was one of those movies where you just have to emerse yourself in it and feel the terror that the characters are feeling, and with that it does a really good job. All in all I would say if you're into that kind of character study, sorta like a "what would people do if this really happend" kinda thing (a'la I AM Legend) then I would recommend this movie. But if you're looking for random foolishness and mindless entertainment go see The Incredible Hulk. HULK SMASH !!!!!!
