The Happening (2008)
3/10
A terrible written empty and dull thriller
24 January 2009
I stopped expecting the next Sixth Sense a long time ago. The Happening is a dull and empty thriller. M Night Shymalan tries to get cheap shocks by showing graphic and violent suicides. Terrible Acting, No tension and no suspense makes this movie a miss.

Following the masterpiece that was The Sixth Sense M Night Shymalan made the good Unbreakable. In 2002 he made Signs. Signs had the thrills and the scares but was missing something. In 2004 we were sent to the Village where there were also scares and a great story. All were good movies until the Lady in the Water. I was overcome with Confusion and a headache. Now in the Happening there were no scares and no thrills. M Night Shymalan really seems to be loosing it.

The Happening is not worth seeing. I certainly hope that M Night Shymalan starts making good movies again. I will be seeing The Last Airbender and if it is as bad as this then i am gonna give up on Shymalan. I give The Happening.....
