M. Night Shyamalame’s The Happening
The Happening sucks. I can sum up the plot with the following sentence: a bunch of people start walking backwards, and then they die. If you read the previous sentence, I just saved you about nine or ten dollars. Also, if any other critic online gives this movie a rating of >1 star, then you will know that person is full of shit.
What was really annoying about this movie were the multitudinous unnecessary elements that were constantly being introduced (i.e. crazy old woman with doll in bedroom, the guy calling Alma’s phone, etc.). It is almost as if M.N.S. put a bunch of nouns in a Santa hat and drew them out to fill the boring plot.
Basically, this movie is like paying for an expensive nap, and the only other thing I regret after seeing it is that I didn’t have a third thumb to give this crap three thumbs down.

I am offended that you did not like the Happening. Perhaps, I can give you a sum of money to see it again. Hopefully, then, you will like it more than you did the first time.
