Lady in the Water M Night Shyamalan She: I liked it. It wouldn't be a bad movie for kids to see....it wasn't that scary. I loved the characters and how they all interacted as normal people in an apartment complex would act. The 'little' bits of the movie were great. The story of the mythology could have been fleshed out a bit more, but I'm a mythology fan. I rate all movies I see compared to 'Matix II' - at zero. This movie gets a 10. I gave 'Dead Mans Chest' a 15. Sucker:You know all those TV shows that your girlfriend/wife/sigother watch that you can't understand or get interested in...like Lost. Well, this is a picture for them. It was OK. A get-out-of-trouble-free chick flick of a date movie. See this one with her, and she'll have to go to your next explosions movie. I didn't fall asleep (much) and I didn't walk out to sit on the theater steps (as I have done before). Not all of it made any sense, but that's par for the course for fantasy/horror/chick flicks. Best: I bought into the wierd characters. Worst: I didn't buy into the mythology. I'd rate it around the mid point of my 'Matrix II to Casablanca" scale...sorta about the same as the deVinci Code. While She is planning to grab the DVD, I'd say rent it once so you don't have to buy it.
