Signs was the best thriller I've seen in a long time. I haven't been on the edge of my seat like that since Blair Witch. This movie will put you in all kinds of tense situations and cause you to want to close your eyes. Let's just say that I'm not going near any corn fields for a little while.
To the dismay of the other Popcorn Pals, I thought the writing and direction was wonderful. Doug thinks there were holes all through it but I think he thinks too much. We even got to see the director play a Veterinarian! This guy deserves all of the attention he's getting. You can count on his trademark surprise ending in this movie as well.
Gibson and Phoenix did really well together as brothers. I liked the point that was made about keeping your faith - it was a really interesting way to make it.
I had a bit of a headache when I left the theater but the pain was well worth it - I had fun. This is a movie you should see in the theater. |
