“..there was talk of this film being Shyamalan's return to form... but if anything this is his worst film to date..”
“..stupefyingly silly new eco-thriller..”
“..one of the worst attempts at end-of-the-world ominousness since the Robot Holocaust battled the Ninja Apocalypse..”
“..for a doomsday thriller, the terror is diluted..”
“..dumbfounding..”
“..big-budget apocalyptic horror movie that has plenty of shocks but no showy special effects..”
“..Being risibly bad, The Happening is at least worth a laugh..”

posted by mini-fig on Jul 27, 2008I still love this movie. It would be my favourite HORROR film. It's even BETTER the second time around.
posted by R on Jan 08, 2009I don't see why everyone hates this movie? It was really good, it had all the variations, it was different. Maybe that's it? Can't handle some "difference". Well I enjoyed it HEAPS
posted by Todd on Jan 08, 2009LOVE it with my life :P. I can't wait to watch it again. Mark Wahlberg is the best, honestly, and he's gorgeous.
