The Happening

Definitely one of the better American movies there’s been for a very long time. Instead of repeating tired old tropes as usual, this is all original and keeps you gripped from beginning to end with a fascinating storyline. Unsure of why the bad reviews, but maybe these people just want tried and tested old plots to keep them entertained, and just don’t want something new. Strange but true, enjoy.

The movie is very good, don't care about the reviews.
This is what happens when people are influenced by reviews.
Have your own opinion without being influenced.

I watch this after 12 years since everyone seems to hate this movie... but finally decided to watch it... now it does have many mistakes and stuff... maybe my expectations where really low cause I actually enjoy this movie... social distancing to survive? Over populated planet? Ring any bells?

Won’t be buying this one but wasn’t as bad as everyone said it was

Best comedy I've watching in a long time.
Much like hot dogs, this movie gets a bad rep, and I can totally understand, as it IS a terrible movie. But it's one of those so bad it's great movies. The dialogue is weird, but quotable, "planning to kill me in my sleep? - What? No!". The acting is bad (which makes it great). And strangely, the movie has no problem showing people [spoiler] killing themselves [/spoiler], but rather than swearing, a characters says "cheese and crackers".

I know this movie have some problems. But i always enjoyed it when i watched the movie. I think the movie is underrated here.

I waited 10 years to watch this because everyone said it was awful. Not a bad flick after all. If you like Stephen King or M. Night Shyamalan then you might like this.

this feels a bit like a parody of horror films at times and because of that it's hard to know whether i'm supposed to be taking it seriously or not at any given moment. but it's definitely entertaining. knowing the cast can actually act (sometimes.....) and that m night shyamalan can do great things directorially (sometimes) makes me think that maybe everyone just had fun being ridiculous with this movie in the production phase and the result is a quirky, melodramatic horror.

love that these people couldn't manage to socially distance effectively at all - i think watching this in 2021 made it a lot funnier to see people screaming about needing to avoid large groups while also saying not to split up or get separated.

This film is worth sitting through to its conclusion. While its slow pace invites nitpicking criticism (and Mark W.'s acting is a familiar target), the film gels in the final 20 minutes. I was pleased that I didn't give up.

I just like almost every movie i see, more or less, but hey this was bad. Just left me empty, could have been structured so much better. I usually like Wahlberg, but maybe not his best performance here.

Plants Avenge of Humans in this film.
