I’ve been a big M. Night Shyamalan fan. I love Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs and even The Village. So I was excited to see the teaser trailer for Lady in the water. It seemed interesting and mysterious. I tried my hardest to stay away from any kind of information about the movie because with this movies, it is usually better to go in clueless and be surprised. However, I did manage to skim through some reviews only to be saddened by the negative comments I read.
But I couldn’t call myself a fan if I didn’t go see the movie at the theater. So I went tonight.
Should you see it? If you like his other movies, definitely! This movie doesn’t have the depth of his other movie. If I had to compare it to one of his other movies, I would say it is like The Village but without the slow parts.
It has suspense, a few scares, an interesting if light and simple plot and quite a bit of humor. The audience laughed at the right times and even clapped on a couple occasions when things went right.
Don’t expect a movie full of twists and surprises and you won’t be disappointed. This is pretty much a fairy tale, and if you go in knowing this, you won’t feel you wasted your money.
