  • To say that Ebert hated "The Village" would be a gross understatement...

  • Your favorite band sucks, and you have terrible taste in movies.

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Yeah I just got back from seeing it. let me say, I'd rather have my eyed dug out with a rusty grapefruit spoon than see that movie again. I'd rather watch barney than see that insipid piece of crap again</div>

<div style='font: 14pt "Sans Serif"; text-align: justify; padding: 0% 15% 0% 15%; '>There are a few twists actually. But the suprise ending was a little unsuprising for me. I guessed it as a possibility (because I, like everyone, go into M. Night movies expecting the unexpected), but the rest of the movie was still very good. Bryce Howard might get nominated for her work here...</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Tahoma; text-align: left; '>Really? I liked the movie, but didnt like her. I didnt think she pulled off the whole blind thing very well, her eyes moved too much and she was aware of things around her, it seemed to me.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Sixth Sense was great, Unbreakable was mediocre but saved by a great ending, Signs was just terrible. It's the trend that scares me away from The Village :-)</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>sixth sense had a good ending. that's about it. not really a great movie. Unbreakable was my favorite of his movies. signs was just an all around suck fest. oh what a twist at the enmmd swing away mother fucker. the village was like being raped by a 3 ton gorilla.</div>
