Grade: B+

Country: USA

Director: Shyamalan

Review

may be the best directed film by m. night shyamalan. still think that the sixth sense is his most enjoyable, but this one is up there. a bit of a disappointing ending, but i think that’s to be expected with the genre. everything from close encounters to 2001 to war of the worlds lets me down with their endings so i pretty much shrugged this one off as just part of the genre in that regard. what didn’t disappoint, though, was shyamalan’s building of tension through framing, especially. strangely, the other film i think of when it comes to building tension through framing/cutting is the remake of when a stranger calls. this one was better of course. if you’re a fan of shyamalan’s work then this one shouldn’t disappoint.
