Customer Rating:
Summary: Sci-fi thriller with a twist
Comment: This movie is mostly about us questioning whether there is life on another planet and questioning your faith in God all in one movie . It's a great movie for all members of the family , as long as they are old enough not to be afraid of a M. Night Shyamalan movie in general, as they can be a little frightening , but very interesting!
Customer Rating:
Summary: All you have to fear is fear itself?
Comment: The problem of UFO's and crop circles puzzles a lot of us.
It is clear that calling every siting ball lightening or weather balloons
is no long going to cut it, when the government response is usually
out of proportion to them being 'nothing'?
Movies like this one that prey on fear are probably not really a good thing.
The logistics involved in an interstellar invasion by aliens is such that
only an empty planet is likely to be worth the effort needed.
So even if Aliens exist with superior technology, it isn't likely
they are able or willing to invade....
Customer Rating:
Summary: It's kind of.............meh.....
Comment: It's not a bad movie, it's just not that great either.
It starts out interesting enough.
The acting is fine, the script is fine.
But the ending is kind of lame, and it wont ever hold up against say........the original Alien.
But still, it's a fun way to kill an evening.
I recommend a rental.

Summary: Amazing!
Comment: M. Night Shyamalan is the master!
This movie is excellent! As every M. Night movie is.
Great characters, great acting and a unusual, never been done before story!
Never pass up the chance to see a M. Night Shyamalan classic!

Summary: re-titled: "Inconceivable"
Comment: Ok, there were 2 moments in this movie were I did actually jump or flinch. So, it was effective in that way. I liked the characters and I did feel sadness for their loss.
However, there are definitely problems with this story.... as everyone else has noted. Let me add these:
1) This movie is so politically correct. Why does this farmer or anyone else not have a friggin' gun? It reminds me of Scott Evil, character in Austin Powers movies,--- take a gun and just shoot him! Get it over with!
2) How can aliens that travelled millions of miles to us be confounded by wooden doors or boarded up windows?
3) There is a hella-lot of water on our planet, dumb aliens! Obviously you saw it up from your spaceships. Don't come here.
I will say this: our 10-year old has been interested in seeing a scary movie and so we thought this would be a first one to see. Even the child saw problems with the movie, so it was good that it did generate some critical thought.

Editorial Reviews:
|
From M. Night Shyamalan, the writer/director of THE SIXTH SENSE and UNBREAKABLE, comes the story of the Hess family in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, who wake up one morning to find a 500-foot crop circle in their backyard. Graham Hess (Mel Gibson) and his family are told extraterrestrials are responsible for the sign in their field. They watch, with growing dread, the news of crop circles being found all over the world. SIGNS is the emotional story of one family on one farm as they encounter the terrifying last moments of life as the world is being invaded. "It's easy for a filmmaker to blow up the world -- but what Shyamalan does is much riskier. He tries to blow our minds. I was engaged by every inch of SIGNS." - Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper.
