Knifeboy, you're--like--the second person (besides myself) I've ever heard say they like Signs, and the other person is a Christian.
I loved Signs. However! I felt tricked at the end, and not in the good way. I had no spoilers for the film. I never saw the Christian "God knows all, sees all, influences all" message coming. For me, this creepy, well-written, well-acted move has a kind of proselytizing "God knows best" sappy ending.
But still, I enjoyed it. The ending didn't ruin it for me, but it didn't sit well with me either. Like I said, I felt kind of tricked. When I learned later that the director is a Christian it made more sense.
I loved Unbreakable and Sixth Sense too. Hell, I even enjoyed The Village. Found it creepy and very well-acted. And, once again, I didn't see the ending coming. So I enjoyed it. Supposedly, every single other person who saw this film, guessed the twist ending but me...
only movie of his I liked was unbreakable, all his other movies are awful.

We'll fuck standing and we'll fuck then lying, if they had wings we'll fuck them flying, when they are dead and long forgotten we'll dig them up and fuck them rotten.

i hated this movie. theologically speaking, it is simply abhorrent.

I meant that signs was so bad that it outweighs all good he could ever do
Signs is in the top ten worst movies for me, the ending was one of the dumbest things I've ever witnessed, not only was it, as you said, a stupid "god knows best" cop out.. But it didn't even make any sense

lol! Sorry about that. I'd forgotten your earlier statement. :-)
Is it just me, or is this forum slowly turning into a movie themed one?
We've gone from almost 0% movie talk over the past several years.. Into having several threads dedicated to movies
