Terrible movie!!!
There are some good points about The Village, but theyre overrun by the dreadful feeling of being cheated when you learn the twist. Somehow, one gets the feeling that Shyamalan is desperately trying to do a repeat of the Sixth Sense, and keeps falling embarassingly short.
Good points in the movie .. fairly natural acting by Weaver and co .. and one genuinely scary moment in the first half of the movie.
Arghhhh the twist in the second half spoils it all, you come away feeling cheated. Supposedly, there are some spooks in the woods beyond the village, and nobody is allowed to cross the boundaries into the woods for fear of the things that one does not speak of. Thats the director taking himself a bit too seriously. Unbreakable was disappointing, but this one is so bad, that I have really started to believe Shyamalan got some real good help with the Sixth Sense.
Anyway, so dont go watch this one.. I wouldnt recommend it at all.
