Lady In the Water
I just saw “Lady in the Water” tonight. Here’s a quick rundown…
Pluses: Very creative and unique plot. Good directing by M. Night Shyamalan in areas such as camera angles, background music, and lighting, etc. Included some of Shyamalan’s typical suspense. Fairly strong acting. Positive overall message.
Minuses: The plot of “Lady in the Water” was unbelievable, even borderline ridiculous at times. That said, Shyamalan should be given many creative props for thinking outside the box and trying something new.
Overall: This movie has received the worst reviews of any of Shyamalan’s movies so far. The plot was far-fetched (though I would personally argue that one shouldn’t expect much else from a fantasy movie). I personally loved “Lady in the Water”, though admittedly it’s definitely not for everybody. I’d give it 4/5 stars.
You Are An INFJ The Protector
You live your life with integrity, originality, vision, and creativity.
Independent and stubborn, you rarely stray from your vision – no matter what it is.
You are an excellent listener, with almost infinite patience.
You have complex, deep feelings, and you take great care to express them.
You would make a great photographer, alternative medicine guru, or teacher.

You liked it — really?
A couple near us walked out and there was a group of teenagers behind us and two of them fell asleep and this was an afternoon show.
I wished I would have asked for my money back — I was uber disappointed.
