Alright so I went to the store the other day to see what horror movies would be on sale and stuff to get low and behold The Happening was on sale for $5, so I picked myself up a copy not fully knowing what I was getting myself into and hoped for the best.
Here is the storyline brought to you by IMDB "A strange, horrible and unprecedented cris begins in Central Park. A high school science teacher, his wife and a young girl do what they can to survive it."
By the way people this is an M. Night Shyamalan film...
One minute into the film the acting already reeked beyond belief... In fact through out the rest of this movie the acting stunk. M. Night really shot himself in the face here with this film; it seems like it was rushed when being made... which should never be done.
Continuity is key but apparently the audience won't seem to notice that the two women of the group following the lead characters in the spilt up turn into guys in the next scene...
The she now hes as seen in this picture below...
Air born illness comes what do you do?
A. Runaway to the next town
B. t it out and hope for the best
C. Get ahold of a f*cking gas mask and put the thing on!!!
If you answered C. you are correct....
These ladies definitely know how to survive an air born epidemic.
One thing I will say is I do appreciate the concept of this film; for some reason I enjoy epidemic films and another thing... now I want a mood ring because those things are just too epic and fun to play with...
Rating? I give this film a 4 out of 10.... this film desperately needs to be remade with better actors and directing.
