M. Night Shyamalan
I was just thinking how weird it is to really like and really dislike Night Shyamalan in the same week.
I saw Avatar : The last Airbender and i thought it was a good interpretation of the anime. The visuals and the small changes he made made sense to me. Happy to see it was not a childish interpretation of a good story. Lot of people didnt like it but since the anime is such an incredible source of stories, at least he told the story without ruining the fan's pride, in my opinion. The fire nation he portrayed is much more interesting than the one in the series - Dev Patel is a great Zuko.
Than i realized i really kinda like his sense of aesthetics - I believe "Lady in the water" is a simple and great movie. "The Village" was good too, so it was "Unbreakable" . "Six sense" was good for those who werent familiar with Asian horror, but still scored high points with little Haley Joel ... Oh, Stuart Little was cute !
Then, the tv special broadcasted "Signs". For the hairy balls of Zeus, that was so bad ! Great potential, but so, so bad ! Then i remember i saw another of this movies recently and went searching for the name... Gosh, 'The happening" was so ... so not good !! Good idea, but bad executed. What should we do about him? Is this "Devil" movie any good? That can help his career !
I just hope to see more of his good work, so i will go looking for this "Devil" and watch to see if Mr Night Shyamalan is back on track. Wish him success in making good stories into good plots and into great movies.
