We saw "The Happening" today and I thought it was pretty weak. I liked the music, but that was about it. The acting overall was not great and as Sinister said, Mark Wahlberg didn't seem as solid as he usually is. I thought some of the kill scenes were lame and laughable. I kept thinking "Maximum Overdrive" was done with more class than this flick, LOL. And don't get me wrong, "Maximum Overdrive" rocks. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" /> Also, my wife didn't really like "The Happening" at all and she usually digs Shyamalan's films. She's loves "The Sixth Sense," we both dug "Unbreakable" and we thought "The Village" was okay. Hopefully Shyamalan's next project is more on par with his other films.
