So, you watch Lady in the Water and you're like, "Really? Really. At least the can't get much worse than this." OK. M. Night. I appreciate that you tried to tell an unconventional story but you're still messed it up. And it's not like you can't tell an unconventional story and make a good movie at the same time, I mean, Burn After Reading is a good example. And if you really want to break the rules of conventional film making, you could make something like the Holy Mountain. I've got a good idea for unconventional story: how about at the end, it turns out that the lady was just crazy, and that everything they were doing was complete false. One of the characters is a critic, who we're all supposed to hate, because apparently criticism is bad, But the biggest problem with this movie is that it's honestly just a cluster. The only things we're supposed to care about, are things that we're told to care about. It's just nonsense. It's just an absolute mess. And if vilifying the critic in the movie wasn't bad enough, M. Night casts himself as the chosen one; a writer whose works will change the world, even though it is not yet understood in his present time. Does this mean he's trolling? Does this mean that he's been, like, trolling since The Sixth Sense, and he just decided, "You know what? I'm gonna go downhill." Maybe he'll pull a Jean-Claude Van Damme effect, where he'll make a buncha bad movies in a row and then something that not that bad, and then people will go crazy. Anyway, M. Night kills off the critic, because he doesn't like critics. Overall rating: why?
