The Happening (M. Night Shyamalan, 2008)

This is laughable, simply and plain idiotic. Movies about nature turning against the mankind are usually pretty cool, especially because you don't really expect to see another Birds. But this one is ridiculous, it's kind of drama that wants to be horrifying but it just turns into moronic family-shit mess with "environmental" message. Of course. And yes, love also conquers everything.

Basically everything is horrible, most of all (entire!) cast and the music. Whenever it gets into soft mood, some idiotic sentimental scene follows. It's kind of pattern and it's good because you can prepare yourself to start laughing.

I give this crap rating of 2 although it hardly deserves even 1. But I'm adding additional point because at least director was smart enough to got rid of John Leguizamo in the first half. Really felt bad for the guy, he's even worse than Mark Wahlberg.

2/10
