The worst twist ending ever. I thought I was watching a monster movie as that was my intention and thats what was advertised but they sure did fuck that up.
Figuring that this movie would have a twist ending, I made up a stupid twist for it in my head at the beginning of the movie, one that was so over the top silly that no decent filmmaker would possibly put in their flick...
... and sadly, I actually guessed correctly.
Whoever made this movie needs to get in contact with that one guy who made The Sixth Sense. Now that guy could make a great ending!
But I'm not just lowering the score because of the horrid finale, but also for the horrid beginning and middle that you have to sit through to make it to the SHOCKING end. (Bruce Willis has been an alien that can't open doors the entire time! *gasp!*)
Wow were do I begin. This movie started off good tan got really bad really fast. The ending......What the fuck M. Night. Im all for twists but this. Well what the hell they are probably aliens too but the aliens live with us the whole time and our planet is actually a hologram. Stop with the insane twists that make no sense.

This movie is so lame. I really thought that i was going to see a real horror film when my friends told me this was scary...guess not :(
Ah yes, here it is: the beginning of Shamalamadingdong's downfall.
This movie starts off so goddamn good, but the two most super obvious twists rear their ugly heads and ruin the hell out of what felt like the beginning of a thrilling masterpiece. The final frame was frustrating as all.
Bryce Dallas Howard's sightless trip through the woods was actually pretty sweet, but not as creepy or as engaging as it was intended to be.
Ever since this movie, we've had let down after let down. So c'mon Shyamalan, don't anally rape us again with The Last Airbender. Pleeeease?
strange things happenin' down at the old village with no medications, yellow jackets, cute blind girls, and odd romance in the brew.
there could've been much more to this, but it was pretty cool.
i was never really wanting to watch this movie because knew the ending because of scary movie 4 but we watched it in my english class and that it was okay we lauhed at it alot!!! it wass okay....
one of the worst confusing, shocking but rubbish endings I have ever seen. Yes confusing films are fun and what not, and I'm sure it was making some comment on our dependence on the modern society, but come on! the adverts made it look good, and its not really

This was not what I expected at all as the movie went on it wrapped it self into confusion and it has the stupidest ending i've ever seen! And it says this is a horror movie! There is nothing horror in this at all, the movies about these weird monsters in the forrest but it turns out theres only one scene in which the monsters come to the screen for a bit of scare but that was only liturally 6mins! This film bored me silly it is seriously boring BORING! Don't waste your time watching this. I'm going to be watching the exorcist tonight A REAL HORROR!

I remember seeing this in the theater and thinking, "What utter shit." You ever meet someone who like the exact opposite things you do? The only person i know who enjoyed this POS also liked Signs and the stand, both of which i detested. If you liked signs then watch this. If not, you've been warned.
Contrary to the negative user reviews, this movie is by far the best Shyamalan movie I’ve ever seen.
The first twist was amazing. The second one was alright, slightly cliché, but alright. Then it turned into a love story in the middle of some weird woods. I mean, there was so much genre switching in this movie how could you not at least like it?
I get why people hate it based on their love for his older work. I totally understand that. But if you’re a newcomer to Shyamalan with low expectations, this is probably the best of his movies to start with.
Eh, it wasvery disappointing. You almost think it might be good, then oops just kidding its not. you might want to see this movie if you've run out of movies to watch or your really really really bored. but its not one i will be watching again.
M. Night, I will forever hold a place in my heart for you because you're the dude responsible for 'The Sixth Sense' and the brilliant, 'Unbreakable'... but shit man, the thrill is gone!
I dug 'Signs' up until the end, and any scene where you cast yourself (get over yourself, broseph). Then, trailers for 'The Village' started cycling and i was excited for one of your films all over again. The previews teases supernatural forces at work, monsters even... and man, what a cast! Definitely an "opening night" viewing for me.
Whoops.
The problem here, M. Night, is you're guilty of a little thing I like to call "shitting the bed". You had me sold on this story, these characters... the forces terrorizing the village. Bryce Dallas Howard was wonderful, as was William Hurt... everyone else was at the table as well. I would go as far to say your movie had me genuinely creeped out.
Then... you shit the bed.
You couldn't just leave the damn movie alone and make it about monsters in the woods. Apparently that's too easy and fucking cool. Instead, you had to live up to your gimmicky reputation and give us not ONE, but TWO FUCKING RIDICULOUS TWISTS! Both of which fall so flat I can still hear your movie hitting the fucking floor of the theater. If your intention was to deflate everything you spent an hour or so building up... you succeeded admirably.
My advice to you, ego-bag, is to drop the bullshit and see a movie through to the end without your contrived slaps in the face. If you sell one of your films as a monster movie, you better make a fucking monster movie. Don't take some self-indulgent cinematic high ground and condescend to your fans with a lame-dick explanation for supernatural happenings. I think it's cowardly and works against you.
You know what the crowd on opening night did when you thought you pulled the wool over?
