  "For all his complaints recently about being misunderstood, it seems it's Shyamalan who simply doesn't get us."

  "This would all seem like a deliberate, self-parodying joke if it weren't coming from a filmmaker with no sense of humor whatsoever."

  "As for The Happening, his throwback horror flick that plays like The Birds meets The Blob, it's beyond good and evil. It's dumbfounding."

  "Shyamalan's still trying to take the story seriously—this is, horror of horrors, a message film—but his atypically unmeasured direction is all shock and no awe."
