Signs
Signs This... was an okay movie, but I'm not a fan of Joaquin Phoenix in this movie. One can see he's an obvious favourite of Mr Shyamalan's, hence The Village, but I personally felt with this movie that the idea of him "turning away from the eyes of God" after his wife died in a car crash a little unrealistic. I mean, really. That's rare enough; but for a guy with all that misfortune to suddenly be invaded and anal probed by aliens? I mean, come on. Maybe you're meant to feel sorry for Mel Gibson, but in my opinion the emotion just wasn't there for Mel, and it was only the sanctity of the children I felt appealed to me; as you got the idea there was something tied to do with them that might catch up in the end, and it did - all of that damned water. Ah well, I'd give this maybe a 5.5/10.

I, Robot
I, Robot I personally thought this was a pretty good movie. It has a strong dialogue, and good acting from Smith; but it was a bit... cliché, I guess is the right word. Also, Sonny really annoyed me just because he seemed entirely gay, which is a connection I make with Gollum from Lord Of The Rings. I can appreciate Alan Tudyk acted fantastically for this film, but he was far too annoying to appeal to the entertaining side of my movie-going brain.
