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 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.
