SIGNS from M Night Shyamalan

This movie review is about the 2002 movie, Signs from M. Night ShyamalanSigns comes from a fascinating perspective during a worldwide disaster, of a single family and how they deal with certain aspects of the event.

Despite the fact that probably millions of people have seen this movie already, I’m writing it from two angles, for “two kinds of people.”  The folks who have already seen the movie will say, ah, I get what that means. But I’ve also written this retrospective movie review with the person who has never seen it, in mind.  As hard as that is to fathom, I believe there are still some that haven’t seen it. So this is a SPOILER FREE opinion of my experience from watching Signs.

Signs comes from the mind of M. Night Shyamalan, who wrote, directed and produced the movie.  The cast includes Mel Gibson, Joaquin Phoenix, Rory Culkin, Abigail Breslin.  It also has Cherry Jones (“24″) and a cameo by Shyamalan himself.
