The Village
We both enjoyed
The Village. I cannot explain why so
many critics detested this film. Perhaps they allowed M. Night Shyamalan's previous films to affect their expectations. I didn't enjoy the film as much as his previous film, Signs, but I agree with
Peter Travers' review: "Let the film speak for itself. The Village, even when its step falters, is on to something more provocative than seeing dead people. Its power, unrelated to digital monsters, comes from the tension building inside the characters. Shyamalan benefits from a stellar cast, including William Hurt and Sigourney Weaver as emotionally bruised village elders, and Joaquin Phoenix and Oscar winner Adrien Brody -- doing a bizarro take on the village idiot -- as younger members of the tribe. And roll out a welcome for new star Bryce Dallas Howard, the daughter of director Ron Howard. She gives a breakout performance as a blind girl whose radiant innocence can't hide her independent spirit and scrappy wit."
