INDY REVIEWS
Score: 7.2 / 10 
The Village
I love a good M. Night Shyamalan movie. In theory, anyway. The Sixth Sense? With the kid who could see that Bruce Willis was indestructible? Loved it. Unbreakable, wherein our man Bruce dies in a train accident but doesn't know it? Funny as all get out. But The Village? Egh. Now, I don't want to ruin M. Night's big twist for anybody, so I won't go into too much detail, but here's a clue: the village elders have left behind a horrific and shameful past that nobody is willing to ever revisit, there's a shed containing outlandish costumes that frighten children and curdle breast milk and, finally, and most damningly, Adrien Brody shows an alarming tendency to spell out acronyms with his hands. Is it any wonder, then, that the screenplay continually refers to them as... the village people?
Begone,
-- Back to all movies
