Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

As my headliner says, this movie was oddly enough, pretty good. You couldn't go to a movie store or blockbuster in the early 2000's and not see at least an advertisement for this movie. It was really big. That being said, I was actually pretty impressed when I finally sat down and watched it with my boyfriend. My main issue is that the aliens themselves seem to be the secondary issue that is somewhat overlooked, while the actual hysteria caused by their presence seems to cause more issues than anything else. We're watching the movie and everything is going along good, but near the end, we suddenly hear on the radio that the aliens are leaving earth. You never see any ships, and you only get quick glimpses at the aliens themselves. I feel like this was a pretty decent movie, but there is so much more that could have been done with it.

This movie is incredibly underrated. It deserves at least a 7.5 - 8 on IMDB. Seeing this movie in theaters when it first released was incredible. The build up of tension throughout the entire film kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time.

A family living on a farm finds mysterious crop circles in their fields which suggests something more frightening to come. Signs is a film that is slow and it takes some time to get where it wants to be and the lack of action for some it might hurt the movie in the eyes of certain viewers. The perfomances from the main cast are terrific especially Mel Gibson and Abigail Breslin and some scenes like the one where Phoenix's character is watching one of the aliens on the TV were super creepy. Signs wanted to make a difference and built suspense instead of action and despite some pacing issues it did that. (8/10)

Signs by M. Night Shyamalan is one of his mystery movies. This film starts out with a crop circle shown on the main character's field. Later, we also see that these crop circles were created all around America. Then, slowly but surely, there were signs of some sort of intelligent life from outer space that comes to earth. Finally, when there was obvious proof that aliens came, there were people that evacuate to different places to be safe. However, our main character decides to stay in their home and wish for the best.This film is a mystery/thriller that allows the audience to think. The story line is not a straight forward story that the audience can understand without thinking. There are also constant actions that catches the attention of the viewer. This helps the audience to always be cautious and keeps them on their toes. There are also very meaningful messages and themes that is shown in this film. This is not an obvious thing that shows but there are plenty of hints that we can see.This is overall a very well-made film. With questions, such as "does coincidence occurs or not" in an alien film, it makes it a unique film. With a strong sense of family togetherness, this is an excellent film to watch with your family.
