i regretted not seeing shyamalan's movie lady in the water on the big screen. i've always enjoyed his other movies, and so far has not been disappointed in any one of them. the movie isnt linear in the strictest sense, and it's really rewarding for potential viewers to pay attention cuz this isnt a movie you can watch while eating (or doing laundry etc). what i like about shyamalan is his ability to present something, put it in such a way that is intelligent and more often that not, gives us a glimpse of originality when so many other movies are a concoction of the things that i have already seen (beware, i think it's a good sign you keep surprising yourself). and there are lots of nice shots, which is one of the things that i look out for, be it in the village, signs and unbreakable (to name a few).
he took his time to tell the story. and sometimes the camera is static, which i find particularly irritating in yasmin ahmad's movie.
it's christmas tomorrow. merry christmas.
