    Default Signs

    This is a film stars Mel Gibson as an ex-priest living on a farm with his children and brother. Crop-circles start appearing in his fields and eventually lots of strange things start happening.

    I'd been waiting to see this movie ever since I first heard about it since I really enjoyed the directors others (Sixth Sense and Unbreakable). Its pretty hard to do a proper review without giving too much away, but I enjoyed this movie much more than I expected.

    I'm not usually a big fan of Mel Gibson but thought he was very good in this. Theres not that many characters in it but those that there are are played very well.

    After watching the trailers, the movie was not what they suggested, I'd say its better.

    I don't want to give anything away since its definately better to see this film without knowing anything about it.

    Overall 9/10. Highly reccommended

    one to watch! again, don't want to give anything away, but like I just told my brother, avoid reading the press reviews and watching the trailers too many times, just view the movie........

    Bug.

    P.S. Am I giving too much away by saying this scared the crap out of me..........if so mods, please edit.

    This movie wouldn't have been so bad if it actually went somewhere. It was like a porno with no money shot. One of those slow motion soft-core Showtime specials that start out as being mediocre detective melodrama, but you keep watching any way because it's starring Shannon Tweed and you know there's going to be a shower scene but you know it's going to suck because some dude inevitably comes in and starts man handling her and the camera man does nothing but zoom up on his ass. That's exactly what "Signs" is like: the camera man zooming up on some guy's ass for two hours.

    Don't see "Signs."

    ***************SPOILER***********

    You mean to tell me that aliens came down to earth to invade us and didnt realise that 2/3 of the planet was covered in the stuff that kills them - water?????

    for fecks sake.......i nearly cried cos i paid 5.20 for the ticket.
