i didn't really get it and it was kind of weird because people were killing themselves like pretty much through the whole movie
The movie was .. okay --- it's got a good side and a stupid side::: GOOD: The story line .. i think the fact that a chemical going through the air and infecting people is a fine story as long as it i... s transfered into the movie well, which is was in this movie. BAD: the characters/acting ... Acting was terrible! If someone had to play ***************** not have been COOL GUY Mark Wahlberg because in this movie Elliot was basically a Fa@@ot in the movie, a chicken, a scardy cat!! And not only him,, all of the other acting was bad!! OVERALL RATING: Okay.. 68/100 ... 4/10 ... Full Review
Very good movie. It has you wondering what will happen next. Enjoyed the ending very much..
This movie should not be on this list. I saw it at the movies then rented it and will probably purchase it. This is a good movie with a different twist.
M. Night Shyamalan's films are very brilliant of twist ending and stuff. This one was not the best one but..entertaining. The film is about a chemical that spread in the air and people start to kill e... ach other. Pretty entertaining to watch. I loved it and music was masterpiece. This movie was very entertaining and good. Critic Rating: 71/100. -Peace Full Review
