DVD Reviews of Lady in the Water (Full Screen Edition)

DVD Review: thought provoking
Summary: 5 Stars

if you like to think, then this is the movie for you. m. knight always produces and writes movies that are very thought provoking. and if you dont pay attention you will definately miss something.

DVD Review: One of my favorites
Summary: 5 Stars

There are a lot of split reviews about this movie. Personally, I love it because I love fantasy stories and the subtlety of this movie is ingenious (as is Paul Giamati's performence). The thing is, you HAVE to be able to buy into the fairy tale in order to appreciate the movie. It is a fairy tale bedtime story; it is not meant to be accurate as though it could really happen. Some people have pointed out things about the fairy tale that could not have happened in real life. That would be like pointing out that rapunzel's hair would have been pulled out of her scalp if someone climbed it - you just need to go "okay, yeah then what happens?" If you can do this, then you will love this movie.

DVD Review: Hope From the Blue World
Summary: 4 Stars

Finally a M. Night Shyamalan movie that I really loved. His movies are always beyond normal reasoning, always full of fear and the unnatural. Lady in the Water was about love and deep inner understanding, and finding in ourselves, something that has long been forgotten in human nature. This was a movie of hope, and the forthcoming of leadership that will bring the world into hope. I truly enjoyed this movie which was full of characters and the longest in scene with the director playing a major part.

DVD Review: Another good movie by Shyamalan
Summary: 4 Stars

I've enjoyed most of Night Shyamalan's movies and this is no exception. The movie has feeling and hope which you don't get in many movies these days.

Paul Giamatti does an above average job, as he often does. Playing the role of someone just trying to get by and do the right thing, even under extreme diversity, seems to be his cup of tea.

DVD Review: Really?
Summary: 2 Stars

I really really tried to sit through this movie i just could not i like M shaymalans movies but this one was just a train reck. The acting was poor the script was poor i felt like i was sitting in silence for over half the movie brokenm up by broken soft spoken dialouge. I think the movie was a good story just poorly executed. i would say skip this if you can and go rent a good movie.

Description of Lady in the Water (Full Screen Edition)

Apartment building superintendent Cleveland Heep (Giamatti) rescues what he thinks is a young woman from the pool he maintains. When he discovers that she is actually a character from a bedtime story who is trying to make the journey back to her home he works with his tenants to protect his new friend from the creatures that are determined to keep her in our world.Running Time: 109 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?DRAMA UPC:?012569763760 Manufacturer No:?76376

Or, if you prefer, I See Wet People. M. Night Shyamalan's attempt at a newfangled mythology--about a depressed apartment superintendent (Paul Giamatti) who discovers a sea-nymph (Bryce Dallas Howard) who may hold the key to humanity's hopeful future--is intriguing enough to capture the imaginations of children and adults who haven't lost sight of their innocent sense of wonder. Cynics, on the other hand, will likely scoff at Shyamalan's awkward fantasy, which includes one victim--a film critic--widely interpreted as Shyamalan's revenge against reviewers who panned The Village. Shyamalan originally improvised this melancholy fantasy as a bedtime story for his children; unfortunately, it still feels mostly half-baked and ultimately ineffective due to a number of plot holes and inconsistencies that a writer as talented as Shyamalan should've been able to avoid. For those wishing to learn more about the film's troubled history, and Shyamalan's petulant split from Disney studios, The Man Who Heard Voices: Or, How M. Night Shyamalan Risked His Career on a Fairy Tale is an interesting read. --Jeff Shannon
