Almost as ridiculous as the movie "Signs"

hmm we can expect that as a new movie staring tom cruise in 2 years

I liked Signs and was able to look past the gaping plot holes for one reason: the plot of the movie turned out to be "everything happens for a reason" rather than a typical humans vs. aliens movie. That threw me for a loop, so I therefore enjoyed it.

Oh, I enjoyed Signs too for that same reason, plus you have to admit it was pretty freaky at times. But the fact that aliens could be destroyed by something as elemental as water was just a poorly planned plot-device that will be always known as the movie's major weakness.

The plot was so unbelievable that it ruined the message though. I now don't think anything happens for a reason because I also don't believe aliens who are allergic to water would even consider attacking earth. The message is only as good as the vehicle it's carried in.

That's funny, I didn't enjoy it because I wanted a typical humans vs. aliens movie and not some rubbish about a priest who lost his faith.

Signs was a great movie! :|

I watched Signs for the first time last night. I hadn't heard anything about the plot before. The water bit made me cringe the instant I saw it. Couldn't they invent something, anything, that wasn't water? The whole water thing is at least 100 years old (Wizard of Oz) and probably older than that. Maybe since I had the subtitles on (and they appeared a few seconds before the action appeared), there was almost no suspense either.

The little girl was the only real redeeming part of the movie.

I won't accept it. Keep your morbidly stunted movie tatses to your self.

There's a Dracula thread?!?! Funny I was just reading about vampires, because I suspected the water as a destroyer of evil thing is older than Oz, and it is!

Signs sucked.
M Night Shamadamadingdong is a horrible director. His best movie was Unbreakable, but it was really mediocre.
Signs requires almost as much suspension of disbelief as The Core. Too many plot holes to be taken seriously, not campy or funny enough to be taken as a joke.
Anyhow, this movie is not SciFi. This movie is just fiction with NO science.
Honestly, It was worse than "made for TV" movies made by the SciFi channel.
