The Village has a twist at the end that is just out of this world and literally is, but that does not make this movie a bad one, it makes it a dark drama about what is it like to live in harmony, and I surprisingly enjoyed it.

This movie is not ment to be a horror/thriller movie. It creates its own genre. The story has great detail and a great plot. It also scares you with your own fears. A great movie, see it.

An atmospheric masterpiece with a story that doesn't quite lead up to it's build up however after a second viewing many will see the key metaphor behind the village which is what the movie is all about.

This had the premise of a great movie if M. Night Shyamalan didn't screw up the ending. The film leaves a bad taste in your mouth. This is when Shymalan's writing and directing begins to slip.

The plot was good enough, but the script was horrible and the acting was mediocre. At times the script gave me a headache! It was a pathetic attempt to make the actors speak as if they were in the 19th century.

I only saw this once, in the cinema, and I thuoght it was really spooky. I went to see it with my friends and I thought the scary thing was a hedgehog. Oh, and one of my friends won't have anything to do with red. I think she was joking.

THE VILLAGE IS a seemingly innocent and innocuous story that turns on a dime, presenting the terror, wit and twist ending that made Shyamalan's THE SIXTH SENSE so brilliantly original.

The Village began Shyamalan's fall as a director. The Village tries so hard to be something more than what it already is but its sloppily directed and has more "why" then scares.

Really enjoyed it but you just know this is the type of film that most critics will hate. Oh well their loss.

I was saddend when i saw how bad the reviews were of this movie. i loved how it played out, it shocked me. i was glad it didn't turn into a monster-slasher movie. it deserved better rattings.

Good actors and well-filmed, but a truly goofy plot makes for a predictable and boring time-waster by the Shyster. Bergman he ain't.

Unbearbly lame, unwatchable tripe; one of the worst "films" I have ever seen.

Yes, believe the reviews. It's a stinker. The reason I'm even bothering to vote is 'cause I noticed James Beraldinelli's review. From what i can remember, this is the only movie he liked that I absolutely hated. Interesting.

Just horrible. It thinks it's clever but it's just lazy in coming up with a tricky ending.

An absolutely anticlimactic disappointment. Even with strong leading roles and a great score, it falls so many times and leaves you with a depressing sense of cinematic displeasure.

This undeniably talented writer-director M Night Shyamalan has been repeating himself with steadily decreasing movies and his latest does nothing to buck the trend. Add on top of that the ending was extremely disappointing.

I thought he movie had a lot going for itself even after the twist was revealed. However, it kept at a boring pace and didn't deliver much excitement and scary moments.

Not as good as Shyamalan's first three films, but still a very strong film. Many people don't like the twists in this film, but in my opinion they work.

It had a good idea, but the way the script was written didn't make it a good movie, let alone the acting was pretty trashy. It is, however, one of my favorite Shyamalan movies. Just try not to compare it to his earlier movies.

A confusing and if you can believe it boring addition to the once acclaimed directors filmography, The Village is overall eerie and suspenseful, once you get past it's disappointing atmosphere and rather dull characters.

Ruined By It’s Ending
If it weren’t for the ending twist, I would’ve given this an 8.
