if there is actually a halfway decent revelation about the happening at the end of the movie then i might be impressed
i mean how do you get the population of a whole country to kill themselves for no apparent reason? you can put your money right NOW on aliens / weapons of mass mind control / some badass hallucinogenic drugs in the air that make everyone go crazy. and all those explanations are lame. "the crappening" |

oh, wait- wiki beat me to the punch:
"PLOT: The movie is a thriller that shows the results of the horrific release of a neurotoxin by plants. When this toxin is inhaled, the victim will attempt suicide by very violent means. The protagonist, a science teacher named Elliot Moore (Mark Wahlberg), runs for his life together with his estranged wife, Alma Moore (Zooey Deschanel), in order to survive while the world goes into a violent whirlwind of self destruction.[1]" |

It's over for this guy
He must be the first director in history who used to get his name above the title, and no longer does If there's something more hilarious than the guy lying down to let the megamower run him over, it's got to approach Maximum Overdrive levels of ridiculousness |

If this thing supports the entire story/characters on some fucking plot twist I'm gonna be pissed. Than again...at this point any M.Night movie without a twist would be a twist in itself .

YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR MOUTH ABOUT MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE, PAL! Once you know the whole plant thing, it kind of ruins it, but it would have been an ok twist had he done it like 2-4 years after 9/11. I think most people would be thinking, "ohh shit it must be terrorism or some kind of poison released to combat it that backfired" or something like that and then BAM, you find out it's nature herself, sick to death of our molestation of her body, murdering us one by one. This after lady in the water makes it feel almost as though this is his Machina. |

you're better off going into M.Night movies knowing absolutely nothing... Six Sense is 100x better if you don't know he sees dead people before you see the movie, but of course they hammered that fact home in all the promo/trailers. I mean... you don't really know what the deal is until the kid tells bruce willis.

Guys, there is no "twist" to this movie. People start dying, other people try to figure out why, the first answer they come up with is it's plants. This happens pretty early in the movie. The ads make it sound like it's a mystery that leads up to a big surprise ending, but it isn't. I'd guess by the end of the first act they've got it figured out. Shyalaman abandoned twist endings after "The Village."
