THE HAPPENING - M.NIGHT SHYAMALAN

I'm back with my blog. Nope, my silly keyboard couldn't stop me.
I saw THE HAPPENING, today- June 15Th 2008. I wont say this was a bad movie. It scores many points but gets as much as negative points too. Be sure to get scared when you see the movie. M. Night will give you the creeps. Thats for sure.

The bad part was the "BOOM OPERATOR" or "CINEMATOGRAPHER" or "EDITOR." I'm not sure whom to blame along with M. NIGHT.
You'll be able to see "microphone" often. The microphone is to record the voice of the actors and the person who holds it is called the BOOM OPERATOR. Now this was bad. Super-bad! Our Indian people like to act smart all the time. So these parts of the film where the microphone was noticeable gave them the chance to laugh and shout smart stuff! My problem wasn't even the microphone (not really), but the disturbance from the SMART-DISTURBED CROWD.
Also, the microphone took out the seriousness and stole the spotlight when the actors were at the peak of their brilliant performance.

I am still wondering why did they have to show the microphone so damn much. Of course, I am not proud of this movie. But on the long shot, I'd give it a 99/100. If it wasn't for the "microphone-invasion", it would be a full 100.

Just like, how you tried to freak out yer friends after seeing THE SIXTH SENSE by saying, "I CAN SEE DEAD PEOPLE." I'm not sure this movie is gonna have that much of an effect, but yeah. Some of you will start WALKING BACKWARDS or TALK SILLY (not like you don't do that already) or ACT LIKE A MORON. But you sure wont forget "the invasion of the boom operator."

Be prepared to get scared, wonder about the whole concept and to listen to the smart shouting of people who come to see the movie (because of the mic).

Someone has to right to M. Night. And must let him know about this personally. (again, not that no one would've already asked, but I don't want some lame microphone to be stopping him from becoming the next big film-maker)

Leave that. This movie was touching. Scary. And it will make us remember, that we are part of this planet. The planet and nature are not part of us!
