Hey everyone, thanks for checking out the video. This movie scared me more than any other movie that I can remember. Don't forget to subscribe to catch the next video. Have a great day • Scary Movies
The "twist" is right at the heart of the movie. That it appears to be about "signs," as in the visible, crop signs. Whereas the movie is actually about "signs," in the spiritual sense - namely that there are no coincidences, but what appear as such, are signs of the work of Providence. The key to the entire movie is the dialogue on the couch, in the middle of the movie - that "there are two kinds of people." Those who know that, no matter what happens, there is Someone who cares for them (even if they lose their life) - and those who live in despair, for whom any unfortunate event (or death) might mean the end of everything. The Gibson character at the dinner table was an example of the second category.
the aversion to water is why some people didnt like this movie, but I LOVED it. Everything (the signs) was right there under our noses in the beginning from The daughters water "quirk" to the sons Asthma, and Merrils failed Pro baseball career , and the Fathers wifes accident. Everything led to how they were going to defeat the aliens and get the father back on hi spiritual path. Such a great movie at Shymalans Height of his movie directions **spoiler alert** After Signs.. his movies went downhill. The "VILLIAGE" was after that then "The lady in the water" - which was .. meh Then the "Happening" - about the trees.. not a good movie then The last air bender - which I never saw I didnt watch anymore of his movies until a few years ago when I heard about the movie "SPLIT" and "Glass"(the sequel to Unbreakable) I urge you to watch "SPLIT" before "GLASS"
I really like the implications of the message of the movie when held up next to the discussion on the couch. At first glance, the viewer sees the opinion of the lights in two perspectives, the first of which is naïve when retrospectively thinking of events. The "we're not alone" point of view would be wrong about the aliens being a miracle (good thing). The skeptical stance, however useful societally it may be (with the lights) is ultimately right but misses the mark. But... what happens is that we fight for the people we love and it can save us from destruction. We are looking out for each other. And in that way, the first is actually more correct, Providence or no. We are here, and so even for the skeptical, we are not alone.
@@Mahlercougar "the aversion to water is why some people didn't like this movie" People who have that problem have utterly missed the point of the movie entirely.
I simply like how the film holds you in suspense the whole time without showing anything until the very end. And it's funny in a way like when you're nervous and giggle because of the pressure you feel.
This was my favorite of M. Night's films. I think the "twist" was the entire movie... The "signs" we're all of the things we take for granted and assume don't mean anything, but have a greater role and purpose. In the case of this film: Bo and her water, Graham's wife's final words, etc. Ultimately, it's a movie about a man finding his faith again... It just so happens that the backdrop is an alien invasion
I'm late because this is the first I'm seeing of your channel, but i absolutely love watching reactions to this movie. It's my favorite movie of all time, and there is so much little detail and callbacks in the movie. I think this is Shyamalans best work, even though some of his other works are great too. Little details like when the dog gets sick, he says he'll call the doctor and the kid replies "he doesn't treat animals" its because Ray was the vet, but the only thing in the entire movie that mentions him being the vet is the few second shot of his mailbox when graham goes to visit him. great movie, loved your reaction.
Nice reaction. I think “signs” refers to the crop circles, and to Graham’s dying wife telling him what to look for, and that moment with the alien in the house confirming the signs his wife gave him, Bo leaving full glasses of water everywhere, Morgan having asthma so his lungs would be closed, and Merrill being a beast with a baseball bat. After getting busted at the Army recruiter’s office for holding the strike-out record, he said, “It just felt wrong not to swing.” Like every idiosyncrasy and quirk among them was MEANT to be, in preparation for that one moment. Signs. Plus Graham realized all of this, and his faith returned. Excellent movie.👍
I really liked this movie. M. Night Shyamalan has made some good movies. I also liked the Village and Split. I definitely believe in signs and miracles. The jump scares were great. I loved some of the silliness with the kids too. 😀
Loved this reaction video! I’m surprised more reaction channels haven’t jumped on this movie, because it’s got everything. Definitely a movie that deserves more attention.
It was (for me) the first time I heard the whole cinema scream multiple times :D I still get the chills down my spine even when I only think about the backyard footage from Brazil!!! 23:23 :O
Glade to see more reaction from this film. A favorite of mine. This movie style reminds me alot of the series SMALLVILLE. Scary cornfields, Midwestern farm houses, sheriffs, flannel and strange Alien activities. And lot of logic and faith. Its like there trying to hint us on somthing to come. Creepy i know.. Another M knight film i recommend is "Devil" (2010).
I can totally see an episode of Smallville where the theme is alien invasion set at the kent farm! Clark Jonathan, and martha stuck in the house while aliens try to get in. But to the aliens surprise clark just vaporizes them with his heat vision, or Jonathan calls the fire department and they hose down the aliens lol.
Awesome reactions brother!! Fun fact for ya, you know the guy that played Ray Reddy, the guy they saw while eating pizza and then at his house where he trapped the alien in his pantry, that is M. Night himself, the director, who I see as a legend myself..
Really enjoyed your reaction. Your response to the jump scares was great! By the way, M. Night usually does a cameo in his movies. He was Ray here, the doctor at the hospital in The Sixth Sense, and he appears in others also. Subscribed.
When you have kids you'll walk in on all kinds of weird crap lol, the other day I passed my sons room and he was stuffing an entire comforter in his sweatpants he looked like weird al in the fat video.
This is such a great movie and yea definitely one that people don’t react to enough. I love the dual meaning of the title as well, and the revelation they all got toward the end was incredible. Awesome reaction, it was great you were so invested in the story!
I enjoy this movie now, but of course my parents took me like the first week or two it was in theaters as an 8 year old that hated jumpscares and got creeped out easily. The birthday party scene and the TV reflection jumpscare definitely had people gasping, including my mom who is an expert at overreactions during scary movies. I'm pretty sure I had a dream that night where I "woke up" in the dream to see a shadowy figure standing at the end of my bed.
There's actually a video that explains all the clues M. Night Shyamalan included in the movie. It explains that it was actually about demons, not aliens. It's been years since I saw it but I'm pretty sure it was here on youtube. Maybe someone else in the comments knows or you could try searching the meaning of the movie.
Its aliens The demon thing is disproven, Shamylan clearly calls them aliens in the behind the scenes and the script And an old work print clip showed an alternative radio broadcast describing the battle and the ships Plus a deleted scene shoss a bird after it crashed into the invisible ship
The consensus when Unbreakable came out (his second movie) was one of general disappointment, and it wasn’t immediately accepted by most. They wanted “Sixth Sense 2,” instead of a comic-book movie with no giant earth-shattering “twist,” like in Sixth Sense. People have come around, though, and recognize it for what is always was, which is a great movie.
I loved this movie. You actually said something interesting. I never really made the connection between Bo having dreams because the wife did. That’s an interesting take.
You should definitely check out The Village, it's my favorite one from Shyamalan.. Great reactions btw, also if you never saw Harry Potter series it's a great channel booster.
The scariest parts of the whole movie for me was a) the bit with meryl in the cupboard watching the footage from the kids party and we see the alien for the first time, and b) the part where the alien hand grabs the little boy in the cellar
I've seen this movie too many times to count, and I still jumped when you jumped. The neighbor Ray is actually being played by M. Night Shyamalan, his movies are thinkers. I don't like scary movies that have nothing but blood and gore, this is one of the best scariest movies made (makes one scream, jump, & close your eyes). Loved your reactions throughout.
One of my favorite movies! A piece of trivia about the movie is that it was filmed in 2001. In fact, the first day of filming was supposed to be 9/11. Production was postponed for a few days, and the first scene that was originally slated? Graham saying goodbye to his wife. They did the scene and it was a heavy, very heartbreaking day, since they were essentially replicating what happened for hundreds of people just a few days prior. It added a sense of realism
I've seen it, not when it first came out but a years after. Also watched split not knowing it was connected, then was blown away for Glass. Wish I hadn't seen them so I could for this channel. Such a good trilogy. And such good movies on their own!
His wife died, THEN a higher power spoke through his wife. You can tell when her tone of voice changed " tell Graeme to see, and tell Merril to swing away".
Also M Night is the guy in the movie who killed Mel Gibsons wife, apparently he has a cameo in all his movies including the sixth sense I only recently worked that out
The TV show wayward pines is a fantastic but creepy programme that messes with your mind. The first season is a cross between stranger things and the truman show. It didn't do very well and it had mixed reviews but the cast was insane, Toby Jones who I love is in it. Its worth a watch on your own if not on here
The alien invasion is just the canvas on which the story is painted. It's about loss, grief, family, recovery and providence, and how those things work together. Basically Romans 8:28 playing out in real time.
I live in a small town in Quebec. Where everyone's backyard is a forest or a cornfield. I remember watching this movie in highschool for Halloween. It was terrifying. I was 13 and walked in the movie room without knowing that alien/demonic space beings/abduction would become my biggest fear. I actually saw a UFO in Montreal back in October 2020. 17 years day for day from when i saw the movie. I was at Sauvé Metro station waiting for the bus, looking over the jewish cemetery. Planes usually fly low around there and i know exactly how planes sound and look. There was this weird Flame, the size of a small house. Burning in the sky. I was unable to speak or breath for a moment. Overwhelmed by something i knew wasn't normal. The fire was going up and down but always going in a straight line. I told the strangers next to me in the bus line. One of them first impression was : Is that a missile?! Then the Ufo disappeared from field of vision before more people could notice it. I hated myself for not recording it. I know it wasn't a plane. It was acting like a drone burning while flying but it didn't seem affected by the fire it emitted. Very trippy stuff.

@@codyschale263 not triggered. Just disgusted. He has so much talent and opportunity to be better. While I’ll admit he’s probably not a legit “nazi”, he’s gotten much worse over the years.
This movie is stupid, ridiculous, and cannot be taken seriously. If you're a species that is highly allergic to water, WHY WOULD YOU INVADE A PLANET THAT IS 70% WATER? If extra-terrestrials (not necessarily these aliens) exist and came to our solar system looking for raw materials, they would take one look at Earth and say: "Not worth it! We'll mine the rest of the system first." Fun Fact: The film was shot on the property of an agricultural school, Delaware Valley College, where two areas of corn were already growing at different stages. The corn grown for the film was naturally further behind the other two areas of corn, so it was not a planned element. Bonus Fact: The "Brazilian Video" was shot in Miami, but the children were all Brazilians. A Portuguese couple played the parents in this scene, but M. Night Shyamalan decided not to use them because he noticed that their accent was different. Brazilian Portuguese and Portuguese from Portugal are two different languages.
imho the only good parts are the jump scares. the rest of the movie is meh at best and stupid at worst. and this is one of m. night's "good" movies lol.
*If extra-terrestrials (not necessarily these aliens) exist and came to our solar system looking for raw materials, they would take one look at Earth and say: "Not worth it! We'll mine the rest of the system first."* That's just what they WANT you to think!
These aliens are the most pathetic ones of all the movies that take themselves seriously. Aliens hating water, invading a planet full of water, where water falls from the skies daily, where clouds of water or fog is almost omnipresent, and its inhabited by beings that are more that 60% water (like people). Thats similar kind of stupidity like if humans invaded a xenomorph homeworld naked. And yeah, they got absolutely owned. I dont think such aliens would ever come back...
