Night Shyamalan "you must every word off the page verbatim!" wooden performance that has plagued everything from Signs onward.

A sharp contrast to his earlier films, when advertising his name was more important than Bruce Willis' or Mel Gibson's.<br /><br /><br />Also, interesting how subdued a performance Will Smith is giving seemingly throughout the entire film. Very calm. Different than the gung-ho, in-your-face machismo we usually get.Bigzillanoreply@blogger.com
