Wow! Fucking M. Night Shyamalan. Actually, the big twist aside, the rest of this film does not feel like a M. Night Shyamalan film. This right here is officially the best surprise of the year so far. I say big surprise because I'm not a fan of his stuff and I expected the worst. This ended up being super freaking awesome. Entertaining. Even the stupid "found footage" style didn't annoy me. Well, that's not true. It pissed me off a little so this isn't perfect. And the set up was cheesy but it kept me going and the characters were fucking awesome. Love the kids, especially the boy. Love the grandparents. I'm not going to reveal anything here. Revealing the twist on a Shyamalan movie should be considered illegal in 48 states. I wonder what would it be like watching it for the second time. This made it hard for me to not like. Up there with some of the good stuff I've seen. Somewhere between a 7 and a 8. Since this was a big surprise, we'll go with the higher number for now. If I have to name my top 6, of the year so far, this would be on there.
8 out of 10.
