      I remember everyone saying the movie sucked shortly after it came out. I always liked it and in recent times, I've only heard few people say they didn't like, so I can't help but to think it was just a bandwagon at the time to hate on this movie. Like people went "oh, that was a good movie!", then they read that some critic said "this movie is like an amateur fest of film-making and yack yack yack" and those same people switched to "psh, Signs?

    What most people seem to skim over is his wife's death. Deep down I thought "why not dreams, or visions instead of killing his wife" then it dawned on me. The hardest, most difficult things to forget are memories locked in by trauma. Things like the loss of a loved one, immense stress, and risk to your health and/or sanity, all stick with us no matter how hard we try to forget. To get him to remember the message no matter what, he needed a traumatic event to make sure it wouldn't fade. Nothing lasts longer than the loss of those you hold dear.

It's just so eerie and creepy with this realistic portrayal of how people would be in denial, which makes the viewer more nervous. After this movie came out my sister went out with her friend for halloween as the kids from signs and they wore tin foil hats LOL.

    I think Gibson's character is going through a lot more than the loss of his wife. His wife died in a seemingly senseless and horrifying way. The way she died caused his loss of faith. If she had died of cancer would he have reacted the same way? I don't think so. The grief would still be immense but he wouldn't have had to experience things like seeing the person who killed her as he's walking around town. That's why this movie's twist, that none of it was senseless, works for me. I can completely understand why he felt the way he did so that payoff was satisfying. Merrill didn't act that way because Merrill only knows the loss, his sister in law was killed in a car accident. He sees her death as a part of life. I think that's why the kids relate to Merrill so well. Their dad's anger is a barrier to them. I don't think Merrill's "I don't want to see that look in your eyes again" speech is what caused him to regain his faith or leadership. I think it was the moment when he recalled the conversation he had with his wife and he realized how all the pieces fit together. I think when they came out of the cellar it was about doing what they could to help the son, nothing more than that. Faith or no faith, he still needed to help his son.

    Awhile back I saw some behind the scenes stuff about the movie...the thing that stood out the most to me was that apparently the dinner table scene was filmed only a couple days after the 9/11 tragedy. So the atmosphere was already so emotionally charged before filming started and it comes across in everyone's performance. Even though the kids were young at the time I'm sure that to some degree even they understood that something was off and bad things had happened. Its a powerful scene to begin with and that backdrop makes it even more powerful.

    I love this movie so much. Partly because you can interpret the creatures in your own way. For example, what if they were in fact demons? Let me explain... This whole movie was based on the signs life shows you, or your destiny. It revolved around Mel Gibson's faith so much. They claim the creatures don't like water but you never see it happen until it's at their house, when they use the water the Father would bring Bo (his little angel) could be that with him being a clergyman that the water he brings her was holy water he blessed for her unintentionally. Just a wild possible interpretation I've heard that i thought was interesting.

      Except many spiritual rituals involve yeeting holy/blessed water.
      Which explains how they repelled them.
      Middle East has Jews and Muslims.
      So that's not any indication for them to be demons.
      Still looks like hydrophobic aliens to me.

    GREAT reactions, guys!
    I'm so, so glad you picked up that the movie ISN'T Mel Gibson vs Aliens. It's the story of Graham's (Mel Gibson's character) journey back to his faith. I would probably put this movie in a Suspense / Thriller category more than Science Fiction. Too many people see "aliens" and immediately jump to Science Fiction. When really, the aliens are more of a backdrop to the actual story. The same with, "The Abyss" (1989). Which is a movie you two should also react to. People see "aliens underwater" and immediately jump to Science Fiction. I would also place it in the Suspense / Thriller category. While "The Sixth Sense" most definitely has Supernatural undertones, I wouldn't put that in the Horror category either. I think it's more in the Suspense / Thriller category as well.

    This and Shudder Island are 2 of my favorite "horror"/thriller films. It's all about what you don't see, or the mysteries tugging you along, that make them have the right amount of tension. And I love how personal the story is, how it at it's heart is just about a family dealing with the loss of a mother/wife and faith (and I say that last part as someone who is not religious at all. I totally respect it).

    A little trivia, the veterinarian who killed the wife (Ray Reddy) was played by M Knight Shyamalan himself. As for the genre of films, I believe they are known as "Atmospheric Thrillers" and these types of movies are usually thought of as "Spooky" and not "Horror". I think you would really enjoy another M Knight Shyamalan movie call "The Village". It's another atmospheric thriller with a huge twist at the end. It also stars Joaquin Phenix, Sigourney Weaver and William Hurt. And M Knight Shyamalan also makes an appearance in "The Village".

      SPOILERS FOR WAR OF THE WORLDS
      I think one of the best and most unsettling thing about War of the Worlds is the fact that we were 100% defenseless. Human were useless in their attempts to fight back. There was no chance we were defeating them. What took them down was something we had nothing to do with which was disease. They just didn't have immune systems used to our planet's wide variety of germs. That's it. The lack of control humans had in that threat was very well done.

      It can be a good movie overall but yeah, the water twist is bad. I think basically if you watch this as a family/faith drama/thriller it's fantastic but if you try to think of this film as a sci fi/horror film, then no, not great because the water thing makes absolutely no sense. With how highly acidic it was shown to be to them, they shouldn't have been able to even breath in our atmosphere, so I get the criticism, I just don't think it's that important to the main goal of the film, which to me, seemed like a film about family and faith in the face of fear. Personally, I'm an atheist but I still really really enjoy the film

      Merrill: “I see.”

      Humans didn’t beat the Aliens back, force them off the Earth. They just left. Even leaving behind some who were wounded (the one in the climactic scene with the Hess family). They just figured out trying to take over the planet was more trouble than it was worth.

      @@milescoburn1845 Okay, no need to quote the scene or imply that I wasn't paying attention, I've seen the film many times, thanks. But maybe you weren't paying attention, recon team clears for "the rest of them". It was a mass invasion, there were literally thousands of ships that arrived right before the big night of attack. The few that arrived first and created the signs in the crops for navigation were the recon team but the night they attacked was a large scale, world wide co-ordinated invasion that the radio reported they were "harvesting" us. It was an invasion, otherwise they wouldn't have brought down literally thousands of ships to Earth and it wouldn't have been world wide and everyone attacked in the same night and celebrating on the news as they left. And yes, they were fought off, or it's implied they were fought off, as the focus stays so tightly on the main family, we can't know for sure but the characters talk about people having found a way to beat them right before the family figures out how to beat them. Even Ray had a gut feeling about the water, it wasn't going to be hard for people to figure out.
      Also, NONE of that at all changes that they shouldn't have been able to breath in our atmosphere and even we, with current tech, can tell when a decently far away planet is likely to have water so they certainly should have been able to.

    I feel like most people have missed the fact that Graham losing his faith has completely altered his family dynamics. So in addition to the loss of their mother, the children have lost the father that comforted them with his, and their, faith. To the point they ask him for prayer. They are drawn to their uncle who, although he doesn't express it well, still has his faith. We know this because he asks Graham to return to the man he used to be and comfort him.
    Colleen tells Graham that the accident was meant to be, but he doesn't understand that was a message.

      I like the score for this and The Village a lot. The village gets a lot of hate but I still like it. I think the problem is the marketing made it seem like more of a horror movie while it's really more about suspense and atmosphere, I mean the same could be said for the Sixth Sense and Signs but I think they feel a little closer to horror compared to The village. Some just didn't like the twist I guess but I thought it was good. Reminded me almost like something out of the original twilight zone tv show. M. Night is a big fan of Hitchcock and I really love Hitchcock films too so maybe that's why I like his earlier films like this. He even adopted the making a cameo in is own movie like Hitchcock well except Hitchcock would mostly only show up briefly on screen, blink and you'd miss him type appearances sometimes as he didn't want to distract viewers too much as it can take you out of the story sometimes. Something I don't think M. Night learned, well maybe now he has. Don't get me wrong I like a lot of M. Night movies but I think he started getting a bit of an ego as time went on to were his part in The Lady in the Water was a writer who turn's out to be basically be a prophet, not gonna lie I fought the urge to roll my eyes on that one. Still the Lady in the Water wasn't bad per say and it has some great music as well. The Happening is where he lost me, that movie is funny but in a bad way. Seriously if you've ever seen Chris Stuckmann's Hilariocity review it's great, do yourself a favor and watch his Sign's review first because that movie made him want to be a director and he actually loves most M. Night movies.

    This is one of my fav movies ever. Few movies have scared me as much. I saw it first when I was 10 tho so that might be it. But I find it fantastically creepy.
