I was just wondering if anyone has seen "Signs" yet? It is such a great movie! If you haven't seen you should definitely go. But for those who have seen it, what did you think?

Hey, SillyLily....
I have not seen "Signs", but my daughter shared the "trailer" with me months ago and it looked very interesting!
I'll let you know when I've seen it, because that's a FOR SURE!

I went to see Signs yesterday and I loved it! It has a lot of suspense.

I think it is amazing considering the original feel of the plot. I was telling my friends that the movie looked completely corny 20 minutes into it, but 10 minutes later I couldn't get enough of the film.

My friends and I decided to call it a Spiritual Thriller because of the way we sat in our seats thinking for 20 minutes after the movie was over.

There was also a very well put together mix of horror and comedy, so that very serious points could be made and then you would find something to laugh at.

Mel Gibson did an astounding job. Go see it!

I loved everything about the movie except the last 5 minutes. It's like they had a great movie going and felt they had to tie everything together in a nice pretty bow in the last couple of minutes. The foreshadowing isn't really foreshadowing. It's not subtle at all. It's kinda hammered over your head. I still think the movie was fabulous, but it coulda been a bit more concievable.

I enjoyed it vastly--it was a real hoot. I'm going to get up a crowd of friends and go see it again. It reminded me of The Birds and War of the Worlds all rolled into one.I loved the ending--but I like everything all tied-up at the end

Hey there! I have seen the movie twice it was so good. It was
more psycologically thrilling than anything else. It made me really
think. I know if something like what happened in the movie happened
to me and my family, I would be hiding in my basement wrapped up
in a blanket screaming my head off! The movie did creep me out.
And that alien was UGLY!!

Yes, I saw it and enjoyed it immensely. However, it is a movie I can never watch again. After seeing it once, and knowing what's going to happen, it has been ruined. But I really loved it; Joaquin did an outstanding job.

Hey, makoto! How you doing?

I just Signs (for the second time) this past week-end. The moviehouse in our little hometown seats 300, and it was full. That was the biggest crowd I've ever seen up there, except for the premiere of LOTR last December.

I think you'll have a great time. I really enjoyed the dialogue.
