Have you seen The Village? If you have, then you know what's wrong

[Not_Giving_Up]

with this....

http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hv&cf=info&id=1808488393

I'm looking for somewhere to tell these idiots off.

[merwin]

1. I thought it was a good movie.

[Not_Giving_Up]

3. Yeah, I like it, I OWN it

Click the link and they tell you

Set in rural Pennsylvania in 1897, this is the story of the small village of Covington (population 60) surrounded by a woods inhabited by a race of "mythical creatures," and the romance that blossoms between Kitty (Greer), the daughter of the town's leader (Hurt), and Lucius (Phoenix), a young man who questions the policy of keeping Covington's citizens completely confined to the village.

I didn't want to spoil it for anybody who hasn't seen it, but they have really screwed up here. It's not set in 1897...If you've seen the whole movie, you know this. Also, the girl's name is IVY. There is a Kitty in the movie, but she's not the one with the thing for Lucius.

2. uhhhhhhh....

:wtf: What romance between Kitty and Lucius?

[Not_Giving_Up]

4. Yeah, and I guess they had JEEPS in 1897 too

I can't find a link to bitch.

[Not_Giving_Up]

5. Oh yeah, not to mention

That fly overs were not permitted.

[ET Awful]

7. Well, Kitty WANTED a relationship early on in the movie,

Lucius snubbed her if you'll recall.

[Not_Giving_Up]

8. Yes, but they describe it as

"the romance that blossoms" between them.

I don't think the person that wrote this really watched the movie.

14. good for them...wish *I* hadn't watched it myself

Not only was it stupefyingly boring, but I used to think William Hurt was a good actor and I was horrified to see that he wasn't. It makes me wonder what other actors from years ago were really awful and I just didn't have the taste to notice at the time.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.

6. Sorry, it was eminently predictable and boring as hell....

I haven't seen a frightening "horror" film in years. The dreck that has passed for the genre in the last decade or so is pathetic. Jeepers-Creepers? Come on, what a joke. The Ring? Oooooh. I'm scairt!

I rented The Village because I REALLY wanted to see a new horror movie and I WAS horrified....at just how lousy it was. Suffice it to say, the love story was the best part.

[Not_Giving_Up]

9. Regardless of your opinion of the movie

This so-called review is just WRONG. That's my point here. I liked the movie, my husband called it "lame". I still think Sixth Sense was the best from Shymalan so far.

[ET Awful]

13. I didn't much care for the movie, but I DO like the concept behind it

If done properly, it could have made quite an intriguing story. But the acting (especially from the "elders") was just so blah and wooden, and the script was just bad.

I do like the whole idea as a story, but I don't like the way he did it.

[Taverner]

17. The Village wasnt a horror movie

It was simply a drama - personally I think the whole thing was mis-marketed.

They should have just released it, no teasers no promos

[MidwestMomma]

19. That's exactly what my sister said

I haven't seen it but she said it wasn't too bad for a drama but was in no way a thriller.

[Not_Giving_Up]

10. I feel better now! I found the place to complain

I pointed out the stupid errors made by the reviewer, and suggested that movie reviewers should actually SEE the movie that they are writing about. I also suggested that Yahoo have someone check these things before they post them.

11. I hated that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:dem::beer::yourock:

[Not_Giving_Up]

12. What did you hate? The review, or the movie??

Please be more specific!

[HeatherG.]

15. I Liked It

I caught the error in the review. I think the critic must have something against Shamalan to bash his movie so badly when he obviously hadn't even watched the whole thing. A reviewer compared Shamalan to Michael Jackson too. Huh? I don't get that analogy.

[Taverner]

16. I liked it

But I think I know what you are saying, but they couldn't really put that it as it would spoil the surprise

[auntAgonist]

18. That review sucks .. here's a better one.

http://www.futuremovies.co.uk/review.asp?ID=228


I really enjoyed the movie. I also own it.

[DrWeird]

20. Umm, it's not a review.

It's a plot synopsis.

[Smallberries]

21. The problem was...

...I spent so much effort trying to figure out the "M. Night Shyamalan Twist™" that I ended up hating the reveal when it came.
