the Happening

  We watched this last night.  I'm not quite sure what to say about it.  His movies are never believable - they are somewhat fantasy.  This movie wasn't any different.  If you don't wanna know about the movie, then don't read this because i'll probably give away the story.

Let me first say that Mark Walberg (or however you spell it) was good.  Zooey Deschanel wasn't good.  Kinda obnoxious.  She's the go to girl for closeups on a girl with big puppy dog eyes - her acting, not so much.

it was a scary movie.  I'm not sure what made it so scary, I think it was just that the "thing" that was killing everyone couldn't be seen yet you knew it was coming.  You know it was right on the heels of the main characters.  (This movie would have been bad for Stewart to see since he is scared of the wind as it is.)  So when the movie ends, you never really know what it was - everyone has their own assumptions but what was clear to me is that this was another stupid story about being eco-friendly.  When everyone started speculating that the  the plants were releasing toxins as a defense mechanism - i think i rolled my eyes so hard they rolled out of my head and off the bed and onto the floor - we all know the on top of spaghetti song.

Stupid Al Gore and his stupid shoving it down your throat to take care of the planet.  I'm not saying that i don't think pollution is a problem blah blah blah - i'm just saying that I don't need it force fed to me while i'm trying to relax and watch a movie - FOR ENTERTAINMENT.  Happy Feet had an eco-friendly message that was annoying.  This movie, in my opinion, had an annoying eco-friendly theme, WallE, Independence day, . . . I just want to watch a movie.
