I really wanted to like it too, I've grown fond of all his movies in one way or another, but this.... the female lead was terrible, the suspense wasn't suspenseful.... It had an almost comic feel to it, like "Are you shitting me, they really made this a movie." I think he needs to spend some time directing someone else's material, his camerawork and visuals are still compelling, but story and script wise, this stunk....

Oh noes! I wanted to like!
I was afraid that'd be the case.
I've really only liked Unbreakable and The Village; and I know that certainly puts me in the minority.
Happening kinda screamed 'disappointment' to me from the previews.
