Just because a writer can produce something as good as the Sixth Sense, doesn't mean that everything he writes is going to work. The Village is OK, but I think a bunch of Grade School kids could have done a better job. Talk about predictable! No spoilers here, but you don't need them. You can figure out the twist in the first 15 minuets of the show. This movie drags from one scene to the next. The "twist" is pathetic. M. Night Shyamalan, can, and has done so much better. It reminds me of Stephen King. He has very good books, and some out and out lame books. Same deal here. Now Mr. Shyamalan has come out with Lady in the Water, or something. Another dog from what I've heard, I'm going to wait until I can rent the DVD. So, bottom line, like I said before, it's OK, but if you want acting, a story, and an excellent twist, watch The Sixth Sense.

Sphinx
(1981)
Not the Mummy
10 December 2001
Sphinx isn't the greatest movie about Egypt, but it is somewhat entertaining. I'd probably buy it if it came out on DVD, but it wouldn't be my first choice. It's worth it to watch Leslie Ann Down, she's not the smartest Egyptologist, but she's still very easy on the eyes.
