I saw the Happening with two of my friends (mainly because i wouldn't shut up about it lol) this summer a month or so back before school ended and it was pretty cool.
Plot: Due to a mysterious cause, supposedly a bioterrorist attack, people affected kill themselves! In the movie, this epidemic starts in New York at central park and begins to spread outward toward the rest of the northeastern states. The storyline has a good element with everyone killing themselves, but the exact cause is never explained. And, as a movie by M. Night Shyamalan, I was honestly expecting a crappy plot twist near the end... but the ending is actually pretty good (laughs).
Characters: There were no unrealistic elements among the characters luckly (Unlike Resident Evil and they're character Alice... omg). Everyone is believable! YAY!!
Epic scenes: Everyone loves epic scenes, the most memorable scenes in the movie! For example, everyone whose seen the lion king will remember the part when mufasa died, when simba lived in the jugle with timon and pumba, those are what i call "Epic Scenes", scenes that set the motion for the rest of the movie and stick in your mind forever. This movie thankfully has plenty of worthy epic scenes. Especially with the old lady near the climax... but I'm not saying anymore than that!
My Rating: I give this movie a 7.7 out of 10 for it's suspensful musical score, it's shocking moments and it's clever, yet baffling plot design. Good to have on the DVD shelf.
