The Happening Reviews and Ratings
Average Review Rating : negative
Positive Review Rating : 28%
The film confirms that its creators once vice like grip on the public imagination and skillful, borderline sadistic manipulation of audience emotions has given way to clammy, flop sweat drenched flailing. ( Read More )
The Happening doesnt do that, but that, too, is appropriate and zeitgeisty; most of the really good horror movies of the last five years have had unhappy endings. ( Read More )
Despite the directors ability to develop and maintain a queasy sort of escalating dread, The Happening ultimately never surpasses the timeless thrill of watching the grass grow and then mowing the hell out of it. ( Read More )

The Happening works in early spurts, but apparently Shyamalan ran out of ideas once he came up with his uniquely insidious killer. ( Read More )
Its intellectually cagey, potentially romantic, and, above all, an entertaining puzzle box of duplicitous people doing mysterious things, men and women. ( Read More )
