The Happening Movie Review

the_happening1

I just finished watching the Happening on Star Movies.  Honestly, I couldn’t understand it.  All I know is that people started dying when the wind blew through them.

So I have to read the plot through my favorite site, wikipedia 🙂

There was an epidemic wherein if a person get affected, he/she stands motionless first then ends up killing himself/herself.  It’s airborne so people get easily affected.

There were scenes that are hard to watch:

  • People jumping off high buildings one by one
  • People hanging themselves
  • a Man letting a mower ran over him
  • People firing guns at themselves
  • survivors killing 2 kids because they were trying to break in their house
Mark Wahlberg’s character together with his family & friends spent most of the time running away from the epidemic.
After awhile, it just stopped.  So people went back to their lives.  Not knowing that what happened was just a warning.
The movie ended just like how it started.  People started killing themselves again.
I’m kinda confused, I dont know what to feel.  I’m not sure if I liked the movie or not.  But what I’m sure of is I ended up stunned & wondered what I have watched 😛

My Rating for The Happening: 2 out of 5 stars.

    Having only seen 5 minutes of The Happening… i can't be a very good critic. Roch, reading your post makes me want to watch it even less.

    It was weird, and it didn't really grip my interest. If this is an M. Night Shayamalan movie, I'm not very fond of his style after the Sixth Sense.

    I fell asleep halfway through the movie. hahaha and yeah you're right, I don't get it that much either.
