[QUOTE="The_lurkeR, post: 1685763, member: 11092"] I'm really surprised by the reaction here, I thought it was an excellent film. :) The audience I saw it with reacted well throughout the movie, and heavy chatter began as soon as the credits started rolling. If it was done by anyone other than Night, I think peoples reactions might have been different. He's a victim of his own fame in that people now walk into the theaters trying to figure it out, instead of enjoying the movie experience. Rather than feel betrayed by "the twist", I would think people should congratulate him for making them feel and believe like the characters in the film. I also have to call B*S* on the people who "figured it out from the beginning". There is nothing in the film which telegraphs the end, before Night begins to reveal it. If you happened to guess it, it's nothing other than lucky meta-gaming. The film was beautiful, well acted, well directed, and with deeper themes than just "the twist". I feel sorry for people who can't see and enjoy it for that. [/QUOTE]
