This Lady Has Got Magic

The simple idea of having an apartment complex come together as a whole to attempt to rescue something most of them would never believe in is, in my mind, refreshing. Usually, all these types of characters would never believe such a thing, but we know how M. Night feels about people trying to figure out his characters. ;) Anyway, the mood of the film was perfect, I enjoyed every single character in the movie, it was as if I could have watched a separate film about the lives of the other characters and been enthralled in those movies, they all had such a past to them.

The story, I'll admit, did seem a bit forced, it kind of went from a slow build up to everything and suddenly we're being chases by creatures out of no where, but after that it maintains a steady pace and keep you hooked till the end.

Finally, M. Night did something wonderful with his film critic character, and I can not wait for anyone to see how he does this, but it's sure to irritate, anger, and upset a handful of critics who think they are Gods. :p
