I have mixed feeling about this film. While the film as a whole is a solid film. I mean the acting is actually pretty good, especially from Dave Bautista. The plot is a solid plot, and it's got some solid suspense and shocking scenes. So for M. Night Shyamalan, this is a nice return to form in terms of his past couple films. The problem to me is that it doesn't really have much of a M. Night Shyamalan feel. It's "big twist" wasn't even really a twist. And while it wasn't a bad decision, it just felt underwhelming. Even in his bad movies, he at least goes for it all in his movies. And this felt like he was just playing it really safe and straight forward. Overall I'm disappointed it was so straightforward but I'm glad it was a solid film in general.
