Action Comedy Drama Mystery Sci-Fi Thriller

5.0 / 10

Elliot Moore is a high school science teacher who quizzes his class one day about an article in the New York Times. It's about the sudden, mysterious disappearance of bees. Yet again Nature is doing something inexplicable, and whatever science has to say about it will be, in the end, only a theory. Scientists will bring out more theories, but no explanations, when a more urgent dilemma hits the planet. It begins in Central Park. Suddenly and inexplicably, the behavior of everyone in the park changes in a most bizarre and horrible way. Soon, the strange behavior spreads throughout the city and beyond. Elliot, his wife, Alma, and Jess, the young daughter of a friend, will only have theories to guide them where to run and where to hide. But theories may not be enough.

This is why I'm never paying to go see, or even generally watching an M. Night shamalyn film. I'm a screenwriter, and if I took a shit in my toilet and filmed it, it would be a better movie. M. Night shamalyn is terrible at making films, and from a writer's perspective, if you genuinely think that he is a "filmmaker", you have no business being a film geek. He's not fucking Stanley Kubrick, OKAY?!!!! HES SHIT. Face it. - @Monday, November 5, 2018 6:47 AM

[spoiler alert] I dont think this movie was a case of bad acting, I think it had more to do with the script. I get that it wanted to be a passive intellectual thriller but it wasnt even that.. there were barely any mindblowin plot twists, the only time it had me on the edge of my seat was when the old lady started bumpin her head against the windows..after that it just went downhill again. At the end of the movie i was left thinkin: thefuck did i just watch. Overall = meh - @Monday, April 30, 2018 3:20 PM

I swear I'm not kidding but half way watching the movie I was wondering if it's a parody/comedy or thriller.. I'm serious!! If this wasn't parody then this was the worst acting and directing I've seen in a very long time. Don't waste your time watching it. - @Monday, October 30, 2017 12:39 PM

.....I could've told you this movie would be bad just from the trailer had I seen it before the movie came out.
