Read Reviews for LADY in WATER

New York Observer · The New York Post

   Will a Water Nymph eat Rotten Tomatoes?? If it's M. Night's water nymph, looks like it may have no choice. Here's the LINK to RT to read reviews on LADY IN THE WATER... 
Here's my favorite quote of all, from Lou Lumenick's review in The New York Post: "The M. Night Shyamalan who made LADY IN THE WATER isn't seeing dead people anymore - he's turned into a crackpot with messianic delusions who's one more flop away from directing TV commercials...or perhaps a three-picture deal with Tom Cruise."

	RAZZ: it is not looking good for M. Night; in fact it is looking like GOOD NIGHT as of this posting!

	I don't usually root for studio executives to be proven right over film-makers, but in this case, I'll make an exception: Everything I've seen and read about "Lady in the Water" makes it look like the biggest Hollywood ego-indulgence project since Kevin Costner's Razzie sweeping "The Postman" nearly 10 years ago!

	Hey, John, fellas... Link this link to your browser and get this juicy tidbit from critic Rex Reed over at IMDB.com's Studio Page Headlines Entry #2... http://www.imdb.com/news/sb/2006-07-25/#2 He pratically takes his review of "Lady" and sinks it way below the water, all the way to the ocean floor! Film Comes up in Third for Warner Bros. with $18 mil. Maybe M. Night's IMDB column is about to open space for a Razzie nod for Worst Screenplay or Director... May I suggest to The G.R.A.F. to take into consideration to come up with a new year-round category: Most Uppity Executive to Greenlight an Idea or Film...?

	Our newcomer is right RAZZ; If you thought the reviews were...how should I put it..."descriptive" enough over at Rotten Tomatoes just read the following.... "As numerous critics have noted, M. Night Shyamalan's Lady in the Water arrived pretty much dead in the water last weekend. Now, critic Rex Reed is administering a few flourishing kicks to the corpse. Writing in the New York Observer, Reed writes, "Hollywood cannot pollute the ozone with anything more idiotic, contrived, amateurish or sub-mental than Lady in the Water." That's the second sentence of his review. In his third sentence, he calls the movie, "this piece of pretentious, paralyzing twaddle." In his last sentence of the paragraph, he remarks, "In a war of wits, brains, imagination and talent, Mr. Shyamalan would be defenseless." One is left with the feeling that Reed didn't enjoy the movie."
