The Happening

(2008)

Jesus tree-hugging Christ, I've never seen a non-1970s movie jam-packed with so much flakey 1970s bullshit. Not only is it about the environment kicking our ass, but they also work in auras, a mood ring, and that whole "plants have feelings" thing. I'm surprised it didn't end with a bunch of people singing "I'd like to buy the world a Coke". This movie does have plenty of violence, but the problem is that the main people keep doing so many stupid things, like harassing gun-toting yokels (for absolutely no reason), or shacking up with a dangerously loony old lady and refusing to leave (again for absolutely no reason). On the plus side this does lead to more bloodshed, but on the negative side it's still utterly retarded and you can only ignore that for so long unless the movie also has tits, which this one doesn't. Plus the violence isn't all that great anyway; there's more badass gore in the first ten minutes of Maximum Overdrive than in this entire film. The only truly great part is when Dante Hicks commits suicide, but that was bound to happen in Clerks 4 anyway.
