An average movie

Obviously, like all the recent movies directed by M. Night Shyamalan, this movie has a really lame reputation but, in my opinion, it was not as bad as 'Lady in the water’ which remains by far the worst movie delivered by Shyamalan so far or even 'The Last Airbender'. In fact, I think it actually some potential but, unfortunately, as usual with this director, it turned out to be terribly underwhelming. I mean, the directing was decent and it was visually pretty neat  it but the guy has to seriously stop writing his movies. Indeed, the story just barely worked and, above all, there was again the typical dreadful Shyamalan twist at the end. I mean, with ‘The Sixth Sense’, I already thought this gimmick was lame but, 10 years later, it was seriously pathetic and nobody was buying it anymore. On top of that, I have nothing against Mark Walhberg but couldn't they pick up a more believable actor to play a biological teacher ?! In fact, Walhberg himself did admit regretting his involvement in this movie. To conclude, I still think the damned thing had some potential, it could have been nice but the end-result was just weak and I think I’m actually generous with my rating here.
