The Complete Filmography of Mel Gibson

Good movie. There's just one thing that I think needs to be pointed out, however.

When Mel Gibson discovers that Danny Glover is hiding the illegal Chinese immigrants in his house, Glover explains that he's just trying to help them attain freedom, "which is more than anyone ever did for my ancestors."

Um...excuse me? What do you think the underground railroad and the abolitionist movement were in aid of, Sgt. Murtaugh?

Another M. Night Shyamalan movie that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. I mean, the aliens are hurt by water, right? Okay, so never mind the fact that they're attempting to invade a planet that is covered mostly by water. And never mind the fact that water in its various forms rains regularly down from the sky. After all, if these guys can't even figure out how to kick their way through a pantry door, then we're obviously not dealing with practical thinkers here (which raises the question of how they were even able to construct spacecraft and travel here in the first place, but like I said, never mind). What really annoys me is that it didn't occur to Shyamalan to allow for the fact that our very atmosphere - the air we breathe - is filled with H2O. Following this, the aliens should have choked agonizingly to death (or at least had all their skin melt off) the moment they stepped outside their ship and onto our soil. And speaking of soil, how can the aliens walk around barefoot in our H2O-possessed dirt, or the dew that covers the grass in the early evening? These aliens should be wearing protective suits with air filters, for pity's sake!

When Shyamalan writes a story, he does so in the same naive, amateurish, half-assed way an eight-year-old child would. He comes up with the seed of a good idea, then runs with it, not bothering to refine it or work out any of the kinks that adult fiction wouldn't tolerate.
