This interpretation of a bed time story that first introduces characters weirder than the ones in "Batteries Included." We are lead to believe they are all in some sort of transition in life and are given a purpose.
The film has a "B" movie knockoff of a Spielberg feel. Every time they look up you expect a bicycle crossing the moon.
The characters and the actors look like cardboard knockoffs of famous actors more than people. Bryce Dallas Howard in make up looks like a young Tilda Swinton.
Then "Whisper in the Noise" mangles a great Dylan song "Times are a Changing"
Grate concept - pitiful execution.

Reviews
a grown-up "bedtime story"
Review date: 2006-12-12 Rating: 10 out of 10
M. Night Shyamalan is to be congratulated. i thoroughly enjoyed this film, a struggle for one ordinary man who in the most extrodinary circomstances finds he is not so plain and like the others in the film has his own talents.
this is a must see for anyone, although slightly nervous people may want to make sure they are not holding anything that is likely to spill or stain. watch and you'll understand what i mean.
this film leaves you with a smile and plenty to think about as you mop up the spilt coffee you wear drinking before. a regular modernday bedtime story that will remind of being a child and begin told a story before bed time...
a film for any and all film watchers!!
