Taste of Cinema: 15 M. Night Shyamalan Movies Ranked
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. "When he first got his breakthrough in the late 90s, he was celebrated as the next big thing but the inconsistency through his career made him somewhat of a divisive filmmaker. At some point in his career, he seemed like he makes only failures and if you were no fan of his earlier output, then it wasn’t hard to hate him. Him always trying to defend his work from criticism was not a good look also. Then again, he always had his fans and defenders as well because no one makes movies like M. Night Shyamalan, for better or worse. He has his own style which is somewhat distinctive in modern mainstream cinema. His way of using camera, the way he builds suspense, how he brings some dramatic thought-provoking themes into his movies and his way of bringing unpredictable twists still brings so much entertainment to his fans which is probably why they always make good business at the box office. They’re also original. It doesn’t mean he doesn’t do adaptations but he picks materials that are different than anything else on cinemas. That’s why he’s always intriguing and interesting. The man is very passionate about his craft and it’s very evident in big part of his filmography."
