I would like first to apologize for any grammar or spelling mistake, English is not my first language.
The main problem with this film is that it didn't attract the right crowd. >From what I could see from the preview, it really looked like an horror movie, the kind of movie that makes you whimper in your seat with what i call "jumps" you know when the monster jumps out of nowhere and scares the hell out of you (when it's well directed although) BUT it was not that, the monster story is more like a pretext to talk about values, fear, isolation and the myth of utopia with a touch of suspense.
Luckily for me, I enjoy dramas and suspense so I really liked the movie even if it was not what i expected, I think I prefer it to be like that than an horror flick. But it is obvious that anyone who was really interested in seeing a horror movie might felt cheated. And those who would have liked the movie but didn't like horror didn't go to see it because they thought it would be an horror movie. I would personally blame it on the previews who were misleading.
The same thing happened with the movie "Willard" (The remake not the old one, the old was not very good) I think it was a very great dark movie about anger, rejection, revenge and social misfits (the movie is not perfect I admit it but I still think it is great :) ) Anyone who would have liked it didn't go because they thought it would be a gore-filled tripes-all-over-the-place and rats-killing-spree horror B movie and those who wanted that and went to see it were deceived.
Well lets return to the Village, shall we ? To be honest, the plot was OK, YES the twist was predictable but I don't think the twist is the main point of the movie, the actors were great (all hail to adrian brody and Bryce Howard) the D.O.P is wonderful, simply stunning and the artistic direction is really great (the choice and the reminiscence of colors was well done) and the music is incredible
It IS a good movie and I think that it deserves a chance. Well let's give it 3 stars out of 5. And this as they say is that.

Ok, ok, I know its a bit old, it looks more like theater than a real movie but, man, what an incredible performance from the actors ! I've rarely seen such acting. And the story was so great, I mean, I've read the book 5 times (and its about 1620 pages long) and the TV series are as great as the book. A must
