Reviews

The Hollywood Reporter - Kirk Honeycutt
Shyamalan does project genuine menace and suspense into this mundane location, especially in nighttime scenes. But the magic that would transport you from reality into fantasy is missing.

New York Magazine (Vulture) - Unnamed
What's odd about Lady in the Water is that for all Shyamalan's histrionics, he's overcontrolled.
50
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum
Shyamalan's most alienating and self-absorbed project to date.
42
The A.V. Club - Nathan Rabin
Shockingly misconceived, poorly executed effort.
40
Variety - Brian Lowry
A ponderous, self-indulgent bedtime tale. Awkwardly positioned, this gloomy gothic fantasy falls well short of horror.
