Reviews

Philadelphia Inquirer - Carrie Rickey
A third-generation performer, this daughter of actor-director Ron Howard makes a stunning feature debut.

Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
The Village, even when its step falters, is on to something more provocative than seeing dead people. Its power, unrelated to digital monsters, comes from the tension building inside the characters.
67
Entertainment Weekly - Unnamed
It gives nothing of the plot away to say that there's a fine line between an ''Aha!'' and an ''Oh, brother!'' Whether you feel The Village crosses that line may hinge on whether you think Shyamalan's screenwriting ability is beginning to lag behind his skill as a director.
63
Chicago Tribune - Michael Wilmington
A big, creepy dollhouse of a movie--a sometimes engrossing shocker with a surprise ending that isn't especially shocking or surprising.
60
Time - Richard Corliss
The film's payoff raises more questions than it answers, which may be Shyamalan's intent in this political parable of fear.
