The characters and the actors who portray them never cease to entertain me. All that aside, he does look to be taking a crap in that last picture. Maybe that's what's <i>happening</i>.

The lady behind Marky Mark looks like she heard a dog whistle while thinking about dick. The lady camera left looks ultra vacant like she had her front lobe lobotomized. Leguizamo looks like he just heard big bird swear in front of his daughter. Daughter looks like a sweet little talented special but sad kitten for stated reason. And finally Marky Mark may be displaying some kind of tension but it really just looks like somebody is tangling a yummy cheeseburger he can't have off camera for him to flare his nostrils at. I repeat... there is nothing in this picture to allude to anything horrific. Their probably all just at a Macy Grey Concert. Nobody in the picture could be said to be exhibit fear, horror, or "being scared". Maybe their all just staring at the horrible twist thats coming their way.

Apparently it's about plants not being happy with the negative energies that humans are putting out, so they start releasing toxins that kill humans. The air is the antagonist here. The protagonist and his wife work out their marriage problems, channel a lot of love, step outside and... nothing happens. They survive. The end.

Night's work including Lady in The Water. I mean, I can see why people took aim at it, but I thought it was a real charmer. The Happening on the other hand I find somewhat frustrating. that trailer told us nothing and these pictures tell us even less. I still have friends that think it might actually be about Killer Bees. I for one am willing to check out the movie based on the talent alone, but can they really sell tickets with Whalberg and an air of mystery? This movie is going to get lost in the summer blockbuster shuffle I really like M. Night’s work including Lady in The Water.
