The Happening
A couple of weeks ago I delved into the deep dark world of late career M. Nigh Shyamalan with a live tweet of The Happening (2008). Oh my it was painful. A pain you can re-live here.
Time for my rubbish M. Night Shyamalan live tweet. The winner of the poll on my site was… THE HAPPENING. Brace yourself

So does anyone out there have something even minutely positive to say about THE HAPPENING? #thehapptweet

Two minutes in… No happening. Unless clouds with shitty credits music is The Happening? #thehapptweet

Why is this woman I've seen act really well in other films acting so insanely terribly? #thehapptweet

That was possibly the worst shaky cam shot in the history of cinema #thehapptweet

Holy shite! Was that Cameron from Ferris Bueller? Let my Cameron gooooo #thehapptweet

The scientific mumbo jumbo jargon in this is hilarious… don't think it's meant to be #thehapptweet

Zooey Deschanel is one of those naturally charismatic performers. But here she is just awkward and clunky as. That's happening #thehapptweet

Why do people pause totally around where others are commiting suicide? Riddle me that M. Night. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
I've got it! The Happening is that huge blue woman's ring Marky Mark is rocking #thehapptweet

Suicide by provoking a tiger… … makes sense. As much as anything else in this film. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
Um… the dialogue in this Leguizamo goodbye scene is so bad and awkward I had to look away from the screen. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
The suicide angle in this film is a little whack. Not sure how I feel about the issue being treated like this #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
I can't recall enduring a film with acting as terrible as this for a long time. No one is coming out of it well. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
Haha, love how the wind is all of a sudden entirely visible. That's convenient. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
And they got winded on but nothing happened. At least try and make sense! #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
Is The Happening just like really bad hayfever? I hate that shit. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
This whole notion it's big groups of people setting it off contradicts basically everything else so far in the film. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
Well that's the most unnecessary double gunning down of teenagers in a film basically ever. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
Seriously, what the hell were the people behind this film thinking. Just in general. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
That creepy fuckin doll is behind it all I tells ya #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
There is no rhyme or reason to when the wind can be seen & how many people are needed to trigger the suicides. Daft. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
The Happening. More like The Crappening. Zing… man it's getting late. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
I thought this film was going to involve Marky Mark as a boffin who saved the world. That (possibly) would've been far better. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
How did a film making so little sense even manage to get released? #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
Erm… so what was happening all this time? #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
The global warming allusions are SUBTLE!!! #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
Well that was incredibly bad. Unfortunately not so bad it's good bad either. #thehapptweet
— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) August 3, 2013
Verdict: Schooner of Tooheys New
