Inventive review:
Philadelphia high school science teacher Elliot Moore (Mark Wahlberg) asks his students for theories on why honeybee populations are plummeting around the world. On a blackboard he has written Albert Einstein's quote that if bees disappeared humans would follow within four years.
Despite the inconvenient fact that there's no record of Einstein ever actually saying such a thing, it's a frightening thought. The camera could hold on that blackboard for the movie's 90 minutes and many of us wouldn't be able to sleep for a week.
But no: M. Night Shyamalan has metaphors to torture.

Follow Ups:
It wasn't bad...just not enough "there" there.
I'm thinking if you were to take all his movies and condense them, you'd have a good episode of Night Gallery.
The female lead seemed especially disinterested.
His first film was kind of " new ", since then we see the downfall...
