I watched The Village last night. Some people don't like M. Night Shyamalan's movies, but you certainly have to give him credit for out-of-the-Hollywood-box thinking. He always seems to throw in a "here's one more thing I'll put in my movie to get them thinking". I don't like to give away much in a movie in case you haven't seen them, but The Village and The Sixth Sense are excellent examples of this, and to a less obvious extent Signs and Unbreakable.
And speaking of Hollywood movies, I saw The Notebook last Sunday. This romantic drama was incredibly predictable and had a formulaic plot. However, I thought the acting was quite impressive and the scripting was entertaining. I'd definitely recommend it to the right audience.
