SIGNS (2002) | FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION

Signs (2002) First Time Watching Movie Reaction, Review, and Commentary for JL. Many moments of confusion over the alien's scouting/navigation departments and MANY thoughts about how close this movie came to being tossed in the "never again" pile over two dogs and a kid were had.

This was the first alien film that scared me. It felt personal. The previous ones were always about the government and military fighting the aliens, and it always just felt like an action story in which we would always win. This film made me feel like the aliens could actually touch and affect me. That scared me.

[@cosmicvale]

Same. I was 9-10 when I first saw this. This movie scared me more than a lot of others. I haven't been able to express it, but saying that the feeling they could actually touch and affect me without it being an action movie is straight on point.

The Fourth Kind is creepy as balls, imo. I watched it with two buddies while we had a few drinks, all of us in our mid 20s at the time, and we all agreed it was super creepy. It's because it feels like it could happen.

[@Robocop999999999]

Communion gave me the same feeling as a child. It's definitely a very bizarre film and not as grounded as Signs though. There are a few scenes that really got to me, namely the scene where Christopher Walken's character sees the alien watching him.

It doesn't necessarily have to be for food. It could have been for dissection, experiments, or other purposes. All we know is that they were seen gassing the people and taking them.

[@VoidVintage]

Did you notice how she said she needed a glass of water to fight the monster? Instant foreshadowing. She knew what they needed to fight them. She just needed to bless the water first to fight the demons. Not aliens.

[@FurryStockings]

There's an interesting theory about this movie that honestly made me appreciate the movie even more, is that those Alien species are dying themselves, and that this "invasion" of a planet that has their weakness was purely out of desperation, because when you see one in the broadcast, that one alien is hunched over in the bushes, looking really afraid, they're usually seen alone too; and also that last alien holding Morgan also looked scared, it looked like a robber taking a hostage and threatening to kill them, he's also clearly nervous from the way he's moving.

[@jesusramirezromo2037]

The script makes it clear they're never alone, it's hard to pick up in the movie, but they always travel in large groups During the house invasion, i always assumed there where just 2, but if you watch the deleted scenes, there's clearly at least 6 And in the script, they say thay when they where covering the windows, Graham could see streeks in the cornfield moving towards the house, at first a few, then many all heading to the house, and one of the work prints with the radio segment near the end mentioned how they would hide in the shadows, then overwhelmed people with pure numbers

[@dogtagduke7125]

Yes. The desperation aspect definitely needs to be considered. It’s hard enough to find a planet with life on it, so if they are desperate for resources, then they may just take the risk and land on Earth, regardless of what may happen because the alternative is their demise.

[@shannonholt5343]

Truth!

[@citypopFM]

I am elated that you pointed that out. I always found it to be the best scene of the film and criminally overlooked.

[@takigan]

That whole arc starting from dinner time until they get to the basement is the best part of the movie. Particularly the scene where a broken father is convinced that he's reached his final moments and he's choosing to use that time to remember the days when each of his beloved children were born. It's one of the most beautiful (and underrated) moments in cinema history, and Mel Gibson sells it. I cry every single time.

[@tylersalter9133]

Interesting fact from the DVD bonus features: the first scene to be filmed on this movie was the car crash flashback scene. It was filmed on September 12th, 2001. So needless to say, everyone involved already had the emotions ready. They did a candlelight vigil before they started shooting too.

[@monio.9444]

I've seen this movie as a kid and thought it's an alien mivie. Then saw it again as an adult and realized the aliens are a metaphor for the "demons" we have to put up with from thrauma. That's why the story focuses on this family and the guy who was in the accident. He locked his demon in the house and is running away, but he is aware that everything happens for a reason. The pastor however isn't on the same wavelenght yet, but he's getting there by the end of the movie. Loved the reaction video. I am glad to see people react to older movies because old movies were so much better than the majority of recent ones.

[@moviesthatsit]

It's not just a metaphor, the entire movie surrounds god, religion and faith! People are quick to dismiss that the creatures are demons but why make the main character a preacher? Why else are the creatures so primitive, without suits? We never see ships, just light, like portals. When the news says a way has been found to defeat them they say it is found in the middle east... near holy ground, near jerusalum, because It's not water that defeats them, it's holy water! That's why Bo's birth story is important, she is meant to be a kind of angel, her blessing all of the water glasses make them holy water. This isn't a religious movie but it is a movie about religion, faith, demons (personal, metaphorical and corporeal), and SIGNS! As in signs from god!

[@vly9257]

[@danh7211]

The way I look at the water thing is that they wanted something else here enough that it was worth the risk to them. Like look at Deadliest Catch. It's dangerous to humans to fish there, but it's still done because we want something that can't be caught elsewhere. Plenty of risks are taken all the time because the reward is considered worth it.

[@3toobular]

Keep in mind that they purposely landed in areas where there was not an abundance of water such as the coast or at lakes. They likely took a chance that humans would not realize or discover this weakness before they quick attacked and crippled the Globe in multiple areas. Everything has a weakness so why can't theirs be water based on their molecular make up? I like your comparison.

[@FallenRingbearer]

It's remotely possibly they hadn't encountered water as pure as ours. Only way I can accept it.

[@ScarlettM]

Except we don't fish buck naked with bare hands. If those aliens just had protective suits (you are on another planet!) and some tools - it would have been a different story.

[@LittleBlueOwl318]

It's so suspenseful, we all know it's gonna come and STILL it managed to make me jump out of my seat and go "nope, nope, nope" pausing the VHS-player until I gathered enough courage to continue. Dope reaction! 10/10 Edit: So, I've always thought of the aliens coming to Earth as a raid, not a full scale invasion. They didn't want nothing but to stock up on some provisions and then continue their journey elsewhere. They scouted beforehand and probably got detailed data about where to go and not to go to avoid water, and even during a raid you expect some losses, but in the grand scheme of things it'd be worth it. So, down, snatch some people, up and away.

The little girl, according to the dad retelling her story, mentions how she was a little angel. Throughout the film she sees things and knows things that a regular kid shouldn't. Add the fact that mel Gibson was more or lessed protected by God makes me think she blessed the water, making the aliens weak to them.

[@straker454]

So, this film is remarkable because if you take it as a legit alien invasion film it's really bad...BUT if you take it as a demonological phenomenon, it's actually great. There's a lot of things in this that add little hints about the religious aspects like the daughter being described as an angel when she was born and only taking sips of water, effectively blessing them, making them holy water which is what kills the "alien" at the end. It's a VERY interesting fan theory that makes this film work for me and unfortunately, I don't recall Shyamalan intending that to be the case. Wisely he smiles and says nothing.

[@moviesthatsit]

The plot is based around a preacher's loss of faith & signs from god. Crop circles are often considered religious by a lot of theorists. The way to defeat them is found "in the middle east" as in near holy land. The creatures are too animal to seem like sophisticated space travelers (no suits? locked in a pantry? no weapons, only travel on foot) and we never see ships, just lights in the sky which look more like portals. Shyamalan may not confirm bc he wants the movie to remain ambiguous and up to viewer's interpretations, but you cannot tell me the demon (again personal, metaphorical, corporeal) aspect was not intentional.

I always liked the dark comedy idea that their Species were here to help. Like “I’m sorry about your dog! He attacked me! And idk if you noticed but their saliva is mostly water!” “Hey! Let me out of here!” *cuts off fingers* “look, I can cure your sons asma right now!” *picks up bat* “yo no look! Look!” *cures lungs* *wack with a bat* “it said that I’m going to die.” Alien: yes! If you don’t change the way you treat your planet it’s going to kill you!!!

[@grendelz]

The performances in this movie are incredible.

[@RckrGrl2010]

Definitely watch War of The Worlds with Tom Cruise. It’s amazingggggg ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Mr.Schitzengigglez]

I love your take on things, my man. You're a good dude.

[@USCFlash]

The hilarious thing about the party scene: It takes place in in Passo Fundo, Brazil....all the kids are freaking out, talking in Portuguese, the last boy is speaking Portuguese as well....suddenly, at the perfect moment, he cries out in English "EEEETS BEHIIIIND!!!", lol...who is he saying that to? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Silly change that takes away from the building fear & tension.

Always leave a glass of water 💧 on the nightstand. Just in case. 😆

26:24 Mel Gibson: "I heard a theory that uh... they don't like places near water. We'd be safe from them near a lake or something." Kid: "Sounds made up." Murder Whistle: " You've got aluminum foil on your head and you'll say what I say something about it. You got a helluva f***ing nerve."

Little Miss Sunshine is another banger worth checking out

[@embriggs1]

The little boy speaking Spanish said, "They key to the plot!"

[@Mark_E_M]

Another great alien movie to watch and react to is "Fire in the Sky"!

[@MsPxeDst]

Yes! That movie was great

[@lisainthecold4287]

Yes and based on a true story. Not sure if it was debunked but I believed it when I was younger

[@CinWin516]

LMAO I swear, JL is just about the only reactor that can make me laugh all throughout a scary movie.

[@cinemacodey]

You should watch "The Village" now. It's another M. Night movie. I love his movies and the trilogy "Unbreakable" "Split" and "Glass"

[@skillonidas2262]

My dad worked for CSX. He knew a guy like you’re talking about getting pinned between the couplings. He was good friends with him. The way it happened was they launched the car to couple up and he was crossing the tracks unaware and it pinned him. He was basically cut in half but still kinda held together by the couplings.

"Our water bill will be high as Willie Nelson" Hahahahahahahahaha Too Genius J.

[@codymoe4986]

If you're looking for another film including Abigail Breslin, the daughter, watch "Little Miss Sunshine" Excellent performance by her, but even more so by her fellow cast members. Greg Kinnear, Toni Collett, Paul Dano, Alan Arkin, Steve Carell, etc...IMO anyways. Judging from your other reactions, I definitely believe you'd enjoy it...

[@CinWin516]

"We would'a shot the mother f'ers and had 'em on the grill" LMAOOOOO🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Angelvalare]

Am I the only one answering him when he ask questions? lol

[@DAVO360]

‘We would’ve had em on the grill 🥩’ 😂 im dying bro lmao 💀💀 Hilarious reaction

[@ConspireOfficial]

I love the themes of faith in this movie, my fav Shyamalan movie

[@MsPxeDst]

Ahhhh, when M.Night Shyamalan was the talk of the town for all his movies.'The Sixth Sense' was his best one. I feel like 'Ransom' was Mel Gibsons best dramatic role.

[@Blaiyan]

This movie is the reason i haven't got rid of the giant water gun i had since i was a teenager lol

[@gersonribeiro374]

The little boy in the video wasn't speaking Spanish he was speaking Portuguese, he said "it's hiding behind the garage, it's over there!!!!!".

[@natashacutiepie6074]

You had me laughing so hard I forgot how traumatizing this film was lol You couldn't tell me aliens weren't real after this.
