    I don’t care what anyone says - I loved this film. Its music was utterly genius.

    I'll never forget in the packed theater, the collective gasp from everybody when the birthday party footage of the alien walking past the alleyway. That was a good time

    I saw this in theaters when it came out in 2002. I distinctly remember the crickets ceasing their chirping. I'm from the Midwest and used to live on a farm. When the crickets stop, something or someone is out there, moving. Surprised more people didn't catch that!!!

    Surprised that no one mentioned that that the title "Signs" are representing the crop circles, but also that these events are "signs" from God to try to pull Mel Gibson's character back to faith.

    This is honestly one of the creepiest, most disturbing movies I have ever seen. Disturbing and frightening yet, beautiful. Such a great film.

    It took me 20 years to notice that Graham's comment about bringing their dog to a normal doctor was in response to Ray's profession! Well done, Chris! This film is truly timeless.

    I'm becoming uncomfortably aware of the window behind me.

    The "disturbing footage" scene still gives me shivers. It felt so horrifyingly real.

    Merrill mentioned that the aliens can change the color of their skin to their surroundings. When the alien is holding Morgan, you can see his arm is blending in with the flannel pattern on Morgan’s shirt. Small details like this are what make this film incredible. Never noticed this till your freeze frame at

    Those people who said the Alien was stupid for being trapped in a pantry are the stupid one's. Imagine being trapped in an aliens house, you wouldn't know what's what. It's an Alien House!

    This movie is a masterpiece and your review gives it justice. I loved literally everything about Signs: the story, the settings (rural USA), the music, the actors, the new and interesting take on alien invasion, the Faith element etc. I'm from France but this movie encompasses almost everything I love about the US. The film also left a strong impression on me and influenced a lot the way I approach movies these days so I can totally relate to what you were saying in your review. One thing which deserved more attention though in my opinion is the soundtrack by James Newton Howard. It contributes a lot to the overall ambiance of the movie.

    The one part that always freaked me out and gave me chills was the part where they are finishing up boarding up the windows in the house and Mel Gibson comes up to his bedroom window at

    One additional point that always struck me about this film: The cornfields. It’s as though the cornfields are an entity in and of themselves. A presence which lurks in the background, threatening, intimating, and concealing a hidden menace.
