Quite good looking

'Happening' has come very close to a 'traditional Hollywood blockbuster'. But it still retains a bit of Shyamalan's style:

the perspective of the workers jumping off the building is too unique; the

male protagonist talking to the plastic tree in the model room is too funny; in the

end, the male and female protagonists "go out" but are safe and sound, this disaster, really The so-called "sudden death" was still played by the Indian boy with a heavy hand.

Taking into account the habits and rhythm of the general audience, the atmosphere is particularly good, and it is much better than the rambunctious "Banshee in the Water".

Disaster movies, all based on 2012, are also quite boring. Like Happening, it is both economical and affordable, and it is more realistic and touching to reflect the face of ordinary people in the face of disaster in a microscopic way.

Chinese filmmakers should learn to pay tribute to Indian boys, and see great skill at a small cost.

    I thought that the title "Happening" should be translated as "Zaijie" or "The wind is in my ears."

The Happening quotes

  • Alma Moore: Mrs. Jones, um, something's happened along the east coast.

    Mrs. Jones: Whatever it is that you think is so important that you need to tell me - don't. Just keep it to yourself. The world don't care about me. I don't care about it.

  • Elliot Moore: Do you remember our first date? You were so quiet.

    Alma Moore: You bought me the mood ring.

    Elliot Moore: It turned purple when you wore it.

    Alma Moore: Then you said "that means you're in love".

    Elliot Moore: Got you to talk, didn't it?

    Alma Moore: But then we checked the little paper chart and it turned out that it meant that I was horny. You loved that.

    Elliot Moore: I had no idea.

    Alma Moore: Yours was blue. Peaceful, right?

    Elliot Moore: Right.

    Alma Moore: What color was love?

    Elliot Moore: I don't remember.

    Alma Moore: Me neither.
