Signs Ratings & Reviews
- keithy077March 12, 2026You think being Kevin McCalister brother they would have booby trapped the house. Also think pretty well written, most loose ends tied off. I was waiting for the rock to come back from the feild, that would of been funny.
- SeanFebruary 15, 2026Aliens who are allergic to water decide to visit a planet covered in water with an atmosphere made of water populated by beings mostly made of water
- SimmageJanuary 12, 2026Great movie, had us on the edge of our seats. Nice message at the end as well
- NathanTheDadFebruary 22, 2025Signs is a masterpiece. The religious overtones were a misguided concept yet add so much to the tone of the film. The score, dialogue, cinematography, and religious theming all pull on the viewer *just enough* to keep them thinking "what the hell is going on?" The themes of fate and luck are a fascinating experience viewed through the lens of reality. Grant attributing their survival to a diety is surreal and almost funny. This is the story of a family who gets REALLY lucky over and over. Existential horror slapstick.
- ZokkiieJanuary 2, 2026A tense, creepy little thriller, with Mel Gibson doing his thing really well. The whole “aliens invading a planet that’s mostly water” is kinda ridiculous, especially considering their weird weakness, but I guess Shyamalan was going into the religious vibes—water as life, birth, protection, all that. Still, it’s a fun, well-paced ride with enough suspense to keep you hooked.
- Kit LazerJuly 19, 2025Can I say something absolutely insane? Signs is one of the best-looking movies ever made. And the score is incredible. Genuinely scary, bizarrely so funny, such a little miracle of a movie.
- douglascraigenOctober 25, 2024This movie is flawless.
- sti53September 19, 2025- Don't scare your sister. - I'm already scared!
- Kristian OdlandJuly 30, 2025This is just one of M. Night Shyamalan’s perfect 4 movies! Watching this with someone who has never seen it before is so much fun! I love this!
- zappy.December 15, 2025Acting was phenomenal. I think I’m scarred from this movie, til this day. That one scene - if you’ve seen this movie, you know which scene - was nightmare fuel for the young me. Nevertheless, an incredible story that went on to inspire Scary Movie 3 (if I’m not mistaken).
- Sarah JDecember 13, 2025Wholesome
- Mycroft001November 21, 2025Subtle in it's messaging, with just the right about of thriller and a touch of alien horror. Top soundtrack
- CravanThePugilistNovember 3, 2025It may only be a single, extremely brief scene - but this movie is one of very few to actually terrify me, & I've seen most horror movies under the sun/moon. Touching family dynamics also, & just well handled as a whole as far as What Would Happen If Aliens Invaded.
- runinhotNovember 2, 2025Are you the type of person that sees signs
- Himanshu SinghOctober 27, 2025The director is a master at creating the eerie tense atmosphere which draws you into the world.
