Ishana Shyamalan's 'The Watchers': A Promising but Flawed Horror Debut

Ishana Shyamalan's debut film "The Watchers" is a supernatural horror with elegant direction and a high-concept premise but is marred by clunky dialogue and a predictable twist. While the film showcases her potential to follow in her father M. Night Shyamalan's footsteps, it struggles with character development and a rushed, unsatisfying conclusion. Dakota Fanning stars as Mina, who must navigate a dangerous forest and entertain unseen creatures to survive. The movie is visually striking but ultimately falls flat in its storytelling. Grade: C.
