I was going to entitle this post ‘The Fall of M Night Shyamalan<\/a>‘, but he actually made a couple of movies before The Sixth Sense<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Title<\/th>\nYear<\/th>\nIMDB score<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n

Perhaps he should take to time out and try to recapture what he had with The Sixth Sense<\/em> and Unbreakable<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
