DILinator, you are pretty far off base actually. I am more talking about feeling like my skull had been bashed in with the persistent revealing of these providential "signs". I get it, she has a thing with water. I get it, the aliens don't like the water. For my taste, there was a bit too much repetition in making sure everyone saw the signs, but that's just my opinion. That is what I meant by heavy handed.
I have no problem with the religious nature of the film. Anyways, It's more about faith than religion for me. All that being said, I still LOVE Signs. It is one of my favorite movies. I love the characters, the relationships and the way people interact with each other in M Nights films, and that is why I love this film.
