I have to say, I loved 'The Village' until the end. It was the end I had predicted, and the end I feared. Until then, it was amazing.

Wait, Adrien Brody is in The Village? I've been planning to rent it anyway, but now I've no choice. The Forgotten, on the other hand, I'm not familiar with.

I truly loved The Village as well..though others said a bunch of crap about it. I thought it was well done, great acting, and it held my attention the whole time. I just sat back and let it entertain me...rather than look for the silly stuff people said about it. I think M. Shyamlan's movies are always top notch..he has a great imagination :)

I saw both of these recently as well. And my pick of the two is The Forgotten. I didn't hate The Village the way some people did; it was entertaining with fairly decent writing and acting. But I did find it predictable. (Then again, I find all his movies predictable...) This is not necessarily bad. I like being right after predicting the movies ending about 15 minutes in. ;-)
