Query: A delightful change

Wow, this movie was not at all what I expected but I ended up loving it. True, a bit slow in parts, but overall, what a wonderful fantasy to get lost in, and what a nice change from all the regular Hollywood action-adventure-rock-em-sock-em-blood-and-guts stuff. Bryce Dallas Howard was the perfect choice for her role as Story...haunting and ethereal and completely enchanting. I expected this to be on the more "horror" side but I was more mesmerized and enchanted than frightened watching it. And I agree that M. Night Shyamalan was quite good in his role. C'mon, who hasn't been mystified my legends of mermaids and secret worlds below at one time or another? All in all, I think people will either really love it or really hate it, but it's worth opening your mind and giving your brain and your heart a little break from the norm. The theme of connectedness and that we all have a purpose in life was comforting and reassuring to me.
