This film was completely awful; I totally agree that M Night tried to craft a normal film but ended up creating a pile of shit and in turn used "IT'Z A B-MOVIE" to justify why it so awful. Now, the movie started out decent, even incorporating some nice metaphors. The problem is when these events start to happen to the main characters everything falls apart.
The biggest problems with this film are it portrays itself as a movie with something to say but becomes so flawed that you don't really care any more. If M Night was setting out to create a "B-Movie" I highly doubt he would have started it out with a somewhat intelligent setup (many references to Bee's, character conflicts that seem like they could contribute to the story overall and genuine weirdness that kept you interested). However, as the film progressed it was like M Night was at a loss of what to do and in turn you have the pile of shit your seeing now.
