Cast and Crew of Signs

Signs

Signs, directed by M. Night Shyamalan and released in 2002, is a supernatural thriller starring Mel Gibson as Graham Hess and Joaquin Phoenix as Merrill Hess. Upon its release, the film received generally positive reviews for its suspenseful atmosphere and emotional depth, though some critics found its plot less original compared to Shyamalan's earlier works. It performed well at the box office and was praised for its blend of family drama and sci-fi horror elements. Over time, Signs has maintained a dedicated fanbase and is often appreciated for its storytelling and mood, though some viewers now see elements of it as dated given the evolution of the genre. Rather than being a full-blown cult classic or an underrated gem, Signs is best described as a well-regarded thriller that holds nostalgic value for many and continues to be enjoyed as a significant early 2000s sci-fi horror film.
