Description:
Apartment building superintendent Cleveland Heep (Giamatti) rescues what he thinks is a young woman from the pool he maintains. When he discovers that she is actually a character from a bedtime story who is trying to make the journey back to her home, he works with his tenants to protect his new friend from the creatures that are determined to keep her in our world.
Amazon.com:
Or, if you prefer, I See Wet People. M. Night Shyamalan's attempt at a newfangled mythology--about a depressed apartment superintendent (Paul Giamatti) who discovers a sea-nymph (Bryce Dallas Howard) who may hold the key to humanity's hopeful future--is intriguing enough to capture the imaginations of children and adults who haven't lost sight of their innocent sense of wonder. Cynics, on the other hand, will likely scoff at Shyamalan's awkward fantasy, which includes one victim--a film critic--widely interpreted as Shyamalan's revenge against reviewers who panned The Village. Shyamalan originally improvised this melancholy fantasy as a bedtime story for his children; unfortunately, it still feels mostly half-baked and ultimately ineffective due to a number of plot holes and inconsistencies that a writer as talented as Shyamalan should've been able to avoid. For those wishing to learn more about the film's troubled history, and Shyamalan's petulant split from Disney studios, The Man Who Heard Voices: Or, How M. Night Shyamalan Risked His Career on a Fairy Tale is an interesting read. --Jeff Shannon

M Night lost my respect with "The Happening", and I hope it's temporary, as I prefer films with weight. His films, conceptually, always seem to want to convey a deeper message, meaning or metaphor. This is welcomed for me, but this film, Lady in the Water was a mess. The characters seemed to be created like caricatures, and for me, could not be taken seriously. The film felt 10 hrs long, and the entire film was a garbled mess for me. PQ and AQ clear, but not the best. Technically-4/5. Film 1/5. Ugh.

There are a lot of split reviews about this movie. Personally, I love it because I love fantasy stories and the subtlety of this movie is ingenious (as is Paul Giamati's performence). The thing is, you HAVE to be able to buy into the fairy tale in order to appreciate the movie. It is a fairy tale bedtime story; it is not meant to be accurate as though it could really happen. Some people have pointed out things about the fairy tale that could not have happened in real life. That would be like pointing ... Read More

Finally a M. Night Shyamalan movie that I really loved. His movies are always beyond normal reasoning, always full of fear and the unnatural. Lady in the Water was about love and deep inner understanding, and finding in ourselves, something that has long been forgotten in human nature. This was a movie of hope, and the forthcoming of leadership that will bring the world into hope. I truly enjoyed this movie which was full of characters and the longest in scene with the director playing a major part.

I've enjoyed most of Night Shyamalan's movies and this is no exception. The movie has feeling and hope which you don't get in many movies these days.
Paul Giamatti does an above average job, as he often does. Playing the role of someone just trying to get by and do the right thing, even under extreme diversity, seems to be his cup of tea.
