| St. Paul Pioneer PressChris Hewitt (St. Paul)In the end, Signs is all about faith: the characters' faith in each other, Shyamalan's faith in us and, best of all, our faith in the movies' ability to make us believe in the impossible. |

| Mark Reviews MoviesMark DujsikSignals the transformation of a promising young filmmaker into a brilliant young filmmaker. |
| Houston Community NewspapersGary BrownShyamalan's masterful direction makes the film succeed. What scares us out of our seats is not what we see or hear, but what we think we might see and hear. |
