I'm... indifferent!

There are a few of his films that I still need to check out, but he kind of turned himself into to butt of his own joke by being coined as the master of the twist ending... to the extent where you are watching his films in a purely analytical sense to try and guess the inevitable twist which you know is coming, and which will subsequently void said film from any worthwhile future viewings. Add to that some clunky scripts and poor production values *cough* The Happening and his films (The Sixth Sense possibly excluded - although I'm personally not keen on it) tend to lie in that middle tier under the radar zone where the audience tends to discover them via channel hopping.

That said I did quite enjoy The Village, although it didn't hold up nearly as well on a re-watch; see above...
