JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

lawbuntz No one will read this I know cuz there are so many comments...that fact alone shows that this fake documentary has fulfilled its purpose. I enjoyed the show because it was creative and seemingly put sooo much effort into something so meaningless. It's cool to see how people waste their time and money. I really wish the acting was more edgy../.more real instead of being typical drama stuff. I liked the interlacing of the real street interviews and the fake. To me, it was amazing that Johnny Depp and Adrian Brody played along...but I guess Night asked them to do him a favor...and I would do that for my buddy too. That should show that Night was the mastermind behind this. I really wish the average rating for this show would go up - it deserves at least a 5/10 for effort..at least

teasz5 I guess I am a little slow on the uptake as prior to this "expose" I was without a clue as to who Mr. Shyamalan was. However, being a sci-fi channel fan I, of course, sat down to watch it.Hmmmmmmm.....It was interesting (some parts), bizarre (more parts), semi-believable (considering our apparently national pass-time of tearing apart those that are talented). This, of course, was before I realized it was more of a spoof and a "teaser" for the upcoming movie "The Village" rather than a legitimate "deep dig" they proclaimed it to be.Before, I realized the true intent, my ire at the "shock-u-mentary" was the fact that they appeared to be accusing him of taking information from his own life and working them into "horror-type" movies.Ummmm...standard procedure for most writers is to "write what you know". The fact that Mr. Shyamalan can expand on these experiences and make excellent movies is something to be in awe of. (Yes, since I saw this and realized who he was, I sat down and watched all his movies.)One only has to watch his movies to grasp the genius of this man as a writer, cinematographer and producer. (I love Steve King's books, but have yet to see one of "his" movies that has not left me wishing I hadn't spent the money.) IF Mr. Shyamalan truly is as "quirky" as this footage suggests, then I wish everyone in Hollywood and/or involved in movie production were that way. Then perhaps we would not be bombarded by some of the senseless drivel that poses for "art" today.

xchar (This is a SPOILER only if you haven't read anything about the film.) Okay, so it didn't deliver what was promised (a real buried secret) and it was an hour too long. But director Nathaniel Kahn has a masterful command of the medium and the format. I didn't know beforehand whether it was factual or not, so I kept looking for "tells": little flaws that would reveal that it was scripted (for example, an actor moving their lips while another actor was speaking their lines). I never spotted such a lapse. Everyone was totally convincing--including Kahn and Shyamalan themselves. The geeky computer kid was great! Shyamalan's low-key reaction to the "invasion of privacy" was done just right. The casual introduction of key elements--crows, black cars on a country road--was handled nicely. I hope this documentary is included on the DVD--I want to watch it carefully again!

Roodog When first seeing the add for "Buried Secret" on Sci-Fi, I did believe that it might be an unauthorized piece. Having seen his three last films, however, and knowing of this affinity for clever twists, I did suspect that this might be more of a making-of "The Village."The first scene of "Buried Secret" put both of these to rest for me. This film is part mockumentary, part infomercial for "The Village", and a dash of "Blair Witch Project." I won't give any details away, but I have to wonder whether a piece like this wouldn't be more appropriate for the die-hard "M" fan to watch as DVD extra content released with "The Village."
