Un bon film à suspense, le film a très bien compris que le plus effrayant c’est l’absence de réponse et l’inconnue. Les perso sont serviable même si un peu oubliable. La scène de la plante en plastique et la best scène du film. Une fin abrupte mais dans le thème du phénomène qui arrive et qui est inexplicable. Cependant un peu dommage que le film de termine par au lala le phénomène se produit à Paris.
Synopsis
When a deadly airborne virus threatens to wipe out the northeastern United States, teacher Elliot Moore and his wife Alma flee from contaminated cities into the countryside in a fight to discover the truth. Is it terrorism, the accidental release of some toxic military bio weapon -- or something even more sinister?

Opinions on 'The Happening' are mixed, with some appreciating its vintage effect and atmospheric tension, while others criticize the thin plot and underwhelming performances, particularly from Mark Wahlberg and Zooey Deschanel. The film's mysterious and apocalyptic theme intrigued many, but the lack of a solid explanation and an abrupt ending left several viewers disappointed. Overall, it's seen as a movie with a cool concept that ultimately fails to deliver a satisfying narrative.
