Skip it. M. Night Shyamalan's waterlogged fantasy is a slog that even he has disowned, and the critical consensus (25% on RT, 5.5 on IMDb) isn't wrong—this one's neither engaging enough as drama nor inventive enough as fantasy to justify your time. There are far better ways to spend your evening.

Plot

Apartment building superintendent Cleveland Heep 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.
