Summary: Watch the previews OR ELSE.
Review: I don't know if this was intentional or not, but I could not fast-forward thru the previews on the Sixth Sense DVD. This is not an encouragement to buy the movie. Who really wants to watch the same previews every time they put the DVD into the player? I feel like I am being held hostage by marketing reps. I returned my copy as being defective.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of my favs!
Review: Little Cole (Haley Joel Osmont) dosen't know howm and he dosen't know why, but he can see dead people. And they can see him back. So when a child's psycologist (Bruce Willis) comes to try to help him, he end's up winning the child's trust and Cole tells him his secret. He sees dead people. Dr. Malcom Crowe dosen't believe him at first but when all the signs point to him telling the truth, he's not sure what to do.

This movie is one of my favriote's of all time. I was shocked at little Haley Joel Osmont's acting ability. He's so good for an 11 year old! This movie is great for thriller fans, it has an ending that no one can call! Bruce Willis portrays his charecter very well. I can't believe this didn't recieve any Acadamy awards!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I never saw it coming.
Review: When a movie can surprise a jaded moviegoer like me, it's managed a feat beyond reason.

I won't give anything away here, but check it out.

Summary: DVD version is wonderful
Review: I'm not going to review the movie, because if you are buying this I'm going to assume you've already seen the movie. I do want to comment on the extraordinary quality of the DVD. Most DVDs I've rented or bought are horrible, except for the quality of the movie. The companies just jam it on a disk. This disk is has high production values. When you go to the menu, it even has an errie visual and music. The deleted scenes are wonderful. The director is taking you into the editing process of the film. I agree with the director's decisions to delete the scenes he did, but they are also wonderful. The rules and clues, which I believe are also on the video, are also wonderful. The director seems to genuinely be a happy man who likes his fans.

A big negative is that Buena Vista makes you watch previews for other films. Fortunately, you can skip over them. It is really annoying and I'm tired of living in a culture in which culture is advertising.

Summary: A DVD Review
Review: For those who have seen the movie in the theater, but want to share it with friends or just see it again to see if the director messed up anywhere w/ the plot and surprise ending, this DVD is the way to go. There are many features packed into the DVD that make it work a purchase and not just a rental.

For those who haven't seen the movie and don't think this film is really their genre, I strongly suggest seeing the film for just one reason: Haley Joel Osment. This kid is absolutely the most incredible child actor on the scene today. He is so believable as the troubled Cole Sear, the realization that you're watching a film vanishes. Toni Collette's performance as Cole's mother is also riveting.

The DVD is feature packed, but my less than perfect rating comes from the forced commercials. You can not skip them but are forced to fast forward through them. Don't get me wrong, I love movie previews. I get to movies early so I can see them, but every single time I pop in the DVD? That's fine for a rental, but not when I have paid the purchase price for a disc, should I have to endure 15 minutes worth of trailers before getting to the menu! I had some friends over a few nights this week and every group that came over wanted to see this movie and every single time we had to sit through half a dozen movie previews.

Despite the forced commercials, this was a great film. A story of troubled spirits, in this world and the next, all looking for love and understanding. Seeing Cole's life as the misfit in school is all too reminiscent of how heartless children can be to other children, and how other children can be easily crushed, humiliated and tortured, without the help of dead folks walking around to boot.

The deleted scenes are powerful, but it's understandable why they were cut. Watching the first film by the director that he shot when he was 12 is cute and inspiring to young filmmakers or young people with any high aspirations. If a kid can make a movie that cheesy and a few years later (M. Night Shyamalan is not yet in his 30's!) come out w/ "The Sixth Sense," then a determined potato can be the first spud in space if properly determined!

For Osment's performance alone, this is a must-see. Excellent work by all involved. The "rules and clues" feature of the disc will help those who want to watch the film over and over again.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Sixth Sense-It really makes you think
Review: The first time I saw this movie on the shelf I was like no way am I seeing that! (I don't really enjoy blood) When my dad brought it home one night and put it on, it caught my attention right away... and the end was very surprising. Now, yes I did have to cover my eyes a few times but I'm soooo glad that I didn't miss it. It really makes you think.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A wonderful preformance, and an exceptional DVD
Review: This DVD is a masterpiece in the film arts. It has an exciting plot, and it is truly an original. I do not recommend this for children under the age of 12, but for anyone else, I think you would enjoy the unearthly combination of Bruce Willis, and Harley Joel Osment. The DVD version is better than just the movie. It gives you a new insight that can never be achieved from just seeing the movie. You learn not only about the movie, but also about the people behind the movie. If you do not own the movie, I highly recommend getting it for your future enjoyment. I know that every time I see it, I notice things I never did before...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Compelling and thought-provoking, but flawed.
Review: The Sixth Sense is one movie that draws you into its web, and won't let you out until you've devoted a lot of mental time and energy to it. I'm not, however, sure all the work is richly rewarded. Haley Joel Osment and Toni Collette give powerful performances, but Bruce Willis's central performance is lacking, and drags most of his scenes down with it. The movie feels like it truly needed a much stronger actor and a more compelling presence at its core, and it would really have given the movie much more emotional weight. The DVD version includes some great extras, and is a must-have for every movie enthusiast. The VHS version, missing the additional enhancements, is still worthwhile, but not essential. Regardless, The Sixth Sense is still entertaining, and worth sitting through once or twice, but probably not much more.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Why do people think this is a scary/horror movie?
Review: I do not understand why people think this is a scary/horror movie? I was all pumped up ready to go see it. I bought the DVD the day it came out, watched it, and the next thing you know, it was over! I was disappointed, not because of the movie, but everyone said that it's scary when it wasn't. This was a good boost for up and coming director, M. Night Shyamalan. A good role for diverse actor (yes, DIVERSE), Bruce Willis. It will also mark the careers of oscar nominees Haley Joel Osment and Toni Collette. Bruce plays Malcolm Crowe, a Psychologist that tries to help Cole (played by Osment), a child with visions of dead people.

The key to this movie, if you've never seen it, is not knowing the ending! If someone tells you the ending, it literally ruins it for you! I'm fortunate enough to have watched it without knowing the ending. It's pretty sad, the outcome of the movie. I felt empty harted, sad, and mad. It left me hanging. Watching it the 2nd time wasn't the same as the 1st, since you know the ending. It does give you a chance to look at the clues throughout the movie. The DVD edition is special. It has a bunch of commentaries and stuff. Overall, I thought it was a good movie but not a great one like everyone else said it was!
