Review: A really enjoyable show. Though don't do what I did and go and watch the special features - it will only spoil the movie.

Summary: Well conceived and superbly executed
Review: This is one of the best films I've seen in a long time, not in terms of depth or theme, but superb craftsmanship. "Sixth Sense" contains one of the most original and well-conceived plots. People who have not seen the film will be frightened and surprised at many turns. The acting is extremely convincing on almost everyone's part. Hollywood usually sticks some degree of crap into even its best films, but this one escaped unscathed. When you're done watching it, try to see the documentary on what techniques and symbolism they used to keep the film consistant and suspenceful. The documentary is definitely worth it.

Summary: There's a reason for it's popularity
Review: The Sixth Sense is without question one of the most significant films of the nineties. M. Night Shyamalan's direction is artful and delicate, utilizing light and Philadelphian architechture to preceed and punctuate scenes flawlessly. The performances are first rate all around. Bruce Willis, Haley Joel Osment and Toni Collette are all spectacular in very challenging roles. Shyamalan's script is simply amazing. There is character development, brilliant plot twists, frightening scenarios and intellegent dialogue throughout. The few big "jumps" in the movie are brilliantly placed and entirely unexpected. The script just works on so many levels that it demands repeat viewings. The DVD extras utilize the capabilities of DVD wonderfully; with insight, interviews, clues, and much more. Take it from me, I'm VERY picky when it comes to the DVDs I choose to OWN. I bought The Sixth Sense and have not one regret.

Summary: One of the scariest movies I've ever seen
Review: The night I saw this movie I had the worst nightmare I've ever had: I woke up in the middle of the night, screaming out loud, fell to the floor... It touched me very deeply, basically because I believe that dead people surround us, both good and bad, until the day of the Final Judgement. This is the reason why this movie is brilliant: it appeals to the average people's fears.

Summary: Spooky Intelligence
Review: A simple story with powerful impact, The Sixth Sense draws strength from the quality of the material and the excellent performances not only of the actors, but the entire cast and crew. The most successful aspect of the production is the uneasy, spooky ambiance created and maintained throughout. From the earliest scene, where we see Olivia Willams start and hurry up the wine-cellar stairs, to the unexpected, shattering close, we are treated to a panoply of seamlessly evocative image and sound. Although possible to dismiss as maudlin, the emotions expressed and explored are made real by the actors and supported synergistically by the cinematography and sound. The final effect, for those not too cynical to have written it off as mawkish, is a potent comment on the fragility and wonder of human nature.

Summary: I just don't get it!
Review: I went to see this movie the day it came out, and man I was so disappointed. I , personally , thought that the plot of the movie was terrible, and I didn't think that the kids performance was anything that the movie critics said it was. When I found out that this movie was up for best picture I was amazed that something like that could get nominated before movies like The Matrix which has revolutionized sci-fi movies. If you really feel you have to see a ghost movie with a good plot go and rent Stir of Echoes which is a much better movie. I thought that the whole movie was predictable and felt that the end could have been a little more imaginative. When I left the theater I felt it was one of the worst movies I had seen in years. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS MOVIE. There are so many other great movies out there. If you want to see a really good movie get The Green Mile. You will be impressed.

Summary: CLEVER REHASH OF PRIOR GEMS SUCCEEDS WELL
Review: I was impressed with this director's previous feature "Praying with Anger". He has studied the masters well, and has a humanity sorely needed in cinema. SENSE is compelling and spooky, but it's Osment that makes the film fly. The film leaves one with a haunting poignancy, thanks to M. Night's restrained direction, the ensemble's acting, and Newton Howard's score. Films such as SIESTA (1987), AN OCCURRENCE AT OWL CREEK BRIDGE (1959?) and JACOB'S LADDER (1986) have explored this territory with different results, and more than a smidgen has been borrowed from Roeg's DON'T LOOK NOW (1973).

Summary: Six Cents
Review: Yeh very intriguing. The psychiatrist gets shot in the first 5 minutes. Then he appears two minutes later as Bruce Willis obviously acting as the psychiatrist. Then it's really scary. Oh no! all the kitchen cabinets are open in disarray. Not unlike mine after I prepare dinner. And the cutesy kid obviously acting as a cutsey kid. Isn't he precious? Oh OH I see dead acting. And the ending -- it should have the butler who did it --it would have been more surprising. No Sense.

Summary: Biggest sellout of what could have been a good film!
Review: This movie is the most commercially motivated, ridiculoussellout of a film. I went to see it opening weekend. I thought I wouldfinally see a decent horror flick, after all the other trash I've had to suffer through in the horror genre recently. The first 1/3 was decent drama, building the story. The second 1/3 was pretty good suspense. The last 1/3 destroyed the whole film. The whole concept of the boy essentially becoming ghost psychiatrist was beyond stupid, and removed any previous aspects of horror. Having ghosts appear to say "Tell dad that mom put draino in my soup", and the like, was just dumb. Had it all been evil intentions, the movie would have been much more effective, in a positive horror movie way. I can't wait 'til the sequel, when they run even shorter on ideas and have ghosts appear saying "Tell Aunt Edna that the car keys she lost in 1984 are behind the clothes dryer". The awful "Grandma visits me and tells me she's proud of you everyday", was so motivated to mass appeal that I was sick. Always have to have that little irritating "heart warming" touch, don't they. Watching disfigured ghosts walk away from the boy after their "session" made this movie look more like a bad comedy! The final scene was completely unforgivable. I was amazed at what a huge hit this garbage became, but considering what movies do become hits I should have expected it. Simply AWFUL! The horror movie has died a slow, painful death over the past decade. This movie is the perfect example.

Summary: STAR TREATMENT FROM CAST AND CREW
Review: THE SIXTH SENSE(with The Matrix)is such a film that it makes u almost speechless. U feel tricked, manipulated and utterly on the edge because of the greatness of the work. The twists, the characters, the ACTORS(especially Haley Joel Osment) and the shivering finale makes this a grand finale for the closing of the 20th Century(with The Matrix of course).
