The Sixth Sense

Summary: Previews ruin a collector's edition...
Review: I am very, very disappointed in this DVD. It says right on the front cover that it is a "collector's edition" DVD -- however, when playing the DVD the first thing one sees is a preview for Mission to Mars, followed by previews for 4 other movies. A film this good should not be tainted by movie previews. Those belong in the VHS version.

However, I must still give 5 stars to the movie because of the interesting extras on the DVD. The deleted scenes are great, and the director says a few words about each extra feature on the DVD (including the deleted scenes) which is a nice feature.

No director's commentary, which I thought would have been a nice extra, but he talks about a lot of the interesting aspects of the film in the other extras (ie, the use of the color red).

Still a good buy, but very sad that the producers of the DVD decided to put those previews in. They ruin what could have been the best movie in my collection.

Summary: Great movie, bad DVD presentation.
Review: I loved the movie in the theaters, so I was pretty happy to get it on DVD. Unfortunately, when I started playing the disc, it jumped straight to previews. Lots of previews. Even worse, some genius thought it would be a good idea to disable the stop, pause, and menu buttons. This means that you can't jump straight to the menu -- you have to keep hitting fast forward until all the previews are done. I hate this; I'd really rather not have to see a "Mission To Mars" preview every single time I put in my "Sixth Sense" disc. I could sort of understand this if it was a rental edition, but it's not. I really have no idea why anyone thought that doing this was a good idea.

It's a shame, because the disc is otherwise pretty nice. There are a bunch of extra features -- trailers, deleted scenes, an extended ending, a little documentary, and so forth. Unfortunately, the preview problem is annoying enough that I'm thinking of returning the disc.

Summary: Great movie, but how many times can you watch it?
Review: I don't think many people would argue this was a great movie, but like any movie with a suprise ending, how many times can you watch it?

Summary: Intriguing
Review: Not only does this movie hold your interest it has a twist at the end that will keep you talking about it for days. I don't like Bruce Willis but he was excellent in this movie!

Summary: THANKYOU, THANKYOU, THANKYOU.
Review: Having just finished watching the movie I feel compelled to write this review, a meagre attempt to give something back to the makers of the movie. This is one of the hardest reviews i've ever tried to write, words do not seem capable of conveying the ingenuity and gorgeousness of the Sixth Sense. I'm not going to talk about the plot, to analyse it would give away too much, so this leaves only my feelings about the fim to convince you.

I still feel somewhat astounded by its intelligence and mesmerised by its beauty. I know such descriptive words are not those which one would normally associate with a film of its kind but that's what makes the Sixth Sense different. The plot is what binds it to the supernatural/suspense genre, but the actual story makes it so much more. Take Poltergiest, Ghost and Good Will Hunting, these are three very different films, each a classic in their own right. If you were to mix these you might end up with something close to the Sixth Sense: an original supernatural thriller, with excellent character development and relationships which is not too big to have an element of romance. Brilliant displays by Bruce Willis and Haley Joel Osment gives the film its edge.

Technically the Dvd is also faultless. Picture and sound quality are excellent and there are two pages of special features which have thoughtfully been put together.

I can offer you no more than my assurance that this is a film that I believe will appeal to all. It is an emotional journey, which will leave a lump in the throat and a chill in the spine of even the most hardened of persons... if not, check your pulse!

Summary: Sixth Sense is Amazing!
Review: I recently saw The Sixth Sense and I would have to say I was amazed by the edge of your seat type thriller. I thought Hayley should have won an Oscar for his performance. I loved it! Bruce was good too and he deserves more than he gets for his acting ability.

Summary: pretty good
Review: yes the ending was good, nice suprise to give the film a twist, but the movie itself was good too. i saw some reviews where people complained about the fact that the movie was boring. well when the kid's walking back to his room and sees a young davy jones impersonator who offers to show him where his dad keeps the gun, i bet those plantiffs were snoring right? please folks this movies stuffed with not only stuff that will make you jump but things that will make you think. great performance by donnie wahlberg as vincent gray by the way.

Summary: loved it
Review: first of all, i loved this movie it was truly different from any other horror suspense movie i've seen in the last few years. One thing did bother me though, and if anyone can explain this to me, please e-mail me at [e-mail] , but how did bruce willis get into the cole's house if he was already dead? After all, cole's mother couldn't have let him in the house, and i'm sure the door was locked. a point to ponder....otherwise, i especially loved the scene where cole tells his mom about grandma being proud of her everyday....a must see and get on dvd or vhs.
