Rating: Summary: Disney forcing you to watch previews. Don't Buy! Review: This is a great movie, one of the best. But you shouldn't buy this or any other Disney product. Boycott them.When you put this DVD in, you have to watch 8 mins of previews. You can't skip them. You can't access the menu. You can't even stop your player. You have no choice but to watch the previews. If Disney isn't stopped, they will do this to other DVDs. And other companies will do it too. It has to be stopped. Boycott Disney!
Rating: Summary: The Sixth Shaft Review: I loved this movie, but, Haley Joel Osment was clearly robbed at the Oscars. Bruce Willis gave his best performance since the original 'Die Hard.'
Rating: Summary: I will not pay for this Review: After 7 minutes of being forced to watch movie trailers on the DVD version, I took it back. I will neither pay or keep any DVD like this one.
Rating: Summary: i think this is a great movie. Review: first of all, anyone with any common sense knows not to watch the extra stuff before you see the movie. therefore, it should go without saying that the added material does give away the twist. the ending does lose its surprise after the first viewing, but you notice so much more each time you see it afterwards. i went to see it at the theatre opening weekend, and i am glad i didn't wait. too many people gave away the ending, and i'll admit that it was hard not to tell people the end when i was telling about it. Haley Joel Osment is awesome; i hope he continues to find scripts that are a challenge for him. there are a lot of really neat camera angles and such that you wouldn'y normally think about using. if you are looking for a blood and guts horror movie, don't see this, because that's not what it is. rather, it deals more with psychological issues and pulls in your emotions, rather than your fear. i too am somwhat annoyed that the DVD makes you watch the previews, but i think i can deal with it. it certainly isn't going to stop me from watching it again. like Thomas Crown Affair, the ending does surpirse you, and is a big part of the movie's appeal, but t shouldn't keep you from multiple viewings. overall, i think this is a great movie, and it has been added to my family's list of favorites.
Rating: Summary: Doesn't your fast forward work? Review: Am I missing something? Why are so many people complaining about the "trailers" at the beginning of the DVD? A. some people like trailers so for some it's an welcome bonus B. DVD remotes come with a fast forward and some (mine does) a super fast forward. Hit this button and you're past this material in less time than an average TV commercial. So no one is "forcing" you to watch this stuff. Me I never even saw them because I just fast forwarded and assumed everyone else in world would do the same thing instead of whining about it. Oh yes, this movie is the opposite of many movies you buy. Ever buy a movie because you absoloutely loved it loved it and played it over and over again for several days/weeks and eventually got bored with it? The Sixth Sense is just the opposite. The first time you watch it you think man that was okay/better than I expected. You watch it again knowing the ending and say wow that was really cool how that was set up. You watch it again and say wow that scene really fits, You watch it again and say wow here's a "hidden message". The only other recent movie that I can think of that is like this is LA Confidential in that it is better on each subsequent viewing.
Rating: Summary: The Sixth Sense Review: This was an excellent movie and it should have won the academy award for best picture. The young star, "Cole" should have won best actor. I don't care how old he is. He was excellent!
Rating: Summary: "Anna...I'm in love.....in love with you I am" Review: What can I say people, this movie is a masterpiece. It is a quality production and I cannot believe that this movie didn't take out any awards @ the Oscars. Buy it on DVD and watch it with all your friends that haven't watched it and just take in their reaction to every single scene. Such a great script and direction....WELL DONE TO ALL INVOLVED. A must have in your DVD collection, infact just leave the disk in the player!
Rating: Summary: There are "Best Pictures" and then there is the truth... Review: To put it simply, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences missed the true best picture of 1999. Once again they let the genre of the picture rule what they veiwed as a movie "good enough" to win their honors. It's happened before. "Star Wars (Episode 4)" and "The Exorcist" were both dissed in the same way. As bad as those decisions were, the failure to recognize "The Sixth Sense" is far worse. This is possibly the best written, acted, and produced movie to come out in 20 years. Because it was a "horror" movie it was deemed not worthy of the Academy's honors...More's the pity.
Rating: Summary: Good Movie, Poor DVD Production Review: Title says it all, when will these studios and directors figure it out? Just think how exciting will be a year from now when you want to watch this DVD and you get to see..."now in theaters...' and previews for the stupid movies they were hyping at the beginning! For me...I won't purchase any more movies from this studio or director.
Rating: Summary: EXCELENT Review: If you are looking for good suspence movie... this is a great election.
