Summary: Try your local library, buddy
Review: I'd like this movie to be a little scarier, a little faster, and not act like no one in the world has ever seen dead people before this kid. The (alleged) ability of some people to see the dead is well-known enough that there are numberous scientific, new-age-y, theological, psychological, and even layman's books devoted to the subject--but this film acts like none of that exists. I know movies aren't reality, etc., but it wouldn't have taken more than a few minutes for the Bruce Willis character to stop at the library and pick up a book or two on the subject (and no, I'm not a lobbyist for the National Library Association :).

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: 20 minutes of movie trailers!
Review: what's the deal with te half hour of studio promos at the beginning of this DVD? You can't even go into the menu and skip through it, you have to either agonize through it or fast forward!...I sincerely hope Disney does not create a trend by doing this.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Don't miss this one!
Review: This is not a scary movie, this is one of the most life-affirming movies I've seen. This is an all-time favorite for me. The acting is superb, the plot is imaginative and suspensful, and the ending gives me chills every single time I watch it. I loved having the extras on the dvd version, and I especially liked it that director Shyamalan chose the ending that he did. [Haley Joel Osment's performance was stunning. Why Michael Caine, wonderul as he is, won the best supporting actor Oscar award for "Cider House Rules" is simply beyond me.]

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent film, stupid studio
Review: I loved this film. I just saw it for the first time last night on DVD (got it for my birthday). However, the stupid DVD forces you to watch, or at least skip, through 5 to 7 trailers before you can select the menu. Anyone remember all the stuff with the Tarzan DVD from Disney? Same thing here. I want to complain, but I don't know who to complain to. Common sense should tell anyone, even brain-dead marketing execs, that putting trailers on the DVD is okay...making me watch them in the beginning, bad. I buy DVDs for the flexibility and power of the format, not to have marketing for horrible films (from dusk till dawn 3) shoved down my throat.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the story of last moment
Review: the film was great, it ties you into your seat, you like every moment of it. In fact I wasn't sure that i understood the film and the last minutes of it, made me sure that it wasn't what I thought but it made me to go back in memory and play the film again and again. It was great my whole family liked it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Deserves Six Stars
Review: The Sixth Sense, a sensational thriller about a young boy's communication with the dead, was a very well written film. Haley Joel Osment was in a good role; perhaps it was one that he enjoyed. I could tell from the first time he said,"I see dead people" on the theatrical trailer, that he was one of those actors who really get into their character. Bruce Willis' role was surprising to me! I mean, I expect to see that guy blowing up stuff and shooting the bad guys. But, he played the role of the well-reviewed child psychologist. He has played the role before, in a movie called "Mercury Rising", except in this film, I think he was a bodyguard of some sort. That movie is a mere spec compared to this masterpiece. Osment and Willis had some sort of connection when the movie was filmed. I mean they really ACTED. It was almost like they were father and son. As I said in my title, this review deserves 6 stars. It was a very good film, and deserves more than a Golden Globe award.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Surprisingly Riveting, Annoying DVD
Review: I saw this picture on the big screen three times because I was determined to take several people to see it. Since the DVD release, I've watched it two more times. I'm still not bored with it. Brilliantly paced and directed. The music is phenomenal- I'm a huge fan of James Newton Howard. Bruce Willis is understated and sedate- perfect for the atmosphere of the film. Haley Joel Osment is the most astounding young actor I've ever seen. Amazing in concept and delivery and the DVD allows you to view deleted, but very moving scenes. Most annoying is the inability to skip the weak and useless previews.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE SIXTH SENSE
Review: ONE THE GREATEST MOVIES OF ALL TIME

THIS MOVIE IS ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES I'VE SEEN. FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY. THE ACTING AND DIRECTING IS AT IT'S BEST. THE STORY LINE GIVES CLUES ALL THE WAY FOR WHAT TO EXPECT AT THE END, BUT IT IS LIKE AN ILLUSION, IT JUST GOES OVER OUR HEAD. GREAT MOVIE. A MUST SEE.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It's OK, but not great
Review: The Sixth Sence is a good movie, but despite what anyone says, it's not a great movie. The ending should be obvious within the first ten minutes, and if you can't figure it out, ask someone around you what they think and probably they know. The acting is good, the story line better than most, but it just didn't live up to the hype.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the very best
Review: Many times I walk out of the theater thinking "I should have waited for the DVD". I wish I saw this one in the theater, I would have rented it again anyway. The story was tensed and very emotional. But the real impact was that after the movie, I kept thinking about it. It was well written and directed. I also enjoyed the Bonus materials, I wish there was more behind the scenes shots. The rules and clues made me want to watch it all over again. Make sure you don't see this part until you watch the movie.

Other things don't bother me. With the DVD, you can just skip the previews or whatever.
