Rating: Summary: M. Night Shyamalan is a genius Review: This film is absolutley amazing! It came basically out of nowhere to become one of the most honored films of the year. The acting is remakable. Haley Joel Osment is astounding as the child (named Cole) who "sees dead people." He is more convincing than most characters in films this year. Toni Collette also does an above average job as Cole's mother, acting as anyone would in the situation she was in. Willis too did an amazing job playing the pyschiatrist who attempts to help cole through the problem.Shyalaman does an amazing job creating twists and turns in his screenplay, thousands of tiny details that you never notice until after the movie is over. The ending is so smart and tricky that it gave me chills. Shyalaman directs his actors and actresses so well that sometimes we forget that this is only a film; the characters seem real. A must see for anyone, a must have for most. See this movie as soon as you can!
Rating: Summary: The Sixth Sense Review: Excellent direction and excellent performances, makes this one of the best movies of the year. My choice to win best picture.
Rating: Summary: Glad the missus took me.... Review: Well obviously not a Bruce film,but shows his burgeoning talent.The film shows to deceive to all but the most avid Doctor Who fan who could pick up on "the Twist" or am I thinking of Jacobs Ladder? What can I say but great acting to the little boy who played "the star" (please dont become Macaulay culkin part II) and keep it up Bruce - Uzis arent the be all and end all!
Rating: Summary: a different approach... Review: this film was great, not only did it prove that shyalaman knows how to make a quality picture, but it also goes to show that bruce willis is able to play parts other than just being an action hero...he's trying to get inside of this child's head and see what the problem is....why this child is seeing these horrific images constantly. and what it evolves into becomes something much greater than ever imagined.
Rating: Summary: Don't believe the hype! Review: There are enough clues throughout the movie to dramatically reduce your surprise at the ending. Although I have to admit that I was caught off guard but not necessarily surprised. But even with the 'surprise' ending, was it worth sitting through the seemingly interminable 2 1/2 hours or whatever it was just for that. Definitely not. Are parts of the film scary... occasionally yes. But by and large the film is incredibly painful to watch. I couldn't wait for it to be over because it moved so slow and I was so bored and not sufficiently frightened. And forget about Bruce Willis' performance being so great. Ben Stein could have done it just as well. Granted Bruce Willis, the man, is extremely cool. Bruce Willis the actor, excepting Die Hard, is mediocre at best. I personally would have walked out if I had seen the movie alone.
Rating: Summary: An Amazing Performance By Haley Joel Osment Review: The Sixth Sense was definitely one of the most satisfying movies of this past year. Nominated for several Academy Awards this year including the coveted Best Picture as well as Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Original Score, Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress. All the performances are impressive in the movie, especially that of 11-year old Haley Joel Osment who is the youngest Oscar-nominee this year. I have to admit, this kid has got talent. More talent than a lot of other actors 4 times his age. Bruce Willis may have been the so-called star of this movie but the kid definitely stole the show. I was very pleased to see that Toni Collette (Muriel's Wedding) was nominated in this year's Oscar race. She was completed ignored at the Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Awards. Her final scene in the movie is one of my favourites. Osment talks to his mother, played by Collette about her deceased Grandmother. He assures that she continues to watch over her and that she has made her very proud as her grand-daughter. The breakdown scene in the car was so beautifully acted. As for the movie's Oscar chances come this March, l definitely know that it won't win Best Picture, but it does have a good chance at snagging Best Original Screenplay and l don't care what anyone says, l'm rooting for the kid to win on Oscar night. See this movie if you haven't already. The surprising plot twists and amazing performances are all worth it.
Rating: Summary: It's about time! Review: I haven't seen a movie this entertaining for a long time....and with an ending that surprised even me. (I usually figure the endings out early) My wife hasn't seen it yet. I can't wait for the video release.
Rating: Summary: Brilliant movie! Review: In our country (The Netherlands), The Sixth Sense can still be seen in the cinema. I saw this great, surprising film one month ago, and even now I can't stop thinking about it. Mostly, I'am very critical about Hollywood productions, but I want to give my compliments to the cast & producers of this brilliant movie. When I compare this film to European ones, I can say that The Sixth Sense can be called an American movie with an European character. I'm very enthousiastic about the photograpy & scene-trasitions in the movie. But also the raising excitement through both music and perfect acting are giving this film all the aspects to be very original & succeful.. I think The Sixth Sense earns the right to be called a masterpiece! Everyone who haven't seen the movie at this time, I'll just say one thing: See it!, you won't be sorry! (I can't wait for the European DVD release myself).
Rating: Summary: Horror! Review: i normally donot see horror movies. till the time, the movie started, i did not know that the movie was all about ghosts. the cute little boy is torn apart because of the deadly sense. This, is unbelievable to us and even for the Psychologist who is attending to him. The ending, proves us wrong. It is very well portrayed and enacted too. The subtle horror is indeed good. iam waiting for the weekend to see the movie again!
Rating: Summary: excellant Review: the movie was excellant and the action was superb..i have never seen a movie like this and i hope this will get oscar surely...the direction was gorgeous and i am proud to say that he was from my country...
