Rating: Summary: Terrifying but moving too Review: I don't recall seeing The Sixth Sense on any top ten lists from critics when it deserved to be. I thought Bruce Willis was at his best, but his performance doesn't get noted by most people because the kid is so good. Still, the little twist wouldn't have worked without him. He deserved a Best Actor nomination. Now, to tell you a little bit about the movie, the kid can see dead people and it's scary as hell, and it's a lot more scarier than that camera shaking, motion sickness movie The Blair Witch Project.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Movie!! Just Amazing...... Review: This movie is great! Halley Joel Osment is unbelievable.
Rating: Summary: One of the most touching experiences ever! Review: What can be said about this film thats hasn't allready been pointed out, well I have something to say that most haven't said, and that is that this film is more touching than suspensful, well in my opinion.It's a good film to watch for those who are doubtful about the afterlife, who knows this might change your mind, and quite a sad movie this is, especially if you have lost someone that you really love, it will definately touch you. But yes it can be suspensful at some times but when the film starts to reach its climax it gets more emotional, the ending is very sad itself, it as if when your done watching the movie that it takes something away from you, and puts something back in, you will just be in your seat thinking about what you just saw, and it will affect your life, it should... There are many great things about this movie, but you know what just get it, don't just watch it, it's that powerful!
Rating: Summary: Touching, thought-provoking Review: All through the movie, I felt that I was missing something... I realized in the end what was that. In The Sixth Sense, the director gently probes and implies.. There is no violence or special effects. The film is moving, from the loneliness of the wife, the sense of duty of the doctor, to the uncanny behaviour of the boy. This film may not appeal to the masses, but it is immensely thought provoking, and must deserve special mention.
Rating: Summary: Should be watched over and over Review: Not many films can really stand up to repeated viewings that will always surprise the viewer with new insites into the piece. "Sixthe Sense" is the exception to this rule.Each viewing reveals a new facet of the story, deepens the appreciation of the writing and, above all, amazes with the subtle and intricate performances of all the actors. Of course the first time the big surprise is the ending (although I must admit I had picked the actual ending as one of three early on, BUT each subsequent viewing has brought more and better surprises). Bruce Willis (until this film one of my least favorite actors but after this and "Whole Nine Yards" a favorite)creates a wonderful character with not one false note - deep, meaningful and brillant. Haley Joel Osment overwhelms you the first time you see the film and with each subsequent viewing your appreciation for his work grows more intense. No other child actor has ever come close to his accomplishments and few adults have either. This wasn't the work of the director, it comes from within this remarkable person. Even the story gets better with subsequent viewings. Little things that might have been missed previously will hit you and expand the pleasure. This is an excellent script, beautifully produced. If you've only seen this film once, you are depriving yourself of the continual pleasure of revisiting a masterpiece.
Rating: Summary: What's the big deal? Review: I still don't know what all the fuss was about. Sure, the effects were cool (what little there were) and the acting good. But this was one s-l-o-w moving flick (although not nearly as bad as Unbreakable.) If you like ghost movies, movies by directors that are way too full of themselves, or good old Bruce, then get it. It's NOT one that you'll watch over and over again.
Rating: Summary: There's a secret, ssshh! Review: Pretty good, hats off to mr B.W., he's just about renewed hiwself from moonlighting. I figured out the secret, but it is kind of obvious in hindsite. P.S. Who is Kizer Souxsie
Rating: Summary: overrated Review: this movie is just way overrated and i mean WAY overrated. nothing happens until near the end. most of the movie is just dull. is this movie scary? NO. even THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT was scarier than this--and that movie was horrible.if i could give this zero stars i would.
Rating: Summary: The Sixth Sense (DVD)... Review: This movie has absolutely everything! A great writer/director, great actors, a great plot, and a brilliance not found in many movies. This movie, and its actors, have won and been nominated for numerous awards (including Oscar's), and they deserved to win every one of them. Mystery, suspense, thrill, drama, excitement, intrigue, horror... this movie is FILLED with all of them! Explore the paranormal as you learn that gifts are not always pleasant from actor Haley Joel Osment, who delivered a performance that can only be described as stunning. Watch this movie again and again, every time you watch you'll learn something new (especially between the first and second time)... This is an enjoyable movie, that truly has seeped into culture. A must see for everyone!
Rating: Summary: doubters be gone Review: It seems to me that all those who did not like this film just want to show that they were to smart to be fooled by the ending. I am rarely fooled by such film plots but this one got me and a good film became a great film. The subtle hints left throuhout are quickly recalled once you are let in on the secret, but that does not mean you knew all along. I am sick of all the "smart people" who say this is a bad film just because they claim to have figured it out. Even without the ending this was still a touching story between the two main characters and I enjoyed it completely.
