Summary: Seeing dead people
Review: The movie The Sixth Sense is the best movie I've ever seen! The special efects are great, and the plot is of undying interest. Sure to please anyone with a love for the unreal or unbelieved. It's so scarry, you'll be screaming at the top of your lungs!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Never really goes anywhere....
Review: Okay there's the twist. One of the movie's big selling points, but apart from that and the young boy's performance, there really isn't that much to shout about. "The sixth sense" has potential to make you jump, it has a couple of flashes of excitment and is well directed. Unfortunately, the settings for the film are way too bland and anonymous. My biggest complaint is the fact that the movie never takes off, the beginning is promising but I was always expecting something more to happen, it just seems to spend two hours in first gear and never anymore than that. The acting and the "twist" is its saving grace.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: SLEEP

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: So overated and boring it's pathetic!
Review: The ending is a surprise but not a revelation if that makes any sense. The only thing good about the film is the performance of the little boy. The rest is just plain boring. I would've walked out if I had been by myself.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: sixth sence
Review: when I saw sixth sence I was on the end of my chair waiting for the next spirit the little boy was going to see, I never imagined there would be a film with an ending that should be, as all other films eat you up at the end not showing you what you really thought was going to happen, even though I didn't expect the ending to end so spectacular as that, and has had me thinking about the film for weeks, and I can't wait to see it again as you won't when you watch it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Easily, one of the best movies of all time
Review: The outstanding performances contribute to the disturbing atmosphere. The best child actor ever. He was robbed at the Golden Globes.

Visuals: There aren't too many special effects. But that's no the type of movie this is. Cinematography is splendidly done.

Overall Visuals grade: A-

Screenplay/Story: One of the best horror stories in years. The only thing more suprinsing than the first 45 mintues of the movie, are the last 5!

Overall Screenplay/Story Grade: A+

Acting: Some of the best acting you could ever seen on the big screen. Haley Joel Osment's acting makes you shiver AND scream at the same time.

Overall acting grade: A+

Sound/Film Editing: The ghost sound effets make you jump and the musical score is creepy and eerily presented. The film editing is flawless.

Overall Sound/Film Editing Grade: A+

Comments: My personal favortie. You may think otherwise, but I still think you'll like. WAY too scary for kids under 12.

MPAA RATING: PG-13 for intense thematic material and violent images. The thematic material is many death related elements. The violent images include people hanging from a cieling and one shooting. Also, the back of a ghost kid's head is rather bloody.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely incredible - both chilling and moving.
Review: I've never seen a movie like this. 'The Sixth Sense' doesn't fit into any particular genre - it's dramatic, thrilling, cathartic, scary, and heartbreaking... all in one. Don't watch this expecting a "horror" film; the ghosts don't make the movie what it is, rather, the script and acting do. Bruce Willis is refreshingly good as a child psychologist, and Haley Joel Osment's performance as Cole, a boy who sees ghosts, is nothing short of brilliant. Much of the emotional resonance of the movie comes through his pained expressions and whispered words.

I went to the theatre expecting a popcorn flick, but instead had an incredible cinematic experience. Don't miss this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "I see dead people."
Review: A line which will live in infamy. Though the storyline is pretty hard to follow, the first time is always the best. Both actors are extremely believable and well placed. I would recommend this movie to viewers who like intense, but not too intense suspence and who can catch onto movies well. After seeing this, you will want to see it over and over and over and over... again. Believe me. It's that good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Encore!
Review: I wish I could give this movie 10 stars! This movie affected me in a way that not many movies have. It has a real 'classic' quality to it. Unforgettable. I never knew Willis could act so well. The ending hit me like a bullet through the heart - absolutely mind blowing! I walked out of the cinema on air! Emotional, and Brilliant. One of the greats!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Film of 1999
Review: Of all the films I've seen this year (and as a film student, I saw a lot), this was the only one that employed solid script-writing throughout. There's so much more to The Sixth Sense than just the surprise ending - not that it wasn't effective - including the excellent characterizations and clever subplots. I was drawn into the story and forgot all about my own suspicians going into the film until the very end. Haley isn't just good for a kid; he demonstrated an ease with acting that some adults have yet to master. However, Toni Collette's performance was especially admirable and I wish her role received more attention - it's refreshing to see a more realistic and flattering representation of the mother figure (much unlike that in some of the year's more overrated fluff disguised as intelligent, adult fair). I'd love to see her up for Best Supporting Actress at the Oscars. I also feel sorry for those who expected a conventional horror film and were disappointed to see an indepth psychological drama instead. This movie may not be for everyone, but to me, it was modern filmmaking at its best and most effective.
