Summary: One Of The Best
Review: I did not go see this movie until a month or two after it came out. I descided i had to see it because of all of the fuss that was being made about it. I thought there was no way it could live of to its hype. But it did. Haley Joel Osment was brilliant and Bruce Willis was very good too. THIS IS THE BEST MOVIE to come out since Pulp Fiction and everyone should see it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Sixth Sense
Review: When I first heard about this movie I thought, "Oh, another stupid horror movie." I was wrong, very wrong. The movie itself is very intriguing, but nothing can top Haley Joel Osmonds performance. I know what your saying, yeah, you've heard that a million times. It's the truth. He isn't good for a kid, he's good for an actor. He is one the screen for far longer than any other character and you truly beleive he is a troubled kid. Near the end of the movie, everything seemed to be wrapped up neatly in a bow and I thought, "what a stupid way to end such a good movie!" I was about to stomp out of the theater when the twist came along. What a twist it was. It was not at all obvious, yet seemed to make sense. This movie is definetly one of the best of the year.

Summary: What a surprise!
Review: I just saw this movie today in the theatre. Everyone had told me to pay attention to the movie, but didn't give any other clues as to why. I won't tell you why either...but let me just say that this movie has a surprise twist that you really don't expect and that leaves you on the edge of your seat. Haley Joel Osment is wonderful in this movie! His adult-like demeanor in an otherwise little kid makes his performance all the more real. It's plain to see why he got an Oscar nomination for this role. Bruce Willis, who steps away from his action hero roles, comes through as the quiet, but helpful child psychologist who Osment finally trusts with his "awful" secret. If you're looking for a chill or a suspenseful time...this movie is for you!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Creative, eerie script.
Review: I've heard that a young college student created this script. If so, I'll be very anxious to see what comes next from this talented person. As far as "The Sixth Sense", like most people it caught me, held me, riveted me to my seat, then surprised the heck out of me. This is one of those rare films that, after the ending credits, I wanted to immediately purchase another ticket and view it again from a different perspective...to see what I missed and why I didn't catch on as the film progressed ("The Usual Suspects" was another film that captured me in the same way).

Although several people didn't care for this movie, and thought it was overhyped and that Haley Joel Osment overacted (ala a young Ricky Schroeder in "Earthling"), I came away with the opposite reaction...and hey, I liked the "Earthling". However, I can relate to those who didn't like it. I've viewed many films that have been highly praised, but left me cold (some of these films I've viewed again after many years and was surprised to find out that they were much, much better--or worse--than what I remembered. I believe ones' sense of liking or disliking anything depends upon expectation and what mood he or she is in at the time). With that said, I thought "The Sixth Sense" did live up to its hype, and was amazed at the performance of not only Osment, but also Bruce Willis' surprising, understated performance. I also enjoyed how the movie sent honest-to-goodness chills through me, and without the use of gory "slasher" scenes that try to shock the audience with its violence.

While I don't believe this is a great film in the "classic" sense, I do think that it is the type of movie that can enlist impromptu discussion around the proverbial water cooler (ala "Fargo"). Between 1 and 10, "The Sixth Sense" deserves a solid 8, and it's a film that I am anxious to see again.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Incredible Journey
Review: I saw this movie at a local theater. Something happened there that I have never seen or experienced before. When the movie was over the entire audience filed out in almost perfect silence. You could just "hear" the wheels turning in everyone's head as they reviewed every scene for clues. This movie has found its way to my lifetime top ten list!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Get only the best on movies with Amy
Review: The sixth sense not only gave you all the requirements for a greatly done movie but it also had you at the edge of your seat the entire time. Bruce Willis plays a incredible role of a theripist but also makes you think that he was actually one. He made it so that you didn't think it was acting but real life. The gruesome gore added a great part of realistic features to the story and with a subject such as this one you are left with a question: Do you children actually see things or is it there imagination?

Summary: The Sixth Sense
Review: The pitch: 'Lets make a film about ... a boy who sees ghosts and gets therapy'

The subtext: 'Get the audience ... this time its serious'

My film of the year scraped in just at the end of 1999 on its European release; deeply lost in the hype of the 'Blair Witch Project'. The Sixth Sense would already have been a good film had it not brought the twist in the end to high art form and raised astounding questions about what you saw and what you didn't. Having gone through this process, a second viewing could never recapture the immediacy or the emotions raised at the end of the first.

So what is there left to do ? My second viewing will be about enjoying the way in which I was so beautifully led astray, perhaps seeing if there were clues I should have spotted. This is a film I will put away and show again to some unsuspecting guest.
