This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

How did he last so long being ignored by his wife?Why does nobody get freaked out by the moving chair in the restaurant?How did he book an appointment with a kid? Did his Mum ring a dead mans phone? Did the kid arrange the appointment? Does he not need to confirm with his guardian he can talk to their kid? How did he get in the house? Did he knock on the door and not get acknowledged by the mother but still decided to walk in? Can he walk through walls? Does he not think it's weird he can walk through walls?Hmmm.

4/4 ESSENTIALIf you've talked with anyone who's anyone about The Sixth Sense, chances are you've heard "I see dead people". I encourage people who have not viewed he film to walk in to their first viewing as blind as possible, because the less you know the better. If you're farmiliar with M. Night Shyamalan's work, you'll know that he's famous for a twist at the end of his movies. This is not only Shyamalan's best twist, but one of my favorite thrillers, and a modern classic.The Sixth Sense is not a movie that is characterized by constant jump-scares and over-the-top violence, but instead it is a very smart, well preformed, and well directed movie. It slowly reveals new information over the course of the movie, and the suspense is waiting for the next answer. However, the two main characters (played by Haley Joel Osment and Bruce Willis) are always on the same phase of he journey as you are, providing a more genuine emotion to their preformances. It is a very well-constructed, well-orchestrated film and never gives way to it's own complex plot.As for the acting, Osment is able to play the very troubled kid, Cole, alive with raw fear. To capture such a mature preformance out of a child his age is truly incredible. Willis gives a very earnest preformance as Dr. Malcolm Crowe as well, and it'll be hard or forget as well... I was genuinely surprised at how convincing both the leads and the supporting cast was. It doesn't get more authentic than this.The instant success of this movie prompted Shyamalan to churn out more movies made in its image. Next was Unbreakable, a fantastic movie, and quite possibly an equal to The Sixth Sense. In 2002 came Signs, which was a great drama but little for suspense. In 2004, Shyamalan returned again with his signature "plot twist" with The Village, which fails to impress me. There is no doubt that Shyamalan hit hard with this movie, as he has been trying desperately to re-create the amazing experience found here. It just goes to show a formula is only good for so long, and he nails it in The Sixth Sense.M. Night Shyamalan has since been branded as a one-trick pony. While I disagree, I can understand those who think that. His films are similar... some are great, others aren't all that good. Even if it's true, The Sixth Sense is a pretty amazing trick and undoubtedly the movie that started it all for Shyamalan.

Thats all. The heading says it all. but in all seriousness the writing and the acting of the entire movie was brilliant. the use of colors to depict and foreshadow the for-coming events was the most beautiful attempt in film making. it has been used in several movie and all of which follow this movies suit.
