Summary: Incredible, classic film
The Sixth Sense, while rated PG-13, succeeds at being genuinely SCARY, a
feat which few other films can boast of achieving. With unbelievable
cinematography, a HIDEOUS soundtrack (in a good way), amazing acting, and a
twist ending that, dare I say it, MAKES SENSE, this film truly deserved the
Best Picture Oscar over Shakespeare in Love.
To briefly summarize the plot, Bruce Willis plays a child psychologist who,
after celebrating a prestigious award from the mayor of Philadelphia, is
assaulted by a former patient. This patient, screaming "YOU FAILED ME!"
opens fire at Bruce Willis.
Zoom ahead to the next fall. Bruce Willis is now healed, and is beginning
to investigate a little boy, Cole. This boy appears to have numerous
psychological problems plaguing him, and Bruce Willis wishes to help him.
The two bond, and it appears that Cole harbors a truly strange secret. He
is able to see ghosts, and they don't know they're dead. He wants them to
go away. How is this conflict solved? Watch this truly frightening
thriller.
Haley Joel Osment is an unbelievable actor. I pray he got the Best Actor
nomination, for he truly deserved it. Bruce Willis gives a surprisingly
UNBELIEVABLE performance, showing that he isn't just an action movie star.
M. Night Shaynaman's direction makes those scenes with the ghosts
FRIGHTENING. The film is more of a thriller than outright horror, but it is
just plain SPOOKY to watch. Who isn't frightened by normal people turning
heir bodies to suddenly reveal part of their body tainted by
blood?
Would I recommend this film? INDEED. 10/10
