This movie saved horror for me

Rating: 10/10 (17 October 1999)

When I saw this movie, I was absolutely amazed at how scary it really was. I didn't even want to go see it to begin with, having just seen the completely unscary The Haunting and The Blair Witch Project (which was an incredible film, but not as frightening as it was made out to be). I was losing my faith in horror; it seemed as if the last movie that was even remotely scary was 1980's The Shining, and even that was overlong and only littered lightly with shocks.
But The Sixth Sense scared the hell out of me.
My girlfriend and I had our eyes covered quite a few times, which I do not regret because I know it saved me at least some sleep last night, and the whole theater jumped on that first quick glimpse of one of them (see the movie and you'll know the one I mean).
The ending, of course, was brilliant, even if it was a bit unrealistic (I've come up with many questions that can't be answered about the film). I won't go on about the acting, because everyone else already has, but I will mention what nobody ever notices except in Lawrence of Arabia where you can't miss it: The cinimatography was amazing. Every shot was perfect - not distracting, but noticible if you're looking for it.
See this movie. I'll never say I hate Bruce Willis again.
