Not just a thriller

Rating: 10/10 (31 May 2003)

The Sixth Sense is about love, relationships, eternity and faith as much as it is a thriller. It is a very accomplished scare film but if it were just that it could join the hopper of similar forgettable movies made and forgotten every year. "Sense" rises far above the genre, creating people we care about in situations we understand and with a philosophical approach that says much about the way people live. I think it is one of the finest films of the decade and will survive a long time.
