Thoroughly professional, completely engrossing film art.

Rating: Null/10 (5 October 1999)

A big studio, big star film that has the look and feel of a highly personal, independent production. This is one of the finest examples of cinema storytelling that I have ever seen. All aspects: screenplay; direction; acting; photography; editing; art & design; and musical score are superb. Every person connected with this production should feel exceptionally proud, especially the director and screenwriter, M. Night Shyamalan, whose talent is the strong common thread weaving all the aforementioned ingredients together. "The Sixth Sense," in my opinion, is one of the finest films of this decade and is destined to become a classic of its genre. Mr. Shyamalan has raised the humble ghost story to the level of art, and he has done it in such a way that his film puts many so-called reality-based motion pictures to shame.
