A daily comment from Midget Emma: The Sixth Sense (1999)

Rating: 8/10 (23 February 2008)

A creepy little spook movie to watch on a Saturday night. The Sixth Sense will remain a classic for a very long time if not forever. 10 star performances and a little twist at the end makes a good movie.
I don't like movies that keep me up at night. This didn't but it had me turning around a lot hoping for a spirit not to be standing behind me. This is one of those movies that will scare the hell out of some and will not even make some jump. It depends on what sort of person you are. If pale ghosts with slit wrists walking past doors scare you then you may not want to see this movie.
The twist was good. I didn't see that coming. But some will see it coming a mile away. It was ruined for some by 50 first dates.
WARNING: DO NOT WATCH 50 FIRST DATES BEFORE WATCHING THIS. IT GIVES THE ENDING AWAY.

Luckily i had seen The Sixth Sense before i saw 50 first dates.
Now the acting. It is extremely rare to find a great performance from a kid. But Haley Joel Osment gave me the greatest performance i have ever seen from a child. He is disturbing and a cursed kid. Bruce Willis plays a very different role then the hero John McClane. But he was still good. But the one who stole the show was Toni Collette. She was just so natural and great. She played Haley Joel's mum. She was just excellent.
You might be thinking why has she said it is so good and then gave it an 8/10. Well i am not a fan of this movies at all. But on its own it is a great movie. Make your own decision. I recommend it.
8/10
