A fantastic must see film.

Rating: 10/10 (7 August 1999)

In the movie "The Sixth Sense", which was filmed in Philadelphia, Bruce Willis plays Dr. Malcolm Crowe, a child psychologist intent on helping a child, Cole Sear (Haley Joel Osment) who has been labeled as a "freak" by his classmates. What Dr. Crowe soon discovers is that Cole can communicate with dead people.
This movie, which started off a little slow, necessary for good character development, will scare the heck out of you, yet at the same time it hits you on a deep emotional level like a freight train. One minute the hairs on the back of your neck are standing up in a panic, then a few minutes later you are overwhelmed with emotions surrounding death presented in a way that will touch everyone. I heard several people in the theater sob openly, a few others left, I assume that was because they could not take it. This was all done without the use of wild graphic special effects that often kill a good movie.
The surprise ending, also excellent, will blow you away and make you think about how the entire movie was presented. This one is a true shocker, the audience just sat in their seats shocked when it ended.
This one blew away "The Blair Witch Project" which I also felt was an excellent film. This one gets a ten on the Hit Man Movie Scale, a must see movie. I don't think that I will sleep for about a week w/o getting nightmares.
