Possibly 1 of the last great original films :(

Rating: 9/10 (26 June 2019)

I am writing this review long long after this movie had been released so I will try to stick to my feelings at the time I watched it.
It definitely started a new & exciting trend in movies but it also made it more difficult for future movies to surprise(?) us as successfully.
However I really didn't enjoy this movie the first time I watched it and even watched it again to look for certain things that I may have missed. This is something I rarely do (re-watch).
It was a very good classic horror story that kept me entertained and I enjoyed watching till the end.
Almost all horror...etc.. movies nowadays have very disappointing endings,( and I use the term "ending" very very loosely)..
it's like they just decide to stop filming after realizing they didn't know how to conclude anything & basically wasted our time watching a story that went nowhere while spitting out the usual BS excuse " we wanted to leave it up to you the user to decide what happens" , which basically explains nothing.
I felt like the sixth sense left me with an extremely satisfying conclusions and The overwhelming excitement to discuss it with others. If you are one of the very, very few people who has not watched or heard of this movie, then first of all ..."WoW!!!" You're lucky if you getting to watch it for the first time without any info about it & second, if you are planning to watch this soon, I suggest you do so without really reading too much about it or letting others who've already seen it, tell you much about it.
As for the film itself, I really enjoyed the story, the entire unfolding, the acting and basically everything else. It did a great job of keeping me engaged and pretty much stuck to the story without adding unnecessary scenes for nothing more then shock value or filler.
It's definitely become a cult classic and my only regret is not being able to see it for the first time again....
I feel as though this was sadly one of the last decent movies in at least the last decade or so.
it's so obviously only about money now... instead of quality storytelling.
There are many extremely talented people out there who are MORE than capeable of creating amazing films, but most likely they'll never be given the chance to express their work Because Hollywood is too crowded for "unknown" & unproven talent..
So until them we will keep getting these generic scripts or consistent rewrites from the people with the "big names" that make money.
:::sigh:::
