See it! - even if you don't like "horror" movies...

Rating: 10/10 (28 August 1999)

The Sixth Sense is one of the best movies I've ever seen, both technically and entertainment-wise.
At least on first viewing, I did not see any holes in the plot or story-line - something that's very important to me in a good movie. For the story to work, you must believe that it is possible for someone to see ghosts. M. Night Shamalan wrote and directed this film in such a way that you can't walk away from the theatre saying "I might have believed this story, except that the kid or the doctor did such and such, or didn't do so and so, or did you notice how the ghosts did this or that..." Going back over the things the characters did and said, you find that everything matches up with the surprise ending perfectly - no holes.
Haley's acting is incredible, Bruce Willis' is acceptable and improves as the movie continues. M. Night Shamalan did an outstanding job creating a different kind of a ghost story - just enough 'blood and guts' to call it a horror story, but more thought-provoking than anything else. Oh, by the way, bring a handkerchief or some tissues!
