Good movie - Sort of a disappointment

Rating: Null/10 (24 November 2000)

Okay, let me first start off by saying that my review of this movie is somewhat skewed because we got to the theatre late and were stuck in the front row. In a movie like this, you really need the ability to see the entire frame so you can take it all in.
Having said that, I absolutely love the Sixth Sense, and was expecting this movie to be very similar. The camera work is fantastic in this film, the long shots ... the unusual angles ... it all works very well. What turned me off, however, was the general 'theme' of this movie. I wasn't expecting comic books to play such a major role.
Over all, good movie. Just a bit unexpected. The plot was a bit more predictable then the Sixth Sense, but that's to be expected. The only ending, in my mind, that challenges The Sixth Sense was The Usual Suspects.
Go see the movie, you'll enjoy it. Just don't expect anther human-emotion thriller like The Sixth Sense.
