"This review may contain a spoiler"
First a complaint to the marketing peoples at 'Disney'. Presenting the film as a sequel to 'The Sixth Sense' is a big mistake because everyone expect something like that film and when they don't get that they become disappointed with the product.
Now that I said that to the film, which I enjoyed very much. I liked the slow pace of the film. I liked the fact That M. Night Shyamalan took its time to tell the story and I found myself relating to the story very much and here is the second problem of the film. If you want to enjoy it you have to accept and believe in some of the things it tells you. i.e: that the world is a place where good and evil fight each other,all the time,that everyone needs hope in a world that have little hope to offer,in order to keep on living. If you can accept what the film says you will enjoy it more,if not than you will not like the film at all. I had also problem with one of the scenes and I'm talking about the scene where Joseph Dunn (Spencer Treat Clark) try to shoot his father David (Bruce Willis). The scene was ridiculous and everyone involved were acting over the top which was not in tune with the rest of the film. Bruce Willis & Samuel L. Jackson were excellent and the interaction with one another was superb.
I recommend this film though it's not a perfect one, and again ignore the fact that it's been marketed as a sequel.This is a completely different film.

The review above has been written 6 or 7 years ago.I have just watched the film again and I can not believe I have liked it.This is a very pretentious film.A much a do about nothing.Characters who talk and act in clichÃ©s.A script full of holes and a film which is shot in the wrong angles. The kid is simply irritating.I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.Just show you that some films do not stand well the signs of time.
