- Synopsis:
Hollywood superstar Bruce brings a powerful presence to an edge-of-your-seat supernatural thriller that critics have called one of the best films in recent times. Dr. Malcolm Crowe (Bruce Willis) is a distinguished child psychologist haunted by the painful memory of a disturbed young patient he was unable to help. So when he meets Cole Sear (Haley Joel Osmen)... a frightened, confused eight-year-old with a similar condition... Dr. Crowe seeks to redeem himself by doing everything he can. Nonetheless, Malcolm is unprepared to learn the truth of what haunts Cole: terrifying, unwanted visits from the restless inhabitants of the spirit world. With a riveting intensity you'll find thoroughly chilling and utterly unforgettable, the discovery of Cole's incredible 6th sense leads them both to mysterious and unforeseeable consequences. - Actors:

Clever Ghost Story - The Sixth Sense review by GI
Notorious for it's big plot twist and reveal (of which I will give nothing away in case you haven't seen this) this remains a moving, intricate and very well written ghost story, full of suspense it is director M. Night Shyamalan's best film. Bruce Willis is eminent child psychologist Malcolm Crowe. He takes on a new patient, a young boy named Cole (Haley Joel Osment), who suffers from chronic anxiety and is socially ostracised. His mother (Toni Collette) doesn't know why and is desperate to help her little boy. Malcolm soon discovers that Cole has a deep secret that he has never revealed and Malcolm knows he has to get the boy to tell him what it is if he is to help him. He is completely unprepared for what that secret happens to be. Willis and Collette are both fantastic here but the film goes to young Osment who really nails the role of Cole. It's an emotional rollercoaster and whilst there's some shocks along the way Shyamalan is rightly restrained making the film extremely watchable. He sprinkles clues throughout the narrative and follow up viewings help you to spot them. This is often cited as a film that is spoiled once you know how it turns out but I disagree. This is a film with more to offer than just the story's conclusion and I recommend you to watch again if you've only seen it once. And if you've never seen this little gem then I really recommend it.

Fine drama - The Sixth Sense review by CD
This film gets great reviews and I can see why. The casting and acting is great, and the film has a sadness and emotion running though it that reminds me a little of the 1990 Film "Ghost" (starring Patrick Swayze). It's not particularly scary but is certainly unsettling. I found it an engrossing watch, well directed and superbly paced. Highly recommended.
