The Sixth Sense | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

The film’s an extended exercise in flattering the fooled viewer for being a viewer and for being fooled.

This is popcorn cinema at its most purely empathetic – a horror film where the true horror is in not being seen, heard or understood by those around us, especially the people we love.

It is fitting that Shyamalan – the man who revers Spielberg, who filmed homages of his films in the backyard – made a ghost story that feels almost Spielbergian. Its child perspective means The Sixth Sense contains a sense of wonder

A breakout hit for all parties involved for good reason. Still manages to be effective and engaging no matter how long you've known the ending, especially thanks to Osment's tortured performance.
