I first saw this film at the cinema the day after it came out and it scared me whitless!!!However only recently have I got myself a copy of this brilliant film………
The film is based around a little boy called coel(Haley Joel Osmon) and his psychologist(Bruce Willis). Coel at the start of the film just seems weird but as the story goes on more and more of it is unwrapped and you begin to see the horrible truth and that there is really something wrong with this little boy. In fact he can see dead people………Malcolm Crowe wants to help Malcolm but he believes he cant and gives up on him until he to discovers the truth and when it all seems good and well in the film and you think it is all over there is a twist which makes everything else in the film make more sense.
The twist in the film is the icing on the cake of a great film. It makes everything else in the film make sense and makes the film something that you will want to watch again so you can understand why certain things are happening. The twist in this film is sheer brilliance! The story line of this film is just sheer genius the way it is done, the way the twist fits in so well, I honestly cannot see any flaws with it.
All the people in the film are top notch at there parts in the film. Bruce Willis was the perfect person to play Malcolm as he actually looks like he is that kind of character, he adds quite a bit of stultify and seriousness to the film Haley Joel was brilliant in this film like he is in all of them and plays the role extremely well, he has the ability to make the role suit him extremely well and his acting is extremely good and you don’t get that from many older actors yet alone young ones like him. All the other actors in the film are great to Coles mother is brilliant and plays the role great when she gets all uptight and screams in the film you actually feel that it is real, not like some films where they have mindless screaming at each other which mean nothing.
There are no special affects in this film really, well there are just not in thew way of big explosions etc. The special affects are the way they dress up the actors who are playing dead people, it is extremely realistic and very well done…….sickening in some cases.
The 6th Sense is in a league of its own when you come to comparing it because there is no other film available that is such a master piece of horror. Most horror films with a subject like this would just be unnecessary gore and guts, however not this film. Sheer brilliance!
The case of the DVD is one of the old style ones so the case is a bit flimsy compared to some of the recent case you get a little booklet giving you all the DVD chapters and information on all the actors involved in the film.
Now what is a horror film without a soundtrack???One of the min things that builds up atmosphere in this film and in any film really is the music. The way the quite earey music builds up to the point when cool says he can see dead people being hung, Malcolm looks nothing there, Cole looks and there is a massive boom as you see a family being hung.
The sheer amount of features on this DVD is great, there is story board, the cast, Music and sound design, Reaching the audience, Rules and clues, Publicity and biographies. But best of all there are deleted scenes from the film, most of them do not make sense on there own, but there is an alternative ending which is quite good. However I think the ending they put on the film was better! The quality of these features are all good an are mostly all spoken.
Overall I totally enjoyed this film and would watch it again any time. I would recommend it to anyone who hasn’t scene it yet and I would like to end this op on the note
