The Sixth Sense (1999 Film)

Hey everyone, I wanted to talk about this movie quickly. This won't be my usual review as I don't have that much time but would like to talk about it a bit. So the movie revolves around a doctor and a kid. The kid can see ghosts, and the doctor is some sort of psychiatrist. The movie begin with the doctor getting shot, and the film moves to the next fall where he goes and tracks down the kid.

So the kid is really scared and shuts out basically everyone except for the doctor, and it's up to him to try and figure out a problem to help the kid with his ghost problem. At the same time, he has trouble talking with his wife after the incident the year before.

Up until around past half-way of the film, I thought the film was a bit boring as not that much happened. I actually thought it was another horror film because of the way the cover presents itself, and because it is a supernatural thriller film, but I was wrong haha.

After around half way through the film there are actually a few things which are revealed, and within the ending of the film, you realise what really was going on, and we get some sort of closure to the film. I think the writer(s) of this film were very cleaver, and you can tell that they spent some time working out the plot from beginning to end. Although it's not mentioned, I would say that there are aspects of the psychological genre in this film as I starting to begin thinking of stuff within the last half of the movie, but that's just me anyway haha.

I would give this film a 7/10. It's not bad at all, but you just need to remember to watch the whole movie. Don't just assume anything without watching the full movie from start to end, that is all I am going to say. Goodnight!
