In THE SIXTH SENSE, a child psychologist (Bruce Willis) helps a child cope with special gift he has -the ability to see the dead. What at first appears to be just another over-hyped summer thriller is actually one of the few gems to come out of this summer which has been plagued with mediocrity. The story is well thought out and builds itself nicely and the performance by the young boy (whose name eludes me, but think Forrest Gump's son) is excellent. Bruce Willis is slightly miscast, but he never really looks right without waving a machine gun anyways. See it and be prepared for the best surprise ending you've seen since The Usual Suspects.

Once again, the critics were wrong! Every paid film critic panned this film, and just about everyone else loved it. This is a very moving story of a young tortured boy and the psychologist who tries to relieve him of his agonies. Mislabeled as a horror film, the story is actually very sensitive and touching.It's well-written, well-directed, and well-acted by Toni Collete(as the boy's mother), and by the young actor who plays the boy. Bruce Willis, although miscast, does his best, and the screenplay helps him to look better than he's capable of being. The ending(and don't you dare spoil it by telling anyone!) is one of the most surprising, even shocking, of any film this year.
