If you guys got $8 to shell out, go see this movie. Its not a great movie, but worth the money. The story is different and the ending is even more interesting…
The moronic Bruce Willis has finally taken a role that will salvage his career for another month or so…never should have left Demi!!
I liked it!
and the little boy...aaa so cute! I just about died when he got stuck in the attic room.

Great movie :)excellent story line.
MR.
Did you'll know that Sixth Sense was directed
by an Indian rather an Indian American.
Mr. M. Night Shyamalan who was born in Madras (Chennai), India and raised in Philadelphia has directed the movie. He was
on Larry King Live Last week.
Looks like Indians are having a presence in Hollywood. Shekhar Kapur's ELizabeth was a big hit in US and Europe. This week Deepa Mehta's Earth (1947 in India ) will be released. Udayan Prasad's 'My son the fanatic' was well received. Mira Nair has already made a name with 'Missisippi Masala, Kamasutra, The Perez family. ER is partially directed by a Indian director originally from Mumbai.
Manoj Shyamalan - Writer - Director of Sixth Sense.
An Indian director in Hollywood
BEVERLY HILLS - A nine-year-old boy questions the existence of God when his beloved grandfather passes away in "Wide Awake," a poignant comedy about loss and love. For director M. Night Shyamalan (Manoj Shyamalan), the thorny subject matter allowed him to focus on children's honest emotions. "I think because they're such wonderful mirrors and vehicles for emotions, such wonderful storytelling vehicles," he said. "To put a child in an emotional situation, to put a child in a funny situation, or scary, it seems to enhance each of those moments. I just love when they're doing it correctly, when they're just being themselves. There's a real trueness to it on the screen. It really appeals to me."
Dressed in black jeans and a black button-down, the 27-year-old Shyamalan affably discussed "Wide Awake." With a warm, languorous smile, he described how he based "Wide Awake" on his own experiences growing up in Pennsylvania. He still lives in his hometown of Philadelphia, and shot the film at the Waldron Mercy Academy, the Catholic elementary school he attended as a child.
Homecoming remains an important theme for Shyamalan, whose first film "Praying with Anger" chronicled an American-born Indian who studies abroad in Madras to discover his roots. In a concession to Western difficulties with pronunciation, Shyamalan shortened his first name of Manoj to M. to avoid mangling. He shot "Praying with Anger" at the age of 21, but said starting young has helped him maintain his own vision.
"The big advantage of starting young is that I got to create my own voice, as opposed to making it a version of someone else's voice," he said. "By working with so many people, and learning their view of things, completely, and making my voice a version of theirs. That's also helped being in Philadelphia, being able to just do my own thing, and hope that everyone responds to it."
I think sixth sense was a good watchable movie. Although I did not like it that much first. I don't think Bruce Willis was any good in it though... he actually had a pretty simple role which did not require much acting skills.
I liked Bruce when he was doing Moonlighting... then he did Diehard...which was also bearable... its from part 2 then he went down the hill... though he was good in Pulp Fiction! :)
friend told me it was awesome, which ended up making my expectations too high. thought it was good but not great. :)ending was the best part. :)
Learn to love yourself, then learn to love one-another
Its not a good movie
Its an EXCELLENT movie
Willis was great as usual...
The Kid was exactly that...a kid
dead people were'nt bad either.
I heard it was a VERY good movie!
"NASD" IS THE WORD I'M LOOKING FOR!!!!
