"When constructing the psychological state of being frightened time and time again, the director did not amplify the effect, and even used blindfolding techniques to prevent the audience from realizing that ghosts were floating around. As the little boy said, sometimes ghosts do not realize that they are dead and Most wishes remain unfulfilled. As the only communication bridge between humans and ghosts, the little boy put away his fear..."

The comprehensive score from 86 media outlets is as high as 85 points!
As for film critics, "The Sixth Sense" seems to be very in line with the appetites of veteran film critics.
Dean Films will do public relations for film critics and the media, but it cannot be so comprehensive.
But this time, film critics almost unanimously applauded it.
The famous veteran film critic Robert Bigelow wrote a film review specifically for "The Sixth Sense" in his personal column.
"Perhaps under the influence of cult movies, we can easily become warriors who face the dripping blood. Adrenaline will surge for the stumps that are scattered in response. Hormones will be high in the sky during the collision of motorcycles. Follow the director's free-wheeling movements. There is a hearty emotional explosion in the wanton editing and shocking sound effects. You can shout or scold, be as casual as you want, and be as chic as you want. But with Li, you have to restrain yourself. , you must sit still and sit up straight, because Cole said "I see dead people". If a nine-year-old boy said that he could see dead people, would you believe it? Would you say he is a freak? Psychiatrist Mike will believe that Cole's mother will not call him a freak. Maybe this is why "The Sixth Sense" is so popular.
I can say this film deserves an Oscar!
Horror and thriller are the highlights of this film. Unlike those lame horror films that use blood and endless screaming to create a terrifying atmosphere, Li, who comes from China, used "The Sixth Sense" to tell directors that thrillers do not need to be The exaggerated violence and gore, the intricate plot and the calm and restrained lens language are enough to win people's hearts.
The undead wandered around with empty and desperate eyes, the red tent filled with statues shone with a cold light, the tearful boy hid in the corner and shivered, and the white air he breathed out was clearly discernible...
It seems that every frame of the image is refrigerated in sub-freezing temperatures. The director tells the story extremely calmly, without exaggerating or deliberately sensationalizing. He just follows the camera. At the ending, the touching feeling has not gone far, and the shock comes suddenly, which makes the film full of emotions. It makes people sweat, and it also makes people feel chills down their spines.
Do you still remember the amazing "The Truman Show" back then? Li's works have always amazed people with their subversive story endings, but his mastery and mastery in controlling the rhythm of the story and his delicate and touching capture of the characters' emotions cannot be ignored.
Although the movie advances in chronological order, its level of suspense has not diminished at all. From the beginning, the psychiatrist Mike was shot and his life and death were uncertain, to Cole's yin and yang eyes gradually revealed, to Cole being honest with the doctor and starting to help the walking patient. From the undead, to Cole emerging from fear and embracing his mother intimately, to the revelation that the doctor is dead, each stage is reached at the right place. It is fascinating and the emotions are slowly accumulating until the final explosion. Everything will fall into place. What could be more natural and more completely tilted than the feeling of deep still water?
The complementation of the story and lens language gives the film itself a good framework, but Li, who has received many honors, is not an ordinary person. The warmth and touch hidden behind the horror are an extremely powerful medicine.
At the beginning of the film, a child who was abandoned by Mike ten years ago broke down and committed suicide. Mike himself was shot and died, but Mike did not disappear. He didn't even know that he was dead until the end. So what made him stay? what? Is it an unfulfilled wish, a love that is too late to express, a concern that cannot be let go, a grievance that is too late to express, or is it that he wants to atone for his sins?
The girl who was poisoned by her stepmother wanted to protect her sister. Cole's grandmother wanted to tell her daughter that she was proud of her every day. The living remember the dead and fall asleep every night staring at the videos of the past, longing for their embrace and their warmth. The love in their hearts suddenly becomes lonely because death takes away the one they love. And the dead have to keep wandering in the distant watch, watching the pain of their loved ones but being unable to do anything. What else can they do except wandering blindly? Every time they get close, it does not bring the expected comfort but makes people feel sad. A creeping chill. Cole's appearance is the channel desired by both parties, so the dead can get their wish and the living can be relieved.
Every lingering soul is filled with unspeakable love and has an elusive wish. It is beautiful but has an inevitable sadness. We can say that death has not abandoned love, and death cannot let go. Love dies, maybe as the saying goes: "Death will exist forever as the opposite of life." Maybe they have not really left, maybe the creepy moment is the affectionate embrace of the deceased, maybe this winter is really not too cold. "
In fact, "The Sixth Sense" has not only won the favor of veteran film critics.
Similarly, on social networks, the famous and popular online film critic Leslie Rodger also praised the film.
""The Sixth Sense" is a supernatural and suspense film. Although the pace is steady and the front tone is slow, there are still small surprises and twists. At the beginning of the story, it tells the story of a mental patient with yin and yang eyes who shot him. The psychiatrist Mike committed suicide, and then directly switched the screen to enter the theme. The story began to be told from the perspective of a little boy who could see ghosts and the psychiatrist determined to help him, and these two lonely souls also began to walk away. closer to each other.
It sounds like a very simple story, and judging from the content and structure of the film review, the film's reversal is also a "routine", but it is still a classic. With the addition of warmth and tear-jerking, the sudden reversal at the end still won many shocked faces and subsequent applause from the audience. Reversals are actually not uncommon, but how to achieve the connection between the front and the back, and the echo from the beginning to the end? , making the narrative of the story more complete, making the reversal surprising, but not just reversal for the sake of reversal.
Rating: Rigor: 9.0!
I have to praise Harris, the young actor in "The Sixth Sense". There is a joke in Hollywood: Don't act in movies with children or dogs. The reason is that they will behave unexpectedly and either ruin the entire film or behave abnormally. outstanding. The performance of the little boy Harris is outstanding, and the panic and confusion when seeing a ghost are perfectly conveyed. Maybe it's because he's a child that the emotions feel so real.
In terms of picture production, the image design of the ghosts is also very conscientious. In line with the loneliness and haziness that the film focuses on, the images of the ghosts are bland and even lingering about helplessness and alienation. This may be the effect the film wants to create, but Suddenly appearing in the field of vision will still bring a feeling of horror.
In fact, the pace of the film was very fast at the beginning, but after the psychiatrist was shot, the scene changed, and then suddenly slowed down, and it seemed to start to talk about children's psychological problems that had nothing to do with before. The plot gets better step by step, until the child says "I can see dead people, all the time." The theme of the movie appears, and various ghosts also appear. The audience then understands that the little boy's science His withdrawn personality and strange behavior are not psychological problems, but because of his supernatural sixth sense. Everything goes with the flow, and the narration is eloquent, but the plot is not confusing at all, but rather rigorous.
Sense of detail: 8.5!
A good reversal is not only sudden and unexpected, but also the foreshadowing is integrated into the details, and the surprise lies in the reason. The arrangement of "The Sixth Sense" is extremely exquisite, allowing the audience to be dumbfounded with the protagonist at the moment they witness the ending, and then burst into tears.
There are many clever little details in the movie, such as when Cole woke up at night and saw a shadow walking back and forth outside, thinking it was his mother; the photo frame at home became cold and frozen because the little boy's grandmother came back to visit her family and touched the photo with her fingers; When the doctor's wife Anna hugged other men, the glass of the store door shattered... Many words or images that seemed to pass by were condensed at the last moment and turned into a huge "nuclear bomb" that hit the audience's eyes. Heart.
Comprehension: 8.5!
This is a gentle story, the protagonist has no protagonist halo, the plot is very considerate, and the foreshadowing is well laid out. When everything disappears, only the intriguing tenderness remains in the world. You don't know which one will come first, tomorrow or the accident. Maybe when you die, you still have things you want to do, people you want to continue to love, and regrets, but life is over, and you can never leave. came back. The movie crosses the boundaries of horror films, gives people a better yearning for life, and tells people to cherish everything around them.
In the movie, Cole said this: "People sometimes think they have lost something, but in fact they have not. It is just a change of place." Maybe those people we love, when they leave the world, they just change a place. Existence and the memories they bring us will always affect our lives.
Sociality: 9.0
The core themes of the film are emotion, family, and communication.
It can be said that this topic has been a topic that people discuss every day for many years.
The most important thing is communication. I believe everyone will be thinking about a question after watching the movie. Why are children often unwilling to tell the truth to their parents?
The young minds of children can actually keenly capture the emotions of adults. If you are asked who will tolerate your bad temper, the first person you think of may be your own parents. But in fact, children are the same. They love you, so they are willing to tolerate you. In order to make you happy, they are willing to pretend to act to please you. They are also afraid of you, and because they are afraid that you will not love them, they give in and bury their emotions in their hearts, choosing to be a good child.
What about inner fears and inner needs? At this time, in order to protect themselves, people's defense mechanism begins to take effect, and the child once again falls into the whirlpool of fear and avoidance emotions. Therefore, when parents lose their temper, children are unwilling to face themselves honestly and hide their true selves.
If you don't believe me, how can you help me?
Many times parents always say that they trust their children, but when it comes to reality, their words and deeds are often inconsistent. When many parents encounter problems, they always like to teach their children a lesson without asking the reason, but they do not seriously understand the children's inner thoughts and the authenticity of the things. This makes the children unwilling to tell their parents what is on their mind. Over time, this The parent-child bond will fade. For example, Cole's mother preconceived that Cole was lying and repeatedly asked Cole to admit his mistakes. She did not give the child a safe atmosphere to let him express his inner concerns. It was not until the end that the mother realized that she had feelings for Cole. So many misunderstandings.
Not only children, but also adults have communication problems. Relatives, such as mothers and grandmothers, obviously love each other deeply, but they have never been able to communicate well.
There are many loves that are obviously undying until death, and they keep saying I love you in their hearts. But when they are alive, they are silent and tactful, unable to say a word, until it is irreversible, and they end up hurting each other and misunderstanding each other. the result of. "
