Album Description
A gripping ghost story with a stunning finale, The Sixth Sense became a surprise blockbuster shortly after its release. The film features Oscar-nominated performances by the startlingly intense Osment and the fiercely maternal Collette, as well as a subtle, subdued turn by Willis. Shyamalan directs his intriguing script with almost clinical precision, using carefully framed visuals to create the film's distinctly chilling atmosphere. On the strength of its pitch-perfect acting and direction, The Sixth Sense has become the most successful thriller of all time.

 6th Sense looks great in BD. Hit Film, Box Office Hit October 3, 2008
I actually like M. Night Shyamalan's later movies much more, beginning with the following Unbreakable and Signs even the Village and on, but yes I like this film and the BD was better all around than the standard DVD. If you have the DVD it is good enough; if you are HD nuts, this is the copy to get.
 Good movie gets mediocre Blu-Ray treatment October 2, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Good, if somewhat overrated, film has great atmosphere, intriguing story, fine direction and great acting, especially from young Osment (in his debut film role). Worth seeing for sure, although repeat viewings offer diminishing returns.
The 1080p transfer is mediocre, with subdued colors, and a flat, two-dimensional look: the mediocrity continues with extras that are warmed over trifles taken from the previous DVD "special edition", which, frankly, weren't all that special. The sound fares a bit better, with the rear speakers used quite effectively at times. A slight, but barely noticeable upgrade in picture quality from the SD edition, for all but the most discernible viewer.
If you don't own any other editions of this film, rent before you buy; owners of the SD edition can safely pass this up... or at least wait, until the price comes down on this one.
 A great movie that looks great on Blu. Disney alway's comes through on Blu. October 1, 2008
1 out of 4 found this review helpful
We all know that this movie made a big splash when it came out. Now that it has made it's Blu-Ray debut, it wont dissappoint many. If you have Unbreakable and Signs on Blu, or Lady In The Water on HD DVD, you will find that it is of the same quality for picture and sound. Sound may not play as big of a part in this title, but it is clean and crisp.
The picture is very nice. I cant say that it ranks up there with some of the best looking titles to hit Blu-Ray, but it is very clean and nice. The blacks are very nice, and stay that way consistantly. Very even on the color. This is somewhat of a dark movie, so the brighter side is somewhat dull as it was probably intended. The skintones are accurate and the close up details come through nicely. There are no scratches or artifacts on the film itself. It has been cleaned and cared for and is presented the way it should be. A very good effort once again.
The sound does it's job. Nothing to write home about being that this movie is a drama without explosions and shootouts. The surround sound is nice and detailed, but on a subtle scale. The voices are clean and crisp, with no distractions. I loved this movie and I have no complaints about this title from Disney. They do a masterful job as alway's on Blu. A nice upgrade from the standard dvd edition if your a fan. 4 out of 5 stars would be an 80% grade. This title is better than a C grade. An 8.5 to a 9 out of 10 would be accurate to me.
 Lackluster transfer and even more disappointing features- get the standard DVD instead September 6, 2008
3 out of 11 found this review helpful
The Sixth Sense is a fantastic movie, one of my childhood favorites. I remember it all, the ghost passing by the bathroom door at night, pukey girl in the tent, and the twist ending that had us on the edge of our seat. I had the tape of this and would watch it every day in the summer. I am very glad this is out on Blu-Ray, but as soon as I began watching it, about 30 minutes in, I already had a bad feeling. The picture is terribly grainy in a few bits, most notably the scene where Cole goes to calm his mother down at night. Cole's mom's nose has a bleed on it (slight red ghosting effect) during the "Picture scene" and Malcom's hair bleeds a bit too in some scenes. And the special features were disappointing too, they were just the special features on the Vista Series DVD. Sound quality is OK, but other than that, you're better off buying the DVD.
