Sixth Sense Critique

The Sixth Sense manages to create a horror movie that doesn't rely on gore and jump scares very often. It plays off of a great story and mental themes that make things scary.  The whole movie succeeds in being scary and interesting before you even know the twist at the end and then when it is revealed it just puts a whole new light on an already amazing film.  When you see that everything fits into place you appreciate it more than you already did and how it keeps your attention before you know whats really going on the whole time.  The theme of redemption in this movie i strong in both Malcom and Cole's stories.  Malcom needs redemption for the failure of his prior patient and Cole needs to find a way to live a normal life with this incredible problem he has.  They end up helping each other and it ties together really well.
