M. Night Shyamalan wrote and directed The Sixth Sense and hit it out of the park, as it's the one film that put him on Hollywood's radar.
Alas, his subsequent projects never really seemed to strike quite the same vein again, which dented his reputation and made him known more as a one-hit-wonder than the new Spielberg, as he was hailed right after Sense.
I personally like the director and most, if not all of his movies. Some are better than others, sure, but that can be said for most directors out there. Not everyone has the consistent magic touch, and even Spielberg has made some not-so-hot movies.
Anyway, this is definitely a good movie, with a carefully crafted mystery that once revealed really makes you see why people generally love it so much.
THE BOTTOM LINE: I've watched this movie more than once and even though I know the big reveal I still find it well crafted, well acted, and well put together overall. Definitely recommended.
Grade: 8
