The Sixth Sense (1999)
Excellent Film Despite Lack of 'Surprise'
I would have to say that The Sixtth Sense ranks right up there as being of my favorite movies of 1999. But the fact is, as soon as I heard that there was a surprise ending, I made a guess as to what it was. And as I sat at the theatre watching the movie, I started nodding to myself that my guess was indeed acurate. All being said, the Sixth Sense was quite spooky and did create a wonderfully eerie type atmosphere. The writing was wonderful as writer/director M. Night really got into the minds of the characters. Plus, this film probably serves as a classic character study and makes you question the world around you. Well done M. Night, Bruce Willis, Haley Joel and the rest on a job marvellously done.
Delivered (1998)
Terrific
A terrific little film. Strickland gave a realistic and heartfelt performance of a guy dissatisfied with his life. The movie revolves around Strickland, who plays a pizza delivery guy who makes comments about his crappy life into his tape recorder. When said recorder falls into the hands of a serial killer, he sets out to kill the people who have ticked Strickland off. The final battle scene between our hero and the bad guy is surprising in that it does not follow the traditional rules of what happens in the last fight scene in most movies. Rent this film, and you might just be surprised with how much you like it and even identify with it.
