Full Reaction on Patreon: / sixth-sense-full-96625830 - Our Patrons got to watch the full lengthReaction three months early.
Join us as Hannah and Abby discover this M. Night Shyamalan suspense classic film, set in Philadelphia. The Sixth Sense is Hannah's first M. Night Shyamalan film. Abby has seen Split before.
Hannah only knew that M. Night Shyamalan set most of his films in our part of the USA and that each film had a unique twist. Abby had seen snippets of The Sixth Sense before, but she had no idea what the twist was supposed to be.
Hannah had seen Bruce Willis in her Die Hard Movie Reaction as well as in The Expendables.
Both Abby and Hannah brought unique perspectives, as Hannah is a Philosophy student while Abby is a Child Psychology student.
Hannah and Tori had watched other films set in Philadelphia before. Check out her and Tori's Rocky Movie Reactions. And for more Pennsylvania check out Abby and Hannah's Groundhog Day Movie Reaction.

Did you guess the twist when you first watched the movie?
It was spoiled for me before I got to see it because everyone talked about it non-stop.
I always start to cry when the woman in the backgroun on the wake says that the little sister has started to show signs of the same illness that kiled the older sister🥺, that´s why she can´t move on she wants to save her sister😭.
The mum probably has mbp (munchousen by proxy)
Cole didn’t think Malcolm was alive. He knew he was a ghost, which is why he ran away on the day they met. They were helping each other the whole time.
Yes. It's when you re-watch it and realize he's just plain scared, but playing it so it can be mistaken for just awkwardness around a psychologist, that you realize how good Osment's acting really is.
It’s also why he suddenly “doesn’t feel like talking” when he meets with Malcolm at his home. His mom is just in the next room getting dinner ready, and he doesn’t want her suddenly wondering who he’s talking to.
i argue cole DIDN'T know malcom was a ghost. malcom didn't show the wounds the other ghosts showed. and the kid would've said " i see dead people... and you're one of them." the kid didn't show any fear around malcom. the temperature didn't drop. there was nothing in the movie that would indicate the kid knew malcom was a ghost.
man, bruce willis made some real good movies in the 90s. he made "pulp fiction," '12 monkeys," "the fifth element," "the 6th sense" and "unbreakable" in 2000. i used to not like willis for his 80s, tough guy persona. but in the 90s he really matured and became a really good actor.
@@cjmacq-vg8umthe temperature DID drop. When he's talking to Malcolm and ask if he could get rid of something he didn't want, he's all bundled up in warm clothes because he's freezing in the house. Watch the movie again. Cole knew from the first meeting that Malcolm was a ghost.
@@cjmacq-vg8um Every scene with Malcolm in it is seen from Malcolm's POV, and ghosts don't know they're dead. Malcolm has different outfits (but all outfits he wore the night he died)... but again, that's from Malcolm's POV. We never see Malcolm from Cole's POV. I believe, given the way Cole sees all the other ghosts, that Cole sees Malcolm just in his shirt the whole time, with the gunshot wound in the back.
He was indeed afraid of Malcolm at first, until he realized Malcolm was one of the nice ones. Cole seeing Malcolm as a ghost makes so much of Cole's behavior make sense, especially the way he doesn't acknowledge Malcolm unless nobody else is around, and even if they're alone, if anybody else is in hearing distance, Cole whispers. And at the end... he was definitely trying to help Malcolm with his advice about talking to his wife, and then the way he said, "I'm not going to see you anymore, am I?" Malcolm thought he just meant that their sessions were at an end, but Cole saw Malcolm being happy during the play, and knew that when the ghosts are happy, then they go away.
I'm glad Abby figured it out early, but I wish she wouldnt wouldn't have let Hannah in on it since she hadn't yet. It's cool to see people figure it out, but it's even better to see the reveal when they don't.
Yeah, the final reveal when you aren't expecting it is AMAZING!!
I think Abby's having heard there was a twist ending ahead of time, along with her being familiar with the professional code of ethics placed on child mental health workers, primed her to be on the lookout for the bread crumbs that led to the big reveal.
@@daybeau7819 Then again, movies almost never portray professionals accurately. As a result, we can only ever tell that they're clues in hindsight.
Cole knew Dr. Crowe was a ghost the whole time; that’s why he was scared of him at first and ran into the church.
Dr. Crowe’s wife slid the piece of furniture in front of the cellar door because she kept locking it and he kept unlocking to go downstairs and work. So eventually she got so freaked out that she just placed a hallway table in front of the door.
Also, she was so depressed and tormented because his spirit was sticking around instead of passing on, and she could sense his presence…and that prevented her from moving on with her life. That’s why,at the end, he told her “things will be different in the morning”. He realized that he had to leave for her sake, and that she would feel better in the morning.
Apparently Cole’s grandmother wanted him to have the bumblebee pendant, and that was why she kept moving it to his drawer.
Thanks so much for these tidbits!
My eyes hurt from crying every time I watch this. Haley Joel Osment is a great actor.
It's funny how in the movie, his character mentions the mean kid at school who brags about starring in a TV commercial. The bully said all the other kid's acting was terrible.😂
Bruce is great in this one, but Haley and Toni really sold it for me. Their mother/son relation, the emotions they go through and how they express them..? Chef’s kiss 👌🏼
When Cole asks Malcom at the beginning, “Are you a good doctor?”, he wasn’t asking if he was a skilled doctor, but more like are you a “good dr” or “evil dr”…explains why Cole wasn’t afraid of him after that.
The twist that is freaking me out is ... Hannah is in the chair on the right side. She's always in the other chair!!!!
Yea, I don't like it. 😂😂
Well done for guessing the twist - most people don't and are freaked out even more than you by the ending.
Re the basement door, remember how Cole said, "they only see what they want to see"? Malcolm's wife has moved a table in front of the door since he died, but that isn't part of Malcolm's "world view" so he doesn't see it: he just thinks the door is puzzlingly hard to open. He only sees it how it really is when he starts seeing things as they really are and realises he's dead, right at the end.
Crazy that's Donnie Wahlberg in the beginning. All the clues are there. He never meets Cole in his office, never talks to anyone but Cole, and all his clothes are a version of what he wore the night he got shot. This is one of the many great films of 1999.
36:00 Nobody was watching Kyra. It looked to me like she would regularly record her puppet shows for her father (his smile when he first starts watching the tape is sad, but not confused, as if he's seen that sort of thing before). That particular time Kyra didn't turn off the camera when her mother came in, so the poisoning was recorded.
HJO: "I see dead people."
Abby and Hannah:
Everyone is dead!
Toni Collette deserved the Oscar nomination she got for this role. I think she did an even better job than Angeline Jolie did in Girl, Interrupted and won. It's funny that you mention Toni's facial expressions, since she says, "look at my face" so many times and absolutely conveys every bit of emotion that not only her character feels, but we're meant to feel.
The movie should have won Best Picture, Best Director, AND Best Screenplay as it was better than American Beauty, which won all 3 but aged horribly, and The Sixth Sense is a classic. Haley Joel Osment should have won Best Supporting Actor over Michael Caine. Caine was great in The Cider House Rules, but Haley Joel Osment's performance was legendary. And yes, Collette was better than Jolie.
Usually “deserved to win an Oscar” comments are dumb, but not this time, with the competition that year.
One of my all-time favorite movies. I'm so jealous of people who are seeing it for the first time, though seeing it while knowing the ending makes it even better.
Producer's note: I was thrilled when the girls said they didn't know what this movie was about, because I've been wanting a reaction to it so much. Thanks for watching with us!
Great reaction! Regarding Easter eggs, when you rewatch the movie, look for the color red...that's the clue. The balloon, the doorknob, etc.
You'll notice that Malcolm never interacts with anything. Except smashing the window at his wife's work. He never enters a room or exits a room through a door that we see. He just appears where he's trying to be. Loosing track of time in-between. He never moves any chair or place he sits. He's wearing the exact same suit the entire time with the only exception being the grey sweater in the hospital with Cole. He never eats. Never sleeps. Besides smashing the door the only objects he interacts with are his notes and tape player in the basement. He never speaks directly to anyone except Cole and his wife who can't see or hear him and yelling at the guy she works with trying to date her. No one ever looks at him. The impression is Cole's mother was talking to him in the house but no one was speaking. He has "supposed" pages of information on this kid immediately from the beginning of the movie out of nowhere before even meeting him. He somehow knows large amounts of information about this kid and his mother literally out of thin air. The movie let's you assume he was passed off to Malcolm from another psychiatrist but there is no mention of another one at all or how Malcolm got the information and from watching Cole acts like and all but says that he's never seen a psychiatrist only his mother. Cole looks for his mother when Malcolm is suddenly sitting there across from his mother when he gets home from school. Because he doesn't want her thinking he's talking to himself. Malcolm has no other patients. He spends all his time with this kid. No one asking who this guy is following a 9yo boy around at school events and a non immediate family member in his hospital room. Which wasn't even ok to do in 1998 for a psychologist. He follows him around like a puppy and imaginary friend. Malcolm's wife never sleeps upstairs or in their own bed ever. She blocks the basement most likely because he keeps opening the door and it freaks her out. Religious objects don't work on the ghosts because they're not demon's (debatable). And the angry ones can't enter his homemade church. Example being the battered wife with slit wrists. Another example being Cole running from Malcolm in the beginning because he's a ghost. But Malcolm is still able to enter the church. Because he's not angry or hostile. So Cole trusts him starting in the church. The ghosts aren't attached to Cole's apartment they're attached to and seeking him out for help. Anything red is associated with the dead. The red balloon. The red staircase. Cole was wearing a red sweater. The red stripe on the poisoned girls tape box. The door handle to Malcolm's basement was red. The woman who died in the bike accidents helmet was red. Cole's homemade church blankets were red. And many more. Basically anytime Malcolm was there it looked like Cole was talking to himself and no one was there. And no one acts like, looks at or speaks to Malcolm. At all. He's places he shouldn't be where no sane adult wouldn't go wtf are you? And why are you here around this kid? Phycologists aren't allowed to do that. Besides not leaving their office for it unless it's an mental health emergency. So he mayyyybe might have been allowed at the hospital. Maybe. If the doctors and mother had signed off on it. He was just there. The movie makes you assume tons of things. That he was hired by Cole's mother or transferred from a already established psychiatrist. That Malcolm and Cole's mother spoke that day at the house and that's why he knows about the parents divorce and other information. That he originally got his information on Cole from another psychiatrists notes. That he was allowed at the hospital by the doctor's and mother and allowed to be there. That no one said js about a guy who is not related to any kid at a school play to just be there standing in the middle of the aisle watching the entire thing without anyone yelling at him or asking who a creepy guy was just standing there watching an entire play distracting everyone and not sitting down. When Cole went to the poisoned girls funeral he was there alone. Then went upstairs to her room. Alone. No one asking who this guy and kid were because Malcolm wasn't really there. Just some kid who's parents were "probably around somewhere" that probably went to school with the sister or the girl who died. Ignoring the kid but an adult like Malcolm would've been questioned as to who he is and why he was there. No one did. Doesn't show Malcolm or Cole getting bus tickets. Although why no one asked why a 9 year old was on a long range bus by himself I don't know. Probably because Malcolm would want to know why they don't see him 🤔🤷🏼♂️. Plot hole. Most people don't notice because the movie is supposed to make you think about the fact that until the ending and reveal that Malcolm died from his gunshot wound. That both Malcolm and us the audience were "seeing what we wanted to see". And making assumptions. Just like Malcolm about the missing information in the movie. Where did Malcolm get his original notes about Cole? We assume from another phycologist and never question it. So did Malcolm. He never interacts with any objects or people. We just assume he does. We assume he was talking to the mother sitting across from him. We assume he's spoken to people at the school and hospital and explained who he was and why someone not related to Cole or a parent was running around a hospital and school with him. We assume everyone at the funeral was just too busy talking and grieving to notice Cole or Malcolm. We assume the wife is cheating because she's sleeping on the couch. And watching the wedding video like they're having problems. We assume that Malcolm sleeps and eats. We assume that he just has a ton of the same dress shirts and clothes. The only exception again being the hospital. Still not sure why that was the only day he wore it. Then wore it in the basement directly after the hospital in the basement doing research. Possibly the day he graduated and it's his college sweater I'm guessing. The audience made large assumptions because it's what we expected to see. Just like Malcolm did. Cole knew Malcolm was dead. He just didn't want to tell him because he probably wouldn't believe him one. Would you? And two it would keep Malcolm from helping him. Probably figured it was better if he figured it out on his own. But ghosts not knowing they're dead doesn't apply to all of them. The poisoned girl obviously knew she was dead. And the biker looks like she knew she was. The hanged people I'm sure knew. And the teacher who died in the fire helping Cole get ready for the play knew and stopped talking and hid from the teacher. Who was probably the one who told Cole about his teacher "stuttering Stanley" since she died while he was a student there. And his own grandmother obviously knew she was dead. So not all ghosts don't know that they're dead. The woman who killed herself didn't and only saw her abusive husband. Or the guy locked in the cupboard in the birthday house. But the rest knew they were dead. I always wanted a Doctor Sleep like sequel. Showing Cole trying to help and his struggles with the angrier ghosts as an adult. And possibly Malcolm visiting him and trying to help with more difficult ghosts. But I doubt it'll ever happen. Sadly.
When Malcolm and Cole first meet, Cole asks if Malcolm is a good doctor, and Malcolm says he USED to be. A double meaning.
🤯 You're so right!
I actually figured out the 'twist' in the scene after Bruce Willis's character got shot. Btw, the reason that Dr. Malcolm Crowe (Bruce Willis) couldn't open the basement door was because he didn't realize there was a table with books blocking the door. Remember after the twist was revealed, the scene shifted to Malcolm trying to open the basement door, but then the camera panned away to further reveal the table with the books blocking the door. Up to that point, Malcolm had only ever seen the door and the doorknob...he never saw the table with the books blocking that door. Also, Cole was aware the entire time that Dr. Malcolm Crowe was dead...that's why he ran away when they first met.
Producer's note: it is one of those movies in which you notice all kinds of details during a rewatch. If this video ends up doing really well in the long run, we may record a rewatch reaction.
The reason they showed the prints of Cole's hands on the table leaving fog marks was to emphasize that Cole hadn't moved. His hands were pressed to the table.
and the table was cold.
Hilarious how Hannah and Abby were pointing out places they know. I love doing that in movies, too. 😂
I like the child psychology perspective.
I"ve never seen anyone figure it out before, before.
The young boy Haley Joel Osment just a few years older stars in a 2003 film called " Second Hand Lions" also staring Michael Caine and Robert Duvall as his old very eccentric uncles living on a run down farm telling him tall tales of their youth. Set in their ways and don't take crap from anyone. The acting is up there with the 6th sense and the story is full of heart.
He's also little Forrest Gump
Watching this movie a second time is like watching an entirely different movie. Every encounter is completely different. It still has the same emotional impact but from a different angle.
Abby is the FIRST person I've ever seen get the twist before the reveal.
Well she did say she saw bits and pieces of it. Maybe in the back of her mind she already knew and never paid attention.
Honestly, I think it is because she knew there was a twist and was looking for it. I had the same experience. When I was about to go see it I was told, Man the twist is incredible. I wish I didn't know beforehand. =(
@@hawke5311 Exactly. That's the reason. She was watching the movie actively looking for hints here and there since she was aware the big plot twistsare Shyamalan's trademark. I've only seen a reactor that pieced it together and she truly had no clue that the movie might even have a plot twist (it was her first time watching a Shyamalan movie).
What strikes me is that the dad just looks incredibly sad. The other family members who saw the video are the ones who look pissed.
I cry throughout this movie everytime I watch it😂 it’s just so good and all the acting is 10/10
Haley Joe Osmet deserved his Oscar for this superb acting.
Yes, and the reason the table is there is because his wife kept getting freaked out when he’d leave it open after going down to his study.
A true masterpiece. Unbreakable is also amazing...
Please watch Unbreakable next! Then Split!
Haley Joel Osment was nominated for an Oscar for this role
...and he should have won!
Your conversations about clues leading to the twist and empathy for the characters was fabulous. Made for extraordinary and wonderfully unique reaction to "The Sixth Sense"!
I didn't learn the plot twist until Malcolm, so excited when Abby deuced the twist early. So exciting watching you delightful Ladies discuss the hints and clues. Excellent job Abby!
♥️ Thanks so much for watching with us!
In the DVD commentary M. Kight said that every time a ghost interacted with the physical world, that item was red. i.e. Cole's sweater when he's attacked in the "dungeon", his fort was red blankets, the box the dead girl pushes towards him, the doorknob to the basement...all red.
So, to put this in context of the moment when this movie dropped, 1999 was an exceptionally phenomenal year for cinema. A lot of films we recognize as classics fall under this calendar year. A month before The Sixth Sense came out, there was another horror movie that was a pop cultural smash at that time that was the talk everywhere and started the found footage genre craze as well as being the very first internet viral hit and marketing campaign which was The Blair Witch Project. The media and perception in real time was forming the narrative that this indie film was rewriting the rules of modern horror and speculating that independent cinema might all go in the direction of meta storytelling where all movies might become a form of found footage and filmed on the cheap. Then out of nowhere The Sixth Sense dropped. Two crazy things happened that opening weekend. 1) social media wasn't the end all, be all thing yet that consumed our lives so things could still be a secret and have a grassroots kind of movement on the downlow like this film and a twist ending that instantly was blowing all and everybody's mind hole. The quick reverberation from opening night on a Friday to Monday morning at work flash flood rollout that was the collective conversation about Sixth sense was everywhere. We were all talking about it yet couldn't really say anything yet everyone respected this movie so much that nobody without every saying it outloud knew to not give away the ending and preserve the experience for the next newbies who hadn't seen it. The second thing 2) was the amount of immediate repeat multiple viewings we all compulsively had to do and did right after the first time seeing it. I saw it four times in the theatre. But, I think literally everyone I knew and worked with and went to school with had seen it at least a minimal two times. Because as soon as the twist happens and you realize how masterful M. Night has pulled the rug out from under us, we all instantly wanted to go back and watch it again to see if it added up and how we were fooled scene by scene. So, the Sixth Sense was the unique film going experience where it was kind of a required two time mandatory sit down movie. The first being the Blamo! effect getting hit with it the initial time and then the very rewarding experience of the follow up viewing when you keep excitedly pointing at the screen and different moments seeing just how well and how many moments big and small the director and movie pulled the wool over our eyes. Impressively, it holds up logically and has no plot holes or cheats. It's an air tight screenplay and iron clad narratively that passes any and all scrutiny. This is how M. Night became the twist guy. I see talented people.
i mean it was no '97 but it was a good year
I see your 1999, and raise with 1994
This is a great movie to watch multiple times. Knowing the ending, it's a totally different movie. You find new clues in almost every scene that you didn't catch before.
Guy in the bathroom with gun is Donnie Wahlburg in his first acting role.
The door to the basement wasn't locked, it was blocked. She put his stuff in the basement. He went to get to it but didn't see the table in front of the door because it was blocked. The wife was always a little nervous about going to the basement. So imagine he kept going down there and she kept finding the door open when she had closed it. So, she put a table there so it wouldn't open. About the tape where he heard the voice in Spanish. It is called EVP - electronic voice phenomenon(?). If you have ever seen a ghost hunter show, the investigator asks questions while recording and waits a while then asks another and waits. When played back, things they couldn't hear with their own ears got picked up by the recorder. Just like the ghosts that had always been attracted to the boy (a born medium) showed up as a glimmer of light in photos even though nothing was noticed by the photographer taking the photo. Someone already addressed that the boy always knew that Cole was a ghost and that's why he ran from him at 1st and didn't want to interact with him. But by finding out it wasn't scary after a while to talk to Malcolm's ghost, it gave him confidence to attempt it with the scarier ones. But I have never seen a reaction video when someone realized that Malcolm was dead before the reveal when his wife dropped the ring. I don't feel that the wife was dating the co-worker (her employee or subordinate). She wasn't ready. She was still grieving. But he (co-worker) wanted to help her get over her grief and move on.
about the locked basement door, he never saw that there were books blocking the door every time he tried to open it (they only see what they wanna see)
The color red appears when ghosts other than Malcolm appear. The open cabinets have a bright red bottle, the scene where the woman with slashes there is a red hugh in the bedroom, the party balloon was red, the mother wore red to the funeral.
I was excited to see someone’s first reaction to this film. When I saw you two laughing then immediately shift to being nervous, I knew I was in the right place.
Producer's note: Thanks for your kind words.
Filming videos with Abby and Hannah is an incredibly fun experience every time. A whole lot more awesome stuff is coming to our channel soon. 😻
The imprint on the table shows that Cole didnt move in the kitchen because he was terrified and didnt open the cupboard doors.
thank you. no one ever understands this.
Cole knew the whole time that he was dead. That's why he was running away from him in the beginning, to get to the church, because he thought it was a sanctuary from ghosts.
He sees only what he wants to see. He keeps trying to open that door, but it's blocked because of that table. So, why is the table there in the first place? I think his wife got tired of seeing it mysteriously opened, so she blocked it. Though we never see him go in there, I think that was his home office. That's probably where he was at when he listened to the recording of the voice in the background, BEFORE she finally blocked it.
The one hole is that Malcolm supposedly teaches Cole it’s OK to talk to dead people. But he’s been talking to at least two dead people already - Malcolm of course, and his grandma. So he knows sometimes at least dead people aren’t scary and want to talk.
I think the point is that even the ones that seem scary are okay to talk to as well since Cole hides from the ones that died more gruesomely when they really need his help.
When this movie came out, I saw an interview with the writer/director. He said that he used the color red (balloon/murderous Mom's dress, etc) to show the presence of evil/death in the movie. His big fear was that he made the ending TOO OBVIOUS and everyone would get it halfway through the movie! I, like most people, was completely blindsided and heartbroken at the end.
6:54 "I thought it was going to be hot." -abby
scarred by home alone. 🏠
I think the moist palm print on the table showed that his hands never left the table while she left and came back after just a few moments and found all the doors had been opened in just those few moments. So who then did open them is the question?
Probably Neddy's wife.
This movie was a masterpiece. The acting, the storyline, the whole thing just amazing. The twist was EPIC! I’ve never known anyone to figure out the twist like you did.
It helped that at least one of them knew Shyamalan was famous for twists.
This movie was a very big part of why M. Night kept getting to make movies for so long after he started making flops. People were convinced that the person who made *this* must have just been having a string of bad luck.
I love reactions to this movie. But, this reaction was unique... I kept saying "Snap! She's too smart! She's going to figure it out!" And she did. Lol But I was still thoroughly entertained... and impressed. Now... on to STIR OF ECHOES.
Abby was working it out from the “distant” scenes of Malcolm and his wife - you can see her thinking it.
Can we just talk about how great Malcolm's "mind-reading" game was? Even when he guessed wrong, he got useful information from Cole.
Nice call Abby. I noticed no one interacted with the Willis character throughout the story but at the end it all made sense. You guys do a good job.
You figured out the twist early.
But you still enjoyed the film.
This is top 3 on my all time list.
Well done, ladies.
Having already seen bits of it gave one a lead and pop culture references helped.
thank you!!! i’m so glad you enjoyed as much as we did ◡̈
This is the best reaction and way to go ably for figuring the plot twist before the seeing ending ,well done Alby
I subscribed. I enjoy your reactions. Ive conversed with the young lady on the right in the comments in another reaction because she reminds me so much of my sister who passed, thank you ❤
so happy to bring you memories of your sister ❤ thanks for watching!
Kudos to figuring out the twist before it happened. You are the first reaction I've seen to this movie that has done that! 👏👏
That’s the girl from the OC
I've watched a LOT of reactions to this, and you figured it out WAY sooner than anybody else! Crazy!
Cole always knew Malcolm was a ghost He knows who are the ghost are when he sees them they just don't know their ghost
I sill don't recognize Donny Walberg as Vincent even though I know it is him. Super fantastic acting Donny!!!
Cole always saw Malcolms wounds. When we see Malcolm, we're seeing what Malcolm is seeing. Hes not seeing that hes dead.
And she couldn't open the doors of the basement because he couldn't see that she had a table full of books in front of the door
Should also try "shawshank redemption " and "the green mile". Two of the best movies ever made.
This is the first reaction I’ve seen that someone cracked the case
All ghost have one thing in common. Regret. Malcolm regretted he couldn't help his first patient and this time he was determine to help the boy. Still not knowing he is dead and the boy finally got the help he needed and ready to let Malcolm go. By revealing on how he can communicate with his wife.
This is the first time I have seen you guys - but certainly not the last. I love your commentary and how you interact with one another. My favorite parts: Hannah commenting on Toni Collette's facial expressions and me thinking "Just wait" and watching Abby almost figure it out three times before you actually got there.
In all of M. Night’s movies, the color red is “the bad color.”
Specifically in this movie 🎈
Red is a visual cue that something ominous is about to happen. Like a bad omen.

So impressed you figured it out so fast. But a couple of your comments stood out to me. From watching people react to this movie, I think I may have picked up a couple of things about it.
When you said you weren't sure if Cole knew Malcolm is dead, I'm pretty sure he did know he was. I think that's why he was running in the beginning and why he ran into the church, because he knew Malcolm was following him, he knew he was dead, and it scared him. I think he hoped the church would be a sanctuary and the ghost wouldn't follow him in there. And I think when Cole said, "I'm going to see you again, aren't I?", he said that because he dreaded seeing him again because he knew he was dead.
And when you said, "Is Kira filming this?" I got the impression you might have thought she knew she was being poisoned and she videoed it for proof, but that's not how I see it. I don't think Kira knew what her mother was doing to her. I think she was making a video of her own puppet show just for fun, and when she heard her mom coming, she quickly moved the puppet stage back, but didn't have time to turn off the camera. She rushed back to bed, probably because the mom wanted her to stay in bed all the time. I think it was just dumb luck the camera happened to capture the poisoning.
One aspect of the movie that is worth a rewatch for, is that every major clue is red. When you rewatch it, check for red objects.
I both hate and love that y'all figured it out before the end. 90s, best decade for movies. Arguably.
I figured it out in the theater after the "they don't know they're dead" scene, and the funny thing is it in no way dimmed my appreciation for the movie. It just meant you could see how clever it was being in real time. I've always thought it was brilliant.
I think because people know now the movie has a big twist so if you're looking for it from the start and not just watching it for enjoyment it's possible to catch. I think the people who don't catch it have a more enjoyable reveal at the end. Movies are entertainment not a contest.
70s. Godfather, Alien, Star Wars, Jaws, Apocalypse Now, Taxi Driver, One Flew Over the Cookoo's Next, Rocky, Patton, Chinatown, The Deer Hunter, Close Encounters... I could go on...
All M night movies should be watched! The Mark Wahlberg one, Signs, the village, and in order unbreakable, split, Mr Glass!
A classic, Hitchcock would've approved.
Great movie, Still can't believe Donnie Wahlberg played Vincent.
You two should show this to Toy and Tori, so we can watch you trying to hold back the smirks and gasps of the things you will notice on your first rewatch. :)
Hey guys I really enjoyed your reaction to this movie. You mentioned HJO is a great kid actor, if you wanna see another great kid actor in his first movie you gotta check out Jojo Rabbit. It's a dark comedy about the end of WW2 when the main character, a 10 yr old boy, has an imaginary friend who happens to be Adolf Hitler. It is a GREAT movie and you will love the acting of the kids in the movie, I promise you that. Anyway, once again, great reaction.
Cole knew the whole time
Somewhere in the middle of the video, half of my attention was focused not on the reaction, but on the cat: whether he would spend the whole time on his lap or not.🙂
Shamalan is Indian, and sticking in the Indian engaged couple was a funny touch. They may be an arranged or semi-arranged marriage, as he's "do you have anything cheaper?" and she's "does he have wavy brown hair?" Neither is all that committed to the relationship, it seems...
I've seen so many people react to this movie and Abby is the first person I've seen put it all together this early. Most people get it when the rings hits the floor, the intended reveal, but getting it this early is impressive. I wonder, though, if knowing there would be a twist helped your brain look for one. I'd never know how early I'd get it because even in the early days of the internet, people were quick to spoil something.
It’s called EVP when Bruce is character hears in the voice recorder
He couldn't open the basement door because there was something in front of it. He couldn't see it because he didn't want to. When you rewatch it, and you will, look for the color red. Whenever you see it, something supernatural is happening. You would probably like the movie, The Uninvited.
The easter eggs were all the red items.. his wife's red blanket, the red door knob to the basement, the red doors on the church, the red napkin at the table, the mother that murdered her daughter had a red dress on and there were red roses.. all were clues.. oh and Cole's red sweater that he wore to the birthday party and the red balloon. also the red lettering on the notes the mother found in Cole's room .. there might be more but that's all I can think of.
You girls are the only reacters that figured it out before the ending lol
Nice catch,you are the only one who suspected the twist before it was shown at the ends so hats off to you on that one,I don't rememner if I figured it out or not when I first saw it. This movie is so amazing and for the record ghosts are real it's just not everyone can see or feel them...as a person who was like this kid is when I was a child I can understand his fear but unlike him I had to figure out the listening to their stories and they will go away on my own. Ghosts can not harm you though and it doesn't always get cold when they are around. any way grate reaction and glad you liked the movie. You should check out Unbrakable which is the one he did after this and signs those to me other than this one are his best done movies.
Thanks so much for watching with us!
On the tape, Bruce says it's cold because that Spanish speaking ghost was in the room. Cole and Vincent Grey (Donnie Wahlberg of New Kids on the Block/Blue Bloods TV show) both saw dead people. Bruce couldn't help Vincent who eventually shot and killed Bruce.
Bruce has issues at thenasement door because it is blocked, but it always cut to him in the basement. Cole always knew he was dead, which is why he stole the icon from the church after they met. And why he ssid, "You're nice, but you can't help me." The wife wasn't dating to co-worker. He was trying to date her. It's why he eas hesitant leaving the house when Bruce called him cheesedick. And the awkwardness when they hugged after she gave him a gift.
The director used red to denote the supernatural. The red basement doorknob, red balloon, when Bruce sees his wife sleeping in bed abd she shivers abd oulls her red shawl around her (because he's a ghost and the temperature dropped), the red blanket fort, the red on the taie recorder dial only at the highest volunes when he could hear the voices (EVP - Electronic Voice Phenomenon).
Bruce only wears the clothes he wore the day he died. So sometimes it's the suit ir the sweatshirt he put on, but it's akways the same shirt.
Puking girl is Mischa Barton, later of The OC. Note her mother was wearing red.
So much for the hate watching the wedding tape theory. LOL Most reactors don't figure out the twist.
I saw it this in the theater. Halfway through my friend says, "Oh@" She then wrote something on her ticket. Afterwards she showed me. It said, "Bruce is dead."
"The puking girl!" lol. Still good reaction yeah guys!
You two would like the deleted scene with the old man. (I won't spoil with details.) It is why Malcolm gets the idea that Cole should try helping the ghosts.
Very good, not many at all figure it out before the end. Bravo.🎉
I'd also suggest Shyamalan's _Signs_ - another of his best with great acting from both kids and adults who are working through grief against a background of unusual events.
After the success of the sixth sense m night could make any movie he wanted he wanted to do his superhero movie UNBREAKABLE the studio never wanted that for him they wanted the sixth sense all over again so the publicity for UNBREAKABLE was not good, everyone thought it was just another creepy m night movie.
Some people figure it out because Bruce Willis has the same wardrobe for the whole movie.
Notice the pop of reds that are used throughout the movie
Shymalan referenced the fact that the mom of the dead girl had a condition
' Munchausen syndrome by proxy'
Clever ...
Look for the color red throughout the movie. Also note that Willis never touches anything. Never opens/closes any door.
Or uses a car. Do you think a doctor in the US would use public transportation to go with a child patient to a funeral (or anywhere else) ?
"Split" was the middle chapter of a trilogy. If you've seen that one, you should also watch "Unbreakable" and "Glass," parts 1 and 3.
How did the recorder pick up the ghost's voice = That is something that ghosthunters are always looking for. Many people believe that recording devices can sometimes pick up ghostly voices or sounds, known as EVPs (Electronic Voice Phenomena), but they are very faint, so it's difficult to pick them out of background noise - which, by the way, is what makes other people believe EVPs are not real and that it is just background noise, and the listeners are assigning word forms to the noise. So when Malcolm hears the voice speaking Spanish on the tape, that was an EVP recording. The suggestion is that when he left the room during the session with Vincent, he left the recorder running, and it picked up the voice of the ghost that appeared to Vincent while the boy was alone.
The way the story worked is Malcolm died the night Vincent shot him, but he couldn't move on because he had unresolved regrets about Vincent and also about something he hadn't said to his wife (about her being second to his job). Cole knew Malcolm was a ghost, because he always recognized a ghost. That's why he was so scared all the time. Malcolm's wife was depressed because her husband had died. Her co-worker/employee was attracted to her and also concerned about her state of mind. He definitely wanted to get together with her, but she could not move on because Malcolm hadn't moved on. He was haunting their house, and thus haunting her, too. When he helped Cole and told her that he loved her, he could finally pass on. At the end, when he realized the truth, he said goodbye and told her that everything would be different in the morning. I think he meant she would finally be able to start healing from her grief.
The implication is that, if he never realized the truth and/or never resolved the regrets that obsessed him, he would never have moved on. He'd haunt that house forever.
Also, the movie never addresses how the ghosts find Cole. It's obvious about the ghosts in his apartment and school building. They're already there for him to see. And Grandma's ghost can find him because they are family. But how did Malcolm find him? How did the poisoned girl find him? We might imagine that, because he can see ghosts, they can see or sense him, too. I once saw a commenter on another reaction to this movie explain it well - something to the effect of, if you were stuck in some horrible situation, and nobody could see or hear you, and nobody reacted to you in any way, and suddenly someone could see and hear you, might that not be like a shining beacon cutting through a fog, and wouldn't you do whatever you could to communicate with that person? So maybe Cole's receptiveness was like something visible or sensory to the ghosts, and they just found him. Maybe even they didn't know how. Malcolm didn't seem to.
Also, when M. Night wrote this movie, he got the inspiration from pretty the same concept of the twist ending of the person and the audience not knowing they are dead from a Are You Afraid of The Dark? episode. A nickelodeon canadian made tv show about kids telling creepy stories around a campfire but you only see the campfire kids at the beginning and end of the story. They really had some good ones. But there were tons so some okay and boring ones too. Not bad for a kids 20 min runtime show. They had some 3 parters as well. If you youtube " Are You Afraid of The Dark? | The Tale of the Dream Girl | Full Episode " you will find the episode.
*_If you liked this M. Night Shyamalan classic, you should check out Unbreakable (2000)_*
Thanks for the recommendation!
He cant get into his office under the stairs because she blocked it with the buffet table and books because she never wants to look in their, he could not see it because he didn't know he was dead he just thought she had locked it and hid the key because she didnt want him to work
Watch it again and look for the color red. Everything red was removed unless it was a focus point for the movie.
Also, I've always thought people should record the re-watch because it's a completely different movie if you are looking for the easter eggs.
