Hey all just fyi, we bleeped out words like "k*ds and ch*ld" in this video, because we wanted to make sure YT wouldnt hit us with the COPPA flag for "ch*ld endangerment", which has happened with all of our Harry Potter videos. Luckily this video got through that algorithm clean.
Cinebinge! Another good movie with this unfinished adult is Secondhand Lions. And I'm once again attempting to get you to watch Pitch Black, with Vin deisel
@@jhibbitt2896 not so much that, if you recall about 2 years ago there was a whole issue of ch*ld p**nography hidden in the comments of videos tailored to k*ds, a lot of predators hanging around. as a response to that, and with the COPPA law passing, YT had to implement an AI detection system that auto turns off the comment, and suppresses any video that may contain content related to ch*ld endangerment. Unfortunately the system doesnt take context into account and is very flawed, so it just looks for any video with young actors and words like ch*ldren and flag it. regardless if its a movie or not.
@SuperPunch76 I hadn't seen it till recently and had NO idea about the plot twist. How I went 23 years without knowing is beyond me but all I knew was the iconic quote
@@-M0LE Agreed 100%. Haley Joel Osment's acting is obviously great but that scene would not work if Toni Collette's acting wasn't incredible as well. Such a hard and beautiful scene to play.
So fun to watch this movie with people who didn’t know the twist. George’s “what!?!” was perfect! That twist is almost as famous as “I’m your father” .
I’m 55 and have seen thousands of movies … that moment, when I realized he had been dead the whole movie is the most memorable scene of any movie I’ve ever seen. Time stopped. I had shivers! I started playing back all the clues that were dropped over the course of the movie. Absolutely the best scene of all time.
I saw it coming 15 minutes before it happened. There was a short play on UK TV in the early 70s where a young couple crashed their car and found a house which seemed to have ghosts in it. Eventually the the guy went back to the car and found their dead bodies. They were the ghosts and the people in the house were alive.
I'd heard about it before seeing the movie cos I was only 14 when it came out so by the time I did it wasn't a shocking twist but somehow it still had a massive impact after sitting getting immersed in the story. I envy people who get to see it not knowing about the twist.
George likes to guess especially, so I was worried he'd see it, especially when he gave a little gasp of realization, but it was only about his old patient seeing them too. I think most people that catch it, often do so when Joel stares at Bruce Willis and says "all the time", so when I saw they didn't include that line in the edit, I figured we could be home free :)
Kyra’s mother had Munchausen syndrome by proxy, that’s why she poisoned Kyra. It’s important that Cole helped because she was beginning to make the other daughter sick. You can hear people at the funeral murmuring about the other daughter in the beginning of the scene.
@@lev170 There is never any indication whether she is biological or stepmother, but if she is a stepmom then there are no pictures of the children with their biological mom, which would be a bit odd.
@@lev170 no I think she was Kyra's biological mother, because like the other user said, there were no other pictures of Kyra with any other woman in any of the family photos. If she was the stepmother, then surely there would've been photos of Kyra's biological mother in the house. Since there are no photos of any other woman, I do think she was Kyra's biological mother.
One of the things I love most about the scene in the car is that the entire story about coming to see Toni Colette dance is something that the grandmother could easily have told Cole while she was still alive. But telling him the answer to the question that Toni Colette had asked the grandmother at her grave - THATS the proof that the grandmother told him that after she was dead.
The director was concerned about the "I see dead people" scene, because it gave it all away right there, and yet the twist caught most people. I thought it was such a cool concept. To have Bruce Willis dead from the start of the movie made hiding the plot twist seamless. Such an awesome way to write and direct a thriller.
@Kristopher Chavez I think it's because when you know the twist, it seems super obvious that that scene is giving it away and if the viewer is eagle-eyed and really paying attention, yeah, they can get the idea there. But of course, most people don't watch movies being 100% focused on spotting clues, so it worked fine.
I think they were relatively safe. Given the hints about ghost activity and movies rarely having a dead main character - I think many people would have forgotten the shooting at the start of the movie and just moved into a 'he got better'. . . So the seeing dead people line is just confirming what the audience expects and leaves them wondering how Bruce Willis will help the kid overcome the scary ghosts. Probably all the more so since all the ghost activity and appearances tend to be scary. . . Yet Bruce's scenes are calm. . .
@Kristopher Chavez I'm one of those who never got the twist until it was explained to me. Of course I understood Cole saw dead people. But I was so invested in Malcolm as Cole's doctor that I couldn't (or wouldn't) see that Cole saw Malcolm only as a dead man.
What the mother (?) who killed the little girl did (and was doing to the sister) is called Munchausen syndrome by proxy, where a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under their care Also the doctor in one scene (Dr.Hill) was played by the writer/director M. Night Shyamalan. He appears in a lot of his movies in small parts.
Either that, or it was a wife that didn't want the husband to leave her. So, they pull together and stay together for the sick kid. The husband was on to her very, very quickly in the scene. It makes we feel like he had an epiphany.
George mentioned that he had heard of people doing that to themselves for attention. That version is know simply as Munchausen Syndrom. When someone does it to someone else (usually their child or disabled person for whom they are responsible) "by proxy" is added.
Yep. I don't know if it's been pointed out but you hear a couple people talking at the funeral and one says, "and now the younger one is starting to get sick..." implying that the mother was starting to do it to the girl's younger sister, the little girl she had Cole give the finger puppet to.
There was a nurse in this country (UK) who had this syndrome - where she killed a lot of her child patients so that she could wallow in the drama the families were going through - hard to forget that bitch, I believe her name was Beverly Alet (not sure of spelling), I believe it happened in the eighties…..
Honestly, this movie still holds up, even after you know all the twists, just cause the performances and dramatic elements are done so well. Like, it has this famous twist ending, which is brilliant, but it wouldn't have nearly the effect it does without all the great emotional buildup that came before. Yes, it's a spooky movie with a twist ending, but at its heart it's a story about real human emotion and connection, and that's what really makes it work, and what I remember most from it isn't the scary ghosts or even "Bruce Willis was dead the whole time!" but scenes like the one in the car at the end, where we just see a mother and son desperately trying--and finally succeeding--at connecting with and understanding each other.
Agreed. I watched it for the first time when I was around 12. I'll be 33 in 5 days and I've watched it lots of times since then. I still enjoy it every time, simply because of how well-made it is and the incredible acting.
I actually got chills and tears just by watching them react to this movie, even knowing it almost by heart. It's a great emotional journey. The car scene and malcom's speech to his wife always get me.
When this movie came out a lot of people watched it and then immediately got in line to buy tickets to watch it again to catch all the various references. When I saw it the entire audience gave a huge reaction when they figured out that Bruce Willis had been dead the whole time. It was fantastic to share that group experience.
31:25 "Honestly, though, I hope he won a bunch of accolades for this..." He did. He was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, and he won the Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild awards in the same category. He also won many other less prestigious awards.
I saw this in the theater on opening night. It was one of the most satisfying reveals I’ve ever experienced. The audible gasps from the audience as the reveal montage played were so loud. And the sounds of crying toward the end were equally loud. It’s too bad you didn’t see it at that time. Because it’s a genuine treat to be apart of cinematic history.I rarely classify films as masterpieces because it’s often a term that’s overused and undeserved. However, The Sixth Sense is a true masterpiece. Toni Collette and Haley Joel Osment should have won Academy Awards for their respective performances.
The over all story-line nearer towards the end where the Dr. helps Cole to 'embrace' his gift by facing his fears & putting himself out there to see if 'listening' to the ghosts would be of any benefit to them. 'Such a brilliantly written story, especially to see Cole rise above his situation & work through his trauma & deal with his gift. TY for both your honest reactions! 😆
This is the last horror movie where the hype matched the quality. That twist is one of the best of all time. What makes it so great is that the movie doesn’t cheat. The twist is earned.
I don’t blame Simone for cursing out George-when she’s so terrified and upset and he jokes about “the man” behind her,that’s going too far,that’s kind of sadistic.
Haley Joel Osment truly is an amazing actor. I guess he, like many child stars, have had a hard time following up the early success. Not mainly because they’re bad actors, but the viewers just got used to their younger persona. His performances in The Sixth Sense, Pay it forward and A.I. are just fenomenal for a 11-13 yo.
I got it when the ring dropped. I remember in the cinema, there were a few gasps then, and a bunch more about 10 seconds later. Shyamalan claims he was deathly afraid that everyone would get it in the 'I see dead people' scene, notably at the part when Cole tells Bruce that 'they don't even know they're dead'. A lot of people get to the point of not being able to handle the scariness anymore right at the point where it begins to calm down again, where the girl gets into his tent-fort. Don't forget that Cole has a job that many kids have wanted. The little guy is a Ghostbuster!
Watching this movie in the theater, not knowing anything about it, was one of my most memorable experiences. The scary parts were extra scary especially when I was closer to the screen than I preferred and then that twist reveal at the end... absolutely mind blowing!
George, your comment on the guy behind you says it's all right was gold. Died laughing. Simone, your reaction to horror films ensures you are going to have MANY more requests for such films, I'm sorry to say! Wonderful reaction! So glad nobody figured it out beforehand.
I as searching for a comment about what George said to scare Simone. My reaction was completely different from yours. I thought George was mean and an asshole for saying that there was someone behind Simone.
@@jp3813 no thank you. I'll continue to expose assholery when I see it, even if it's from a comedian. George crossed the line with that "joke" in my opinion.
I'm working backward through the archive, but if y'all knew Simone was this way about horror, then that was sick to recommend this haha. Then again, it's shameful to have a movie channel and not have seen this, so I guess well done?
Hard to believe that the gun man used to be singing "hanging tough" with the new kids on the block, jesus christ he was bone chilling in this 😲😨😨😢 peace to yas
I was watching these two analyze what they thought they knew was going on and smiling with delight. I felt powerful 😁...Im rubbing my hands together like a mad scientist waiting for the look on their Sixth Sense virgin faces.
So basically you're like if Cole was a jerk. You know that they're not seeing the big picture (like dead people) but you enjoy watching them fumble along until they finally put it all together. Yeah, we're all kind of jerks that way. "No, Soylent Green is *not* people. Trust me, I've seen the movie and Soylent Green is totally not people." (And much quiet snickering ensues.)
@@BigJohnLXV it might be part of the whole “they see what they want to see” so it might not actually work. He could be basing it off of memory. But let me go back and check on the suit coz I think he wears it all, but different layers etc.
I'm shocked that you've both lived this long without getting spoiled on this. It's probably the most famous twist in all of film. It was fun to watch your realizations.
My dad when I showed him this movie, watched it a 2nd time immediately afterwards. just so he could pick up on all the signs and clues that Bruce Willis character was a ghost. Such a masterful story and film.
I can't believe you made it this far in life without having this spoiled. This was far and away the best of his movies, but Unbreakable, Split, and Glass were also very good. I liked The Lady in the Water, but not many others did. Signs was okay, but had a stupid plot device, and The Village was meh. Neither of of you commented (on the RUclips version at least) the guy at the beginning (mark Wahlburg's brother Donnie), and Cole both had a white spot of hair. When I was about 6, I was walking across a park where some guys were playing baseball. One of them got a huge hit and I took a baseball to the base of the skull, halfway between my spine and my ear. My hair in that spot came in white for about 25 years. It was still white when I met my wife, the year this movie came out. She commented on it often. Since then, it got progressively darker, and is now barely lighter than the dark brown of the rest of remaining hair. We went to this in the theater a few times. The second was to see all the clues we missed the first time. The rest were to listen to the gasps from the ground as they started to get it. I worked it out when his ring hit the floor. Someone got it before me and I think their reaction jump-started mine. My wife got a few seconds after. The rest of the theater got it over the next ten seconds in a sort of wave. It was really cool to be there for that, and to sort of see it again. The mother of the girl had Munchhausen by Proxy. It's a rare issue, but common enough to be a trope. A parent will make sure to keep someone near them sick for the attention and/or financial gain (go fund me). We called that in the theater when we saw the mother wore red to the wake. Did you catch the part where a guest said the younger sister was starting to get sick too. That was the dead girl's mission. Save her sister.
Signs is actually my favorite after Sixth Sense despite what I assume you view as the hokey plot device (which, if it's the same thing I'm thinking of, I agree could have been better). Everything came together at the end seemlessly because there are no coincidences... I remember reading a reviewer who complained that it "ruined" all the characters when you found out the reason they were the way they were was because of the ending, but that was actually the whole point of the movie--that everything serves a purpose and there are no coincidences ever. As an editor, there's nothing in there that they could cut because all of it serves an important piece in the story.
One of the best 6th sense reactions I've seen, both of you completely fooled, just as I was on my first viewing. Now re-watch the movie as a reaction because the second time you spot the scenes of people together not talking are because the living don't talk to the dead. Also the colour red is used when there is supernatural activity, red tent red door handle, red balloon etc. Lucky for me I had good friends who saw the movie and didn't spoil it for me and told me just to get to the cinema and watch it. For me the audience silence at the end except some crying when the twist is revealed, was an atmosphere I've never since experienced walking out the cinema.
The part where he tells his mother that his grandmother visits him, and what she said to him about watching his mother dance, and telling her the answer to her question is "yes," well. . . it makes me bawl like a goddam baby every time. And I'm a 51 year old man.
I like how the first half of the movie is more focused on Malcolm's side, and then after we find out whats going on with Cole it focuses more on his side of the story. Great reaction as always. I love this movie. The "bike wreck" scene in the car makes me cry every. Single. Time. No matter how many times Ive seen it.
This movie was wildly popular when it came out in 1999. It was before social media and the twist was mostly a kept secret because it was so impactful, people didn't want to spoil it for others who hadn't seen it yet. It made M. Knight Shyamalan's career.
Toni Collette was Oscar nominated for her role in this film. After The Sixth Sense, Haley Joel Osment was hired by Steven Spielberg for his 2001 film A.I. with Jude Law. You are in for a thrill ride with that movie - it runs about 3 hours long, but worth it.
Good reaction. One thing, the issue of medical professionals often misdiagnosing family members isn't a "trope", it is merely a reality in many cases. The reason is simple; the objectivity required to make sound judgments is gone for many people when dealing with one's own family. We are often most bias with the people who are closest to us. Also medical professionals aren't immune to both projection and denial when strong emotional stakes are on the line.
Haley Joel Osment was phenomenal in this film. I loved him in Artificial Intelligence, a Stanley Kubrick / Steven Spielberg film. He plays a robot boy. It does have this fantastical, Pinocchio-style story too. Highly recommend.
One of the biggest jump scares I've ever had is when that ghost walks past the bathroom while Cole is doing his business. So simple, yet so effective. The two women in front of me in the theater were hyperventilating for about two minutes after that. 😄 Simone, I'm really sorry to say this, but you getting freaked out is quality entertainment. 😊 If you guys haven't seen these, I recommend Se7en and The Mist - two of the most messed up movie endings ever. Love you guys!!
27:26 it's called Munchausens By Proxy. It's where someone keeps another person/child sick so they can "nurse them" and that person/child will forever be dependent on them as a caregiver. Munchausens is where it's a person making themselves sick to keep people around/have a SO/parent take care of them.
Still laughing, but satisfied. It was THE movie with THE twist, back when there was no internet to spoil it. Very few even spoiled it after they saw it, so most went in blind. I'm laughing because just enough time has passed that people are rediscovering this movie WITHOUT knowing the twist. I even watched someone recently seeing SW for the first time and didn't know the mega twist in the middle movie. And, yes, the acting was on point, Bruce playing against type, Haley was brilliant as the kid. And perhaps the scene stealer, Toni, in that car scene. She 100% sold it. I remember a scene in Sleepers where De Niro did a similar thing with next to no dialogue in a scene when the truth is revealed to him. Scarlett J in one particular moment in Lost in Translation. Toni was already big here in Australia, but this made Hollywood sit up and pay attention, and the rest is history (she's had a stellar career ever since). Awesome stuff, and thanks for the share. Love how you work together. A dynamic duo.
27:22 Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSBP) is a mental health problem in which a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under his or her care, such as a child, an elderly adult, or a person who has a disability.
That has nothing to do with Münchhausen syndrome. Münchhausen syndrome is a psychological disorder where someone pretends to be ill or deliberately causes produces symptoms of illness in themselves, with the goal of assuming the "sick role", to get people to take care of them and thus gaining attention. Often relapsing soon after recovery due to loss attention given. Named after the classic character Münchhausen, who set out to become the center of attention by telling fantastical stories of his adventures, which were all made up. The woman in the movie is likely suffering from caregiver resentment in the final stage. Not sure if the terminology actually changes one's you are actually willing to commit homicide.
@@johnkominar8417 I considered that, but it is still too far off, as the motivation switches from appearing needy in order to get attention to getting rid of someone in order to take a burden of oneself. I may however not remember the movie correctly, so I don't recall if she was the reason of the child's illness or if she just poisoned her after she feel sick due to natural causes. Anyway I suppose there is or should be another term for this, when someone is doing it to another person as Münchhausen syndrome is supposed to be self-inflicted with the intend to gather attention.
“Munchausen syndrome by proxy is a mental health problem in which a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under his or her care, such as a child, an elderly person, or a person with a disability. Because vulnerable people are the victim. MSBP is a form of child abuse or elder abuse.” HealthLink British Columbia It fits, and the victims do sometimes die.
More than the actors getting awards when this first came out, but I hope they all get residuals every single time this film is watched! Thank you for a great reaction review!❤❤❤❤
Great reaction Simone and George. It's fascinating to see people are so concerned for Haley Joel Osmith as a kid in the presence of a ghost they completely bypass the fact that Bruce Willis is one of the ghosts he's seeing. Since Bruce Willis is so friendly and helpful and we perceive usually ghosts to be scary and foreboding. So it leads to the viewer ignoring many of the subtle hints that are being laid throughout the movie.
The final scene with Cole and his mom in the car always gets me to cry. Y'all should watch another M. Night Shyamalan movie, Signs. You'll find some emotional scenes in that one too.
If you enjoyed Haley’s performance in this, you really need to watch “Pay It Forward”. Not only is his performance great in it, the movie would be a great one for a reaction.
The unfinished adult got a best supporting actor Oscar nomination so, yep, accolades. And he deserved it. Gotta be the dream getting such a high accolade when you're that young - the problem is where you go from there, I mean he's arguably peaked in his teenage years, everything else must feel like a bit of a downer.
HJO is in the fun comedy tv show 'Teachers' and puts in a good shift. A fun show to watch if you can find it, especially if there's an educator in your life.
Competitive year too! He was going up against Michael Caine (The Cider House Rules), Tom Cruise (Magnolia), Michael Clarke Duncan (The Green Mile), and Jude Law (The Talented Mr. Ripley) for that Oscar. I think Caine won but damn so much talent in a single category for a single year. Lol
Are you ready for another plot twist? The actor who played Vincent Grey in The Sixth Sense is the same actor who played Carwood Lipton in Band of Brothers--none other than Donnie Wahlberg. He lost 43 pounds in just a few weeks to play the role of Vincent in this movie.
This is certainly MNS's best movie; nothing else can compare! Watching the behind the scenes/additional commentary is also worth a watch in your spare time.
A really great scared & fun reaction to a really great film, Simone & George! 🥰 All the actors in this were excellent, including all the other child actors, but Haley Joel Osment was amazing so young! The sad parts were super emotional. You need to check out HJO’s other movies as a child. Sadly his adult career has been less successful, although he IS still working and is still an excellent actor.
Great movie. good one George, "the guy behind you" sorry Simone I probably would have done the same thing. it is interesting to see you go through what I did the first time I saw it. thank you. Simone please say good night to the guy that was behind you that George could see. lol
The "unfinished actor" has several starring roles: Forrest Gump, Pay it Forward, A.I. Artificial Intelligence, and Second Hand Lions (one of my favorites which you would love!) just to name a few.
Great reaction! This is probably my absolute favorite suspense film. Two other fantastic movies you should both watch to see Haley Osment in action are "Pay It Forward" and "Secondhand Lions." The first is a classic drama, while the other is a seriously underrated family film.
13:33 That's director M. Night. He often cameos in his films. As an aside, I don't recall if you both have watched 'The Others' with Nicole Kidman, it's also a ghost haunting story. I recommend that one as well. Oh! And 'The Woman in Black' with Daniel Radcliffe.
"Unbreakable" is my favourite M. Night Shyamalan movie, but this video reminded me of how much this movie was filled with great little scenes of human moments (and of course how much Haley Joel Osment killed it in his role). So glad you two watched it!
After Signs, the Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, I thought that I would just go see whatever M. Night Shyamalan came out with next. I'd done that with actors before, but this was the first time for a director. I did, unfortunately that didn't work out.,
Sixth sense is such a great movie, easily Shymalan's best work. On a rewatch you get to understand why it's easy to miss the misdirection nuggets placed within the movie. They are pretty much made to be unnoticeable even when you are looking for them. So Awesome.
I love that after all these years there are still people who don't know the secret of this movie! I saw this in the theater a week before its official release on a sneak-preview release at our local cinema and man, it was hard to wait for my friends and family to finally see it so we could talk about it! LOL
It's pretty astonishing that two people who enjoy film and pop culture have managed to dodged one of the most famous, spoiled, spoofed and parodied twist reveals of all time for the past two decades, but isn't that realisation kicking in so damn good. I watched it when I was ten and it came on TV one night and my parents asleep on the couch. I didn't want to wake them in case they sent me to bed because it was late and not a film for unfinished adults, but I distinctly remembered silently freaking out and pacing around reevaluating every scene after that reveal landed.
Excellent reaction, guys. Really love this channel. Here's a fun bit. The color red, fairly common to see in daily life, or in most films, only occurs in this film when ghosts are also in the scene.
It also makes perfect sense that Cole would run away from all the ghosts except for Malcolm, because he was so gifted with kids and his personality was very charming to them.
Watching you two trying to unpack this movie was awesome! The color red plays a very important part in the movie. Every time there is a red object it means a meshing of the real world and the spirit world. It goes even deeper than that. Anna is constantly wearing red and the shade of red represents her grief towards her husband. When she meets with her new boyfriend her clothes are such a dark red they're almost brown. There is way too much to explain here, but there are several articles that explain everything going on. The movie is worth another watch after a little research.
Congrats on finally getting to see one of the greatest twists in cinema history. If you enjoyed this, I would recommend checking out the very different but also woefully underappreciated Lady In The Water.
Yeah, I suspect shows like Medium & Ghost Whisperer actually GOT on TV because of the massive success of THIS movie. Also, the thing you are thinking of (making someone ELSE intentionally sick) is called "Munchausen by proxy". This movie is SO good that, even though I avoided almost all spoilers & saw it one YEAR after it came out, (I KNEW there was SOME "twist ending" but that is all) I STLL couldn't figure out WHAT the twist was until mere MINUTES before the reveal! Now THAT is quality. Glad you two got to enjoy the surprise as well!
great reaction. Simone's fear reactions were all adorable. When this movie was released it was incredible how people that watched it they all made an agreement, without talking to each other, to not give any spoiler to people that hadn't watch it yet. It was really incredible. p.s.: Simone is sooooo pretty and you both are really clever on your commentary.
The performances, the script, and the direction in the Sixth Sense are really great and are executed on such a high level. That took the movie to a legendary level. I think M. Night Shymalan's has been chasing that magic ever since and has only come close in "Signs"
I love all the little details you never catch the first time. Both Cole and Vincent have a shock of white hair from the stress of seeing all the ghosts. Malcolm unknowingly holds his hand to his gunshot wound after bashing the store window. The color red only appears when death is around (killer mom in red by the red roses, the red doorknob, Cole's red sweater, the red balloon). So many great moments that just add to everything.
I didn't know Simone could handle horror this badly. That makes for both an amazing watch and a strong desire for you two to watch Hereditary. Like that must happen now.
When watching it a second time, look for the color red. It's a hint when the spirits touch the real world. Also, Bruce Willis character wears the same clothes throughout the movie. He just removes or adds the sweater, the vest, the jacket, the tie.
I love watching people react to this film. When it came out I was dating a film major. I saw it first and we went to see it together a few days later. I remember being shocked at the twist ending and really excited for her to see it, being a film major I thought she would love it. She guessed the entire story as soon as you see Bruce sitting across from the kids apartment for the first time. Five minutes into the thing and she figured it all out. This movie will forever have one of the biggest payoffs and the biggest let downs for me in movies. lol.
The part that everyone always seems to miss the significance of it, isn't that his hands were hot and sweaty and left an imprint on the table in that scene, but that if you leave your hands on the table until it leaves an imprint, it does take a few seconds to do that, and that means that he was seated the whole few seconds she left the room, and that means that the open cupboards and drawers were not opened by him.
The twist in this is so iconic that it's one of the archetypal "films that jerks think it's funny to spoil the ending to". After this came out, jokes about Bruce Willis being dead the whole time were everywhere.
Not really. It came out in ‘99, and the Internet was less jaded and troll-y back then. People were really good about not revealing the twist because they wanted their friends to see it and have their minds similarly blown. You had to go out of your way to discover what the twist was before watching.
@@MarcosElMalo2 I'm referring more to its prevalence in pop culture. I wasn't even thinking of anything as specific as the Internet. It's like when people tell you what Rosebud is when you mention Citizen Kane.
This was such a joy to watch with y'all! I'm sorry it was so intense for you Simone, I hope you didn't suffer too much afterward. I saw this as an unfinished adult myself and it freaked me out a lot too, so it still spooks me a bit on rewatch. But even undercooked me thought the story and acting was so amazing that I had to keep watching and loved the movie anyway. Thanks so much for pushing through! ❤️😊
The chemistry you 2 have is amazing. Ive seen it before, but this video really shows it. The one scared and the other calming (and sometimes stirring the pot lol), the jokes to ease the tension and the back and forth is just really good.
Haley Joel Osment won 16 awards for his role in Sixth Sense, 3 of them from the same event (Best Supporting Actor, Youth In Film and Most Promising Actor from Las Vegas Film Critics Society Awards). He was nominated for another 7, including an Oscar. So yeah, the film world really recognized him in this film. Even though he had been in 6 films before (including Forrest Gump and Beaty & The Beast: Enchanted Christmas) in prominent roles and was a recurring actor in several top-rated tv shows, this was the film that made him a household name.
Yep like how the color red only appears when something supernatural is happening (or that something "isn't right"). Or that Willis is always wearing that blue collared shirt he was shot in, if only under other layers of clothing
The mom.poisoning her child could be be suffering with munchausen by proxy. It's essentially a mother (typically) who needs someone to constantly take care of so they are seen as a loving person by their peers
Hey all just fyi, we bleeped out words like "k*ds and ch*ld" in this video, because we wanted to make sure YT wouldnt hit us with the COPPA flag for "ch*ld endangerment", which has happened with all of our Harry Potter videos. Luckily this video got through that algorithm clean.
Insane. They are absolutely insane. I’m sorry you guys have to jump through all these hoops😔
Don't worry george I've some wine right now, love you guys
w-what. children is a swear word now? how are we supposed to refer to them?
Cinebinge! Another good movie with this unfinished adult is Secondhand Lions. And I'm once again attempting to get you to watch Pitch Black, with Vin deisel
@@jhibbitt2896 not so much that, if you recall about 2 years ago there was a whole issue of ch*ld p**nography hidden in the comments of videos tailored to k*ds, a lot of predators hanging around. as a response to that, and with the COPPA law passing, YT had to implement an AI detection system that auto turns off the comment, and suppresses any video that may contain content related to ch*ld endangerment. Unfortunately the system doesnt take context into account and is very flawed, so it just looks for any video with young actors and words like ch*ldren and flag it. regardless if its a movie or not.
The fact that you guys have been able to avoid the biggest plot twist in movie history for this long is both mind boggling & impressive😎
@SuperPunch76 I hadn't seen it till recently and had NO idea about the plot twist. How I went 23 years without knowing is beyond me but all I knew was the iconic quote
I've had it spoiled for me in an episode of "According to Jim", when Jim just said out of nowhere "Bruce Willis is a ghost and doesn't know it"
I had it spoiled around the time it came out by a magazine that wasn't even talking about the movie.
I didn't even get through the original theatre run without it being ruined for me
As I was watching this reaction my mind kept on thinking about, "when Bruce Willis is dead at the end of Sixth Sense I JIZZED IN MY PANTS!"
That scene in the car gets me every time. Some of the best acting ever. So many emotions in just a few minutes.
@@-M0LE Agreed 100%. Haley Joel Osment's acting is obviously great but that scene would not work if Toni Collette's acting wasn't incredible as well. Such a hard and beautiful scene to play.
This scene and the one ironically with Haley Joel Osment from Forrest Gump where Tom Hanks says "Is, is he smart or is he...?"
I have watched this film at least 15 times. I am a 6 foot 380 lb biker dude. That scene in the car causes eye leakage every dang time.
Makes me cry every time.
Car onions.
So fun to watch this movie with people who didn’t know the twist. George’s “what!?!” was perfect!
That twist is almost as famous as “I’m your father” .
@@SonOfMuta let’s blame autocorrect for switching “I am” to “I’’m”
@@SonOfMuta I focussed on the important part, but you’re absolutely right
@@SonOfMuta *your* 😁
@@SonOfMuta play it again, Sam.
@@SonOfMuta If you're correcting someone over that quote, don't be petty when someone corrects your incorrectness.
I’m 55 and have seen thousands of movies … that moment, when I realized he had been dead the whole movie is the most memorable scene of any movie I’ve ever seen. Time stopped. I had shivers! I started playing back all the clues that were dropped over the course of the movie. Absolutely the best scene of all time.
I saw it coming 15 minutes before it happened. There was a short play on UK TV in the early 70s where a young couple crashed their car and found a house which seemed to have ghosts in it. Eventually the the guy went back to the car and found their dead bodies. They were the ghosts and the people in the house were alive.
I'd heard about it before seeing the movie cos I was only 14 when it came out so by the time I did it wasn't a shocking twist but somehow it still had a massive impact after sitting getting immersed in the story. I envy people who get to see it not knowing about the twist.
Hands DOWN... best "Sixth Sense" reaction EVER. All the theories were so strong and well thought out... WRONG, but smart. Just a blast.
George likes to guess especially, so I was worried he'd see it, especially when he gave a little gasp of realization, but it was only about his old patient seeing them too. I think most people that catch it, often do so when Joel stares at Bruce Willis and says "all the time", so when I saw they didn't include that line in the edit, I figured we could be home free :)
Kyra’s mother had Munchausen syndrome by proxy, that’s why she poisoned Kyra. It’s important that Cole helped because she was beginning to make the other daughter sick. You can hear people at the funeral murmuring about the other daughter in the beginning of the scene.
She was Kyras step mother.
Yep. And speaking of which.. Gypsy Rose is getting out of prison in December! Good for her.
@@lev170 There is never any indication whether she is biological or stepmother, but if she is a stepmom then there are no pictures of the children with their biological mom, which would be a bit odd.
@@lev170 no I think she was Kyra's biological mother, because like the other user said, there were no other pictures of Kyra with any other woman in any of the family photos. If she was the stepmother, then surely there would've been photos of Kyra's biological mother in the house. Since there are no photos of any other woman, I do think she was Kyra's biological mother.
@@iamlinda100 Munchausen by proxy is also way more common in bioparents than step parents. Step parents abuse is more often of different kinds.
One of the things I love most about the scene in the car is that the entire story about coming to see Toni Colette dance is something that the grandmother could easily have told Cole while she was still alive. But telling him the answer to the question that Toni Colette had asked the grandmother at her grave - THATS the proof that the grandmother told him that after she was dead.
Very true.
The director was concerned about the "I see dead people" scene, because it gave it all away right there, and yet the twist caught most people. I thought it was such a cool concept. To have Bruce Willis dead from the start of the movie made hiding the plot twist seamless. Such an awesome way to write and direct a thriller.
@Kristopher Chavez I think it's because when you know the twist, it seems super obvious that that scene is giving it away and if the viewer is eagle-eyed and really paying attention, yeah, they can get the idea there. But of course, most people don't watch movies being 100% focused on spotting clues, so it worked fine.
I think they were relatively safe. Given the hints about ghost activity and movies rarely having a dead main character - I think many people would have forgotten the shooting at the start of the movie and just moved into a 'he got better'. . . So the seeing dead people line is just confirming what the audience expects and leaves them wondering how Bruce Willis will help the kid overcome the scary ghosts. Probably all the more so since all the ghost activity and appearances tend to be scary. . . Yet Bruce's scenes are calm. . .
@Kristopher Chavez I'm one of those who never got the twist until it was explained to me. Of course I understood Cole saw dead people. But I was so invested in Malcolm as Cole's doctor that I couldn't (or wouldn't) see that Cole saw Malcolm only as a dead man.
@Kristopher Chavez Split was really good, but Glass sucked big time.
@@ralphficker167 They only see what they want to see.
What the mother (?) who killed the little girl did (and was doing to the sister) is called Munchausen syndrome by proxy, where a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under their care
Also the doctor in one scene (Dr.Hill) was played by the writer/director M. Night Shyamalan. He appears in a lot of his movies in small parts.
Either that, or it was a wife that didn't want the husband to leave her. So, they pull together and stay together for the sick kid. The husband was on to her very, very quickly in the scene. It makes we feel like he had an epiphany.
Yeah, the mother was hooked on the idea of being a caregiver and had to keep her sick to keep that feeling going. Like an addiction.
George mentioned that he had heard of people doing that to themselves for attention. That version is know simply as Munchausen Syndrom. When someone does it to someone else (usually their child or disabled person for whom they are responsible) "by proxy" is added.
Yep. I don't know if it's been pointed out but you hear a couple people talking at the funeral and one says, "and now the younger one is starting to get sick..." implying that the mother was starting to do it to the girl's younger sister, the little girl she had Cole give the finger puppet to.
There was a nurse in this country (UK) who had this syndrome - where she killed a lot of her child patients so that she could wallow in the drama the families were going through - hard to forget that bitch, I believe her name was Beverly Alet (not sure of spelling), I believe it happened in the eighties…..
Honestly, this movie still holds up, even after you know all the twists, just cause the performances and dramatic elements are done so well. Like, it has this famous twist ending, which is brilliant, but it wouldn't have nearly the effect it does without all the great emotional buildup that came before. Yes, it's a spooky movie with a twist ending, but at its heart it's a story about real human emotion and connection, and that's what really makes it work, and what I remember most from it isn't the scary ghosts or even "Bruce Willis was dead the whole time!" but scenes like the one in the car at the end, where we just see a mother and son desperately trying--and finally succeeding--at connecting with and understanding each other.
Agreed. I watched it for the first time when I was around 12. I'll be 33 in 5 days and I've watched it lots of times since then. I still enjoy it every time, simply because of how well-made it is and the incredible acting.
I actually got chills and tears just by watching them react to this movie, even knowing it almost by heart. It's a great emotional journey. The car scene and malcom's speech to his wife always get me.
So well said!
When this movie came out a lot of people watched it and then immediately got in line to buy tickets to watch it again to catch all the various references. When I saw it the entire audience gave a huge reaction when they figured out that Bruce Willis had been dead the whole time. It was fantastic to share that group experience.
I did the same thing! I wanted to see the audience reaction while trying to figure out all the references and it made me cry with them!
I think I would've watched it again to experience that crowd reaction again myself!!
31:25 "Honestly, though, I hope he won a bunch of accolades for this..." He did. He was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, and he won the Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild awards in the same category. He also won many other less prestigious awards.
I saw this in the theater on opening night. It was one of the most satisfying reveals I’ve ever experienced. The audible gasps from the audience as the reveal montage played were so loud. And the sounds of crying toward the end were equally loud. It’s too bad you didn’t see it at that time. Because it’s a genuine treat to be apart of cinematic history.I rarely classify films as masterpieces because it’s often a term that’s overused and undeserved. However, The Sixth Sense is a true masterpiece. Toni Collette and Haley Joel Osment should have won Academy Awards for their respective performances.
Quite right-this movie is a bona fide masterpiece.
I've always like that Sixth Sense is about turning a curse into a gift, instead of most movies where it's about turning a gift into a curse.
Then the movie became a curse because hollywood insisted on trying to replicate it to death
The over all story-line nearer towards the end where the Dr. helps Cole to 'embrace' his gift by facing his fears & putting himself out there to see if 'listening' to the ghosts would be of any benefit to them. 'Such a brilliantly written story, especially to see Cole rise above his situation & work through his trauma & deal with his gift.
TY for both your honest reactions! 😆
Quite true.
This is the last horror movie where the hype matched the quality. That twist is one of the best of all time. What makes it so great is that the movie doesn’t cheat. The twist is earned.
"The man behind said, 'everything will be ok'"
Simone curses out George and then looks behind for the man. Ha Ha!
That made me laugh as well. Classic moment.
That was toooooo perfect.
I don’t blame Simone for cursing out George-when she’s so terrified and upset and he jokes about “the man” behind her,that’s going too far,that’s kind of sadistic.
@@BarryHart-xo1oy It was, but I loved it.
That was a moment of brilliant improv comedy.
The doctor who talked to the kid's mother was M. Night Shyam... Shymal... the guy.
Haley Joel Osment truly is an amazing actor.
I guess he, like many child stars, have had a hard time following up the early success. Not mainly because they’re bad actors, but the viewers just got used to their younger persona.
His performances in The Sixth Sense, Pay it forward and A.I. are just fenomenal for a 11-13 yo.
What about Second Hand Lions?
Wasn't he also in Pay It Forward?
I got it when the ring dropped. I remember in the cinema, there were a few gasps then, and a bunch more about 10 seconds later. Shyamalan claims he was deathly afraid that everyone would get it in the 'I see dead people' scene, notably at the part when Cole tells Bruce that 'they don't even know they're dead'.
A lot of people get to the point of not being able to handle the scariness anymore right at the point where it begins to calm down again, where the girl gets into his tent-fort.
Don't forget that Cole has a job that many kids have wanted. The little guy is a Ghostbuster!
Ha! That "Guy behind you" bit is GOLD!
Toni Collette is a treasure. An all time great actress. Everything she does is fantastic.
Watching this movie in the theater, not knowing anything about it, was one of my most memorable experiences. The scary parts were extra scary especially when I was closer to the screen than I preferred and then that twist reveal at the end... absolutely mind blowing!
Same here. this was great to see in a theater and talking about it on the way out.
This is the only movie I remember watching in a packed movie theatre that was completely perfectly "intensely" silent at some scenes. Good stuff.
George, your comment on the guy behind you says it's all right was gold. Died laughing. Simone, your reaction to horror films ensures you are going to have MANY more requests for such films, I'm sorry to say! Wonderful reaction! So glad nobody figured it out beforehand.
Yeah, not even the guy behind Simone!
I as searching for a comment about what George said to scare Simone. My reaction was completely different from yours. I thought George was mean and an asshole for saying that there was someone behind Simone.
🤣🤣 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Funniest comment ever! LMAO.
@@residentgood8605 Lighten up. Attitudes like that are why comedians nowadays are getting assaulted.
@@jp3813 no thank you. I'll continue to expose assholery when I see it, even if it's from a comedian. George crossed the line with that "joke" in my opinion.
BIG SHOUTOUT to Simone for going through this for us, She looked genuinely terrified. We love you Simone!!!
I want to see her react to more supernatural horror movies!
I'm working backward through the archive, but if y'all knew Simone was this way about horror, then that was sick to recommend this haha. Then again, it's shameful to have a movie channel and not have seen this, so I guess well done?
Hear,hear!
Hard to believe that the gun man used to be singing "hanging tough" with the new kids on the block, jesus christ he was bone chilling in this 😲😨😨😢 peace to yas
I was watching these two analyze what they thought they knew was going on and smiling with delight. I felt powerful 😁...Im rubbing my hands together like a mad scientist waiting for the look on their Sixth Sense virgin faces.
I just wish they debriefed a bit more about the Twist afterwards.
So basically you're like if Cole was a jerk. You know that they're not seeing the big picture (like dead people) but you enjoy watching them fumble along until they finally put it all together.
Yeah, we're all kind of jerks that way. "No, Soylent Green is *not* people. Trust me, I've seen the movie and Soylent Green is totally not people." (And much quiet snickering ensues.)
🤣🤣👏👏
When you rewatch this movie, so many little things you didn't notice the first time just jump out at you. Great movie
@@tanelviil9149 "They only see what they want to see. They don't know they're stupid".

I'm shocked that you've both lived this long without getting spoiled on this. It's probably the most famous twist in all of film. It was fun to watch your realizations.
The car scene is probably in my top ten dramatic scenes of all time. So well done.
My dad when I showed him this movie, watched it a 2nd time immediately afterwards. just so he could pick up on all the signs and clues that Bruce Willis character was a ghost. Such a masterful story and film.
17:09 Holy hell....almost fell out the chair laughing. Nice one George!
George went from: 🤣🤣🤣🤣😨😨😨😨😨 lol
You da real mvp. Thanks for the time stamp!
I can't believe you made it this far in life without having this spoiled. This was far and away the best of his movies, but Unbreakable, Split, and Glass were also very good. I liked The Lady in the Water, but not many others did. Signs was okay, but had a stupid plot device, and The Village was meh.
Neither of of you commented (on the RUclips version at least) the guy at the beginning (mark Wahlburg's brother Donnie), and Cole both had a white spot of hair.
When I was about 6, I was walking across a park where some guys were playing baseball. One of them got a huge hit and I took a baseball to the base of the skull, halfway between my spine and my ear. My hair in that spot came in white for about 25 years. It was still white when I met my wife, the year this movie came out. She commented on it often. Since then, it got progressively darker, and is now barely lighter than the dark brown of the rest of remaining hair.
We went to this in the theater a few times. The second was to see all the clues we missed the first time. The rest were to listen to the gasps from the ground as they started to get it. I worked it out when his ring hit the floor. Someone got it before me and I think their reaction jump-started mine. My wife got a few seconds after. The rest of the theater got it over the next ten seconds in a sort of wave. It was really cool to be there for that, and to sort of see it again.
The mother of the girl had Munchhausen by Proxy. It's a rare issue, but common enough to be a trope. A parent will make sure to keep someone near them sick for the attention and/or financial gain (go fund me). We called that in the theater when we saw the mother wore red to the wake. Did you catch the part where a guest said the younger sister was starting to get sick too. That was the dead girl's mission. Save her sister.
Signs is actually my favorite after Sixth Sense despite what I assume you view as the hokey plot device (which, if it's the same thing I'm thinking of, I agree could have been better). Everything came together at the end seemlessly because there are no coincidences... I remember reading a reviewer who complained that it "ruined" all the characters when you found out the reason they were the way they were was because of the ending, but that was actually the whole point of the movie--that everything serves a purpose and there are no coincidences ever. As an editor, there's nothing in there that they could cut because all of it serves an important piece in the story.
I feel old. I remember when Mark was Donnie's brother.
One of the best 6th sense reactions I've seen, both of you completely fooled, just as I was on my first viewing. Now re-watch the movie as a reaction because the second time you spot the scenes of people together not talking are because the living don't talk to the dead. Also the colour red is used when there is supernatural activity, red tent red door handle, red balloon etc. Lucky for me I had good friends who saw the movie and didn't spoil it for me and told me just to get to the cinema and watch it. For me the audience silence at the end except some crying when the twist is revealed, was an atmosphere I've never since experienced walking out the cinema.
I agree. This movie deserves a second reaction video, perhaps labeled Part 2.
The part where he tells his mother that his grandmother visits him, and what she said to him about watching his mother dance, and telling her the answer to her question is "yes," well. . . it makes me bawl like a goddam baby every time. And I'm a 51 year old man.
I like how the first half of the movie is more focused on Malcolm's side, and then after we find out whats going on with Cole it focuses more on his side of the story. Great reaction as always. I love this movie. The "bike wreck" scene in the car makes me cry every. Single. Time. No matter how many times Ive seen it.
This movie was wildly popular when it came out in 1999. It was before social media and the twist was mostly a kept secret because it was so impactful, people didn't want to spoil it for others who hadn't seen it yet. It made M. Knight Shyamalan's career.
Toni Collette was Oscar nominated for her role in this film. After The Sixth Sense, Haley Joel Osment was hired by Steven Spielberg for his 2001 film A.I. with Jude Law. You are in for a thrill ride with that movie - it runs about 3 hours long, but worth it.
Good reaction. One thing, the issue of medical professionals often misdiagnosing family members isn't a "trope", it is merely a reality in many cases. The reason is simple; the objectivity required to make sound judgments is gone for many people when dealing with one's own family. We are often most bias with the people who are closest to us. Also medical professionals aren't immune to both projection and denial when strong emotional stakes are on the line.
Haley Joel Osment was phenomenal in this film. I loved him in Artificial Intelligence, a Stanley Kubrick / Steven Spielberg film. He plays a robot boy. It does have this fantastical, Pinocchio-style story too. Highly recommend.
One of the biggest jump scares I've ever had is when that ghost walks past the bathroom while Cole is doing his business. So simple, yet so effective. The two women in front of me in the theater were hyperventilating for about two minutes after that. 😄 Simone, I'm really sorry to say this, but you getting freaked out is quality entertainment. 😊 If you guys haven't seen these, I recommend Se7en and The Mist - two of the most messed up movie endings ever. Love you guys!!
27:26 it's called Munchausens By Proxy. It's where someone keeps another person/child sick so they can "nurse them" and that person/child will forever be dependent on them as a caregiver. Munchausens is where it's a person making themselves sick to keep people around/have a SO/parent take care of them.
16:57 for George having fun at Simone's expense.
Still laughing, but satisfied. It was THE movie with THE twist, back when there was no internet to spoil it. Very few even spoiled it after they saw it, so most went in blind. I'm laughing because just enough time has passed that people are rediscovering this movie WITHOUT knowing the twist. I even watched someone recently seeing SW for the first time and didn't know the mega twist in the middle movie. And, yes, the acting was on point, Bruce playing against type, Haley was brilliant as the kid. And perhaps the scene stealer, Toni, in that car scene. She 100% sold it. I remember a scene in Sleepers where De Niro did a similar thing with next to no dialogue in a scene when the truth is revealed to him. Scarlett J in one particular moment in Lost in Translation. Toni was already big here in Australia, but this made Hollywood sit up and pay attention, and the rest is history (she's had a stellar career ever since). Awesome stuff, and thanks for the share. Love how you work together. A dynamic duo.
27:22 Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSBP)
is a mental health problem in which a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under his or her care, such as a child, an elderly adult, or a person who has a disability.
That has nothing to do with Münchhausen syndrome. Münchhausen syndrome is a psychological disorder where someone pretends to be ill or deliberately causes produces symptoms of illness in themselves, with the goal of assuming the "sick role", to get people to take care of them and thus gaining attention. Often relapsing soon after recovery due to loss attention given. Named after the classic character Münchhausen, who set out to become the center of attention by telling fantastical stories of his adventures, which were all made up. The woman in the movie is likely suffering from caregiver resentment in the final stage. Not sure if the terminology actually changes one's you are actually willing to commit homicide.
@@dannymunch4633 I think it is the by proxy which transfers it to the patient or at least that's what Google say 😀
@@johnkominar8417 I considered that, but it is still too far off, as the motivation switches from appearing needy in order to get attention to getting rid of someone in order to take a burden of oneself. I may however not remember the movie correctly, so I don't recall if she was the reason of the child's illness or if she just poisoned her after she feel sick due to natural causes. Anyway I suppose there is or should be another term for this, when someone is doing it to another person as Münchhausen syndrome is supposed to be self-inflicted with the intend to gather attention.
“Munchausen syndrome by proxy is a mental health problem in which a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under his or her care, such as a child, an elderly person, or a person with a disability. Because vulnerable people are the victim. MSBP is a form of child abuse or elder abuse.”
HealthLink British Columbia
It fits, and the victims do sometimes die.
It's pretty implied that she made the daughter sick, because someone said now the younger sister is "ill"
More than the actors getting awards when this first came out, but I hope they all get residuals every single time this film is watched!
Thank you for a great reaction review!❤❤❤❤
Great reaction Simone and George. It's fascinating to see people are so concerned for Haley Joel Osmith as a kid in the presence of a ghost they completely bypass the fact that Bruce Willis is one of the ghosts he's seeing. Since Bruce Willis is so friendly and helpful and we perceive usually ghosts to be scary and foreboding. So it leads to the viewer ignoring many of the subtle hints that are being laid throughout the movie.
The final scene with Cole and his mom in the car always gets me to cry. Y'all should watch another M. Night Shyamalan movie, Signs. You'll find some emotional scenes in that one too.
And Unbreakable too. That movie is the movie that made me want to make a movie.
Personally, I would consider that "unfinished adult's" best movie to be Pay It Forward. Fantastic acting from all parties in that one.
One of those rare movies that makes you want to be a better person!
I concur. I was SOOO disappointed he didn't get an oscar nomination for that, I thought it would have been completely deserved.
"the guy behind you said its ok" PERFECT, PERFECT, LOLOLOLOL
If you enjoyed Haley’s performance in this, you really need to watch “Pay It Forward”. Not only is his performance great in it, the movie would be a great one for a reaction.
And when you want a more light-hearted Haley Joel Osment film, check out "Secondhand Lions."
yup bothe movies are great 👍
"She's pissed!" Omg at 6:54, so adorable, 😂 So glad no one spoiled this movie for you guys.
The unfinished adult got a best supporting actor Oscar nomination so, yep, accolades. And he deserved it. Gotta be the dream getting such a high accolade when you're that young - the problem is where you go from there, I mean he's arguably peaked in his teenage years, everything else must feel like a bit of a downer.
HJO is in the fun comedy tv show 'Teachers' and puts in a good shift. A fun show to watch if you can find it, especially if there's an educator in your life.
Competitive year too! He was going up against Michael Caine (The Cider House Rules), Tom Cruise (Magnolia), Michael Clarke Duncan (The Green Mile), and Jude Law (The Talented Mr. Ripley) for that Oscar. I think Caine won but damn so much talent in a single category for a single year. Lol
@@Little1Cave you pretty much hit the nail right on the head, well said.
@@Little1Cave yep, Michael Caine won
@@group-music yeah it was a reference to what they said.
Are you ready for another plot twist? The actor who played Vincent Grey in The Sixth Sense is the same actor who played Carwood Lipton in Band of Brothers--none other than Donnie Wahlberg. He lost 43 pounds in just a few weeks to play the role of Vincent in this movie.
"The guy behind you said it's okay." Thank you George, that made my day.
This is certainly MNS's best movie; nothing else can compare! Watching the behind the scenes/additional commentary is also worth a watch in your spare time.
A really great scared & fun reaction to a really great film, Simone & George! 🥰
All the actors in this were excellent, including all the other child actors, but Haley Joel Osment was amazing so young!
The sad parts were super emotional.
You need to check out HJO’s other movies as a child. Sadly his adult career has been less successful, although he IS still working and is still an excellent actor.
"The guy behind you said it's okay."
I lost my shit.
The doctor after the locked-in-the-cupboard incident is played by the director.
I love that M. Night cameos in all his movies.
What a fantastic reaction. I'm so pleased you didn't guess the twist.
Great movie. good one George, "the guy behind you" sorry Simone I probably would have done the same thing. it is interesting to see you go through what I did the first time I saw it. thank you. Simone please say good night to the guy that was behind you that George could see. lol
The "unfinished actor" has several starring roles: Forrest Gump, Pay it Forward, A.I. Artificial Intelligence, and Second Hand Lions (one of my favorites which you would love!) just to name a few.
George and Simone REALLY need to do a reaction video to Secondhand Lions. Such a great but underrated movie.
@@richarddexter7641 -- Agreed!
Great reaction! This is probably my absolute favorite suspense film. Two other fantastic movies you should both watch to see Haley Osment in action are "Pay It Forward" and "Secondhand Lions." The first is a classic drama, while the other is a seriously underrated family film.
13:33 That's director M. Night. He often cameos in his films. As an aside, I don't recall if you both have watched 'The Others' with Nicole Kidman, it's also a ghost haunting story. I recommend that one as well. Oh! And 'The Woman in Black' with Daniel Radcliffe.
"Unbreakable" is my favourite M. Night Shyamalan movie, but this video reminded me of how much this movie was filled with great little scenes of human moments (and of course how much Haley Joel Osment killed it in his role). So glad you two watched it!
Seconding you guys watch Unbreakable. I think it's my favorite Bruce Willis role actually.
Unbreakable is AMAZING!
Split was good, too, but the follow up, Glass, was awful. Anya Taylor-Joy made Split so much better.
@@hurricane1951 Loved Split too. Glass was ok. Was a bit disappointing. M.Night tried to do too much with the secret societies and such.
After Signs, the Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, I thought that I would just go see whatever M. Night Shyamalan came out with next. I'd done that with actors before, but this was the first time for a director. I did, unfortunately that didn't work out.,
Love her freakouts. Cracks me up. Your comment that there was someone behind was the icing on the cake.
Sixth sense is such a great movie, easily Shymalan's best work. On a rewatch you get to understand why it's easy to miss the misdirection nuggets placed within the movie. They are pretty much made to be unnoticeable even when you are looking for them. So Awesome.
Unbreakable is a close 2nd.
LOL. “The guy behind you says its ok.” 🤣🤣🤣
I love that after all these years there are still people who don't know the secret of this movie! I saw this in the theater a week before its official release on a sneak-preview release at our local cinema and man, it was hard to wait for my friends and family to finally see it so we could talk about it! LOL
If you like the kid from this movie, I really recommend "A.I. Artificial Intelligence", it has the kid as the main character :)
In my opinion, this is the most amazing movie twist in all of cinematic history. It was so fun watching you guys react to it!
It's pretty astonishing that two people who enjoy film and pop culture have managed to dodged one of the most famous, spoiled, spoofed and parodied twist reveals of all time for the past two decades, but isn't that realisation kicking in so damn good.
I watched it when I was ten and it came on TV one night and my parents asleep on the couch. I didn't want to wake them in case they sent me to bed because it was late and not a film for unfinished adults, but I distinctly remembered silently freaking out and pacing around reevaluating every scene after that reveal landed.
Excellent reaction, guys. Really love this channel.
Here's a fun bit. The color red, fairly common to see in daily life, or in most films, only occurs in this film when ghosts are also in the scene.
I still cannot get over how the same person directed this and also The Last Airbender and After Earth... absolutely wild variance in quality
It also makes perfect sense that Cole would run away from all the ghosts except for Malcolm, because he was so gifted with kids and his personality was very charming to them.
He did run away from Malcolm. he ran down the street and into the church.
Watching you two trying to unpack this movie was awesome! The color red plays a very important part in the movie. Every time there is a red object it means a meshing of the real world and the spirit world. It goes even deeper than that. Anna is constantly wearing red and the shade of red represents her grief towards her husband. When she meets with her new boyfriend her clothes are such a dark red they're almost brown. There is way too much to explain here, but there are several articles that explain everything going on. The movie is worth another watch after a little research.
Did you guys recognize 1st Sergeant Carwood Lipton? That was Donnie Walberg at the beginning.
He was Hangin’ Tough in those tighty-whiteys…😏

Congrats on finally getting to see one of the greatest twists in cinema history. If you enjoyed this, I would recommend checking out the very different but also woefully underappreciated Lady In The Water.
Yeah, I suspect shows like Medium & Ghost Whisperer actually GOT on TV because of the massive success of THIS movie.
Also, the thing you are thinking of (making someone ELSE intentionally sick) is called "Munchausen by proxy".
This movie is SO good that, even though I avoided almost all spoilers & saw it one YEAR after it came out, (I KNEW there was SOME "twist ending" but that is all) I STLL couldn't figure out WHAT the twist was until mere MINUTES before the reveal! Now THAT is quality. Glad you two got to enjoy the surprise as well!
great reaction. Simone's fear reactions were all adorable. When this movie was released it was incredible how people that watched it they all made an agreement, without talking to each other, to not give any spoiler to people that hadn't watch it yet. It was really incredible. p.s.: Simone is sooooo pretty and you both are really clever on your commentary.
I am so thrilled you are reviewing this movie and that you have no idea of the twist!!! Xx
The performances, the script, and the direction in the Sixth Sense are really great and are executed on such a high level. That took the movie to a legendary level. I think M. Night Shymalan's has been chasing that magic ever since and has only come close in "Signs"
I really enjoyed Signs and Unbreakable (the latter being the very definition of a slow-burner).
Unbreakable was great. Signs was contrived and painful. As bad as The Happening.
@@jmacd8817 -- Signs was awesome. The Crappening, on the other hand, is the only movie I've ever demanded a refund on at the theater.
I love all the little details you never catch the first time. Both Cole and Vincent have a shock of white hair from the stress of seeing all the ghosts. Malcolm unknowingly holds his hand to his gunshot wound after bashing the store window. The color red only appears when death is around (killer mom in red by the red roses, the red doorknob, Cole's red sweater, the red balloon). So many great moments that just add to everything.
I didn't know Simone could handle horror this badly. That makes for both an amazing watch and a strong desire for you two to watch Hereditary. Like that must happen now.
@Kristopher Chavez or Martyrs (the French version, not the crappy American version)
@@marctowersap8018 or Japanese, korean horrors
When watching it a second time, look for the color red. It's a hint when the spirits touch the real world. Also, Bruce Willis character wears the same clothes throughout the movie. He just removes or adds the sweater, the vest, the jacket, the tie.
I love watching people react to this film. When it came out I was dating a film major. I saw it first and we went to see it together a few days later. I remember being shocked at the twist ending and really excited for her to see it, being a film major I thought she would love it. She guessed the entire story as soon as you see Bruce sitting across from the kids apartment for the first time. Five minutes into the thing and she figured it all out. This movie will forever have one of the biggest payoffs and the biggest let downs for me in movies. lol.
The part that everyone always seems to miss the significance of it, isn't that his hands were hot and sweaty and left an imprint on the table in that scene, but that if you leave your hands on the table until it leaves an imprint, it does take a few seconds to do that, and that means that he was seated the whole few seconds she left the room, and that means that the open cupboards and drawers were not opened by him.
The twist in this is so iconic that it's one of the archetypal "films that jerks think it's funny to spoil the ending to". After this came out, jokes about Bruce Willis being dead the whole time were everywhere.
Not really. It came out in ‘99, and the Internet was less jaded and troll-y back then. People were really good about not revealing the twist because they wanted their friends to see it and have their minds similarly blown. You had to go out of your way to discover what the twist was before watching.
@@MarcosElMalo2 I'm referring more to its prevalence in pop culture. I wasn't even thinking of anything as specific as the Internet. It's like when people tell you what Rosebud is when you mention Citizen Kane.
It's fascinating how contagious your reactions were! The jump scares, the jokes, AND the tear jerkers!
This was such a joy to watch with y'all! I'm sorry it was so intense for you Simone, I hope you didn't suffer too much afterward. I saw this as an unfinished adult myself and it freaked me out a lot too, so it still spooks me a bit on rewatch. But even undercooked me thought the story and acting was so amazing that I had to keep watching and loved the movie anyway. Thanks so much for pushing through! ❤️😊
23min in(I believe)
where u hear a foreign language on recorder..it's spanish..the man on a recorder is pleading for his life to be spared
This made my night! Thank you both. I used to watch this minimally 1-2x a year since I was a kid
The chemistry you 2 have is amazing. Ive seen it before, but this video really shows it. The one scared and the other calming (and sometimes stirring the pot lol), the jokes to ease the tension and the back and forth is just really good.
This might be my favorite reaction from Simone. She had me laughing a lot. :)
Haley Joel Osment won 16 awards for his role in Sixth Sense, 3 of them from the same event (Best Supporting Actor, Youth In Film and Most Promising Actor from Las Vegas Film Critics Society Awards).
He was nominated for another 7, including an Oscar.
So yeah, the film world really recognized him in this film.
Even though he had been in 6 films before (including Forrest Gump and Beaty & The Beast: Enchanted Christmas) in prominent roles and was a recurring actor in several top-rated tv shows, this was the film that made him a household name.
Yeah, this is one of those movies you need to watch twice, at least to see how it never breaks its own rules.
Yep like how the color red only appears when something supernatural is happening (or that something "isn't right"). Or that Willis is always wearing that blue collared shirt he was shot in, if only under other layers of clothing
The mom.poisoning her child could be be suffering with munchausen by proxy. It's essentially a mother (typically) who needs someone to constantly take care of so they are seen as a loving person by their peers
I want to watch all the scary movies with Simone. Her reactions to this are great!
The acting in this movie is just incredible.
Another Bruce Willis movie, another recommendation for
Hudson Hawk!
Hudson Hawk!
Hudson Hawk!
I’m gonna go with Last Boy Scout before Hudson Hawk.
