Chapter 2131 2131 Thought resurgence

The New York Times' film review perspective is very interesting and unique. They actually started with the trust between Malcolm and Cole, and saw the completely different core ideas of the film and interpreted the film. More importantly, they insisted that the trust bond between these two people is the key to the achievement of the entire film, which is obviously completely different from the Los Angeles Times.

However, the same is that the "New York Times" gave high praise to the "Supernatural Sixth Sense". The comment with a full score of 100 is also the only perfect score among criticisms. It obviously puts it at the height of "Exorcist", which is almost a supreme praise for a horror movie, and is enough to enter the classic hall.

From the Los Angeles Times on the West Coast to the New York Times on the East Coast, the two authoritative media in the comprehensive category have unanimously given incredibly high praise to the "Supernatural Sixth Sense". This is the peak of horror movies in the past decade after the "Ghostbusters", which has amazed countless viewers.

More importantly, it is not just these two media outlets. Roger Ebert also expressed similar views in the film review of the "Chicago Sun" and gave praise to the "Supernatural Sixth Sense".

"Do you believe in the existence of ghosts?"

Roger used a very wonderful film review title, which didn't look like a professional film review at all, but like a paper on religion or scientific research, which was ridiculous. However, the content of this article was obviously not religious research.

“‘They are everywhere, walking around like normal people, they can’t see each other, they can only see what they want to see.’

There is a story in the official biology textbook at the University of California, Los Angeles in the United States: In the current world, there are almost no black swans, only white swans exist. However, if one person sees a black swan, others cannot deny the existence of black swans, let alone say that "there are only white swans in the world." This is science and research spirit.

In this world, in addition to living, there are also dead; in addition to seeing, there are also invisible things. But most of the time, most people accept only part of the world.

So people turn a blind eye and refuse to believe and face certain phenomena in society; so history textbooks are only written by winners, so that people can only understand a certain aspect of history; so Malcolm could not accept the truth that Vincent told at the beginning; so Cole could only draw smiley faces and rainbows because 'they could only see what they wanted to see'.

The reason why light exists because it is the opposite of darkness; the reason why justice is yearned for by people is because of the existence of evil. The personality of relativity is incomplete, which means the possibility of division. This is originally an era of contradictions, but people try to deny the facts by refusing to admit it.

Malcolm is a child psychologist, which sets the tone and theme of the movie. This cannot be regarded as a horror movie in the strict sense, but it is not a simple plot movie. Instead, it explores a major psychological topic: Is there a possibility of self-salvation when humans face fear?

At the beginning of the movie, Malcolm was positive and optimistic and happy. His life was in a perfect state, but he never could face the truth of the world. So when Vincent opened this Pandora's box, the world began to fall apart.

Malcolm was trying to help Cole, but in fact he was trying to complete self-salvation, because humans could not complete self-salvation in the form of individuals. Humans were always individuals in society, and humans must approach themselves in connection and communication with other objects. In this process, Malcolm began to gradually approach the truth. Although he always held a skeptical attitude, Cole revealed the facts.

‘If you don’t believe me, how can you help me?’ Cole and Malcolm have the same problem. He cannot accept himself because he is actually because he cannot be accepted. Trust is not the beginning of help; trust is help, and it is rescue. However, in modern society, people are so alienated. Trust is already very difficult between mothers and children, between fathers and children, between teachers and students, between children, between children, between children and doctors.

From the despair of the "Seven Deadly Sins" to the indifference of society, to the joking of the darkness of society in "Los Angeles City Secret" to the irony of the "Trumen's World" to the sarcasm of entertainment to death. The cruelty and blood of society have been placed before everyone, but it has never been truly solved, and even the direction of the solution cannot be found. This time, the "Supernatural Sixth Sense" gave Hugo's answer.

If you think the "Supernatural Sixth Sense" is just a horror movie about ghosts, then you will only see a simple horror movie. But this movie is about reality. In the real world, many people are individuals who have never been seen, not just marginal groups, but also each of us.

Living in the heart, not in reality, only seeing what you want to see, denying and rejecting what you don’t want to see, you cannot truly ‘see’ the other person, see the objective person, but you cannot truly communicate with the other person, and you cannot understand the other person’s true thoughts, as if you are a transparent person who does not exist at all.

Just like many family life in reality, although they get along intimately every day, they actually don’t really see each other, communicate, or care. They just live under the same roof together. The invisible barrier makes each other more and more distant, and finally forget each other’s existence.

So, to each other, is the other one just a ghost that is 'visible but does not exist'? This is the cruel social reality. The whole society is bustling with countless humans, but each individual becomes more and more lonely, more and more alienated, and more and more unfamiliar. Standing at the center of the intersection, he only sees a group of ghosts with bodies.

In a world without trust, only ghosts can be seen by everyone; only those who are displaced between life and death can realize the true face of the world.

Trust is the truth of the world, and it is also the answer given by the "Supernatural Sixth Sense". This is science, the spirit of research, and it is also the truth.

Hugo Lancaster has shown admirable wisdom in selecting scripts in recent years, but what is implemented is his attention to social reality. This time, the "Supernatural Sixth Sense" analyzes and explains the cold society from a unique perspective of yin and yang. On the basis of family affection and love, it unearths the truth behind the bloody and cruel facts, which further sublimates the core idea of ​​the whole movie, making people amazed at Hugo's vision of selecting scripts.

The whole movie always has a strange and thrilling atmosphere, but the pace seems slow, and some emotional details are a bit too strong, making the emotions sticky and sensational, demonstrating the immatureness and youthfulness of m-Knight Shamaran as a fledgling director. However, the wonderful performances of the starring actors sublimate the overall level of the movie.

As a eleven-year-old child, Haley Joe Osmon's performance is undoubtedly amazing. His delicate and experienced performance makes the whole movie complete. His understanding and interpretation of performance is far beyond his peers, and he is definitely not inferior to other starring actors. It is no exaggeration to say that his performance in this movie is the best among child stars!

If everyone focuses their attention on Haley, it is undoubtedly a huge regret. Although he deserves this honor, Hugo Lancaster has shown a profound and wonderful performance in this movie. He shoulders the huge core of the entire movie alone, interpreting the heavy thoughts of life and death, trust, and social indifference with his wonderful performances. It is no exaggeration to say that Haley makes the movie complete, while Hugo makes the movie sublimated.

The biggest reason why the ‘Supernatural Sixth Sense’ is not just outstanding is that Hugo, a male actor who holds three seats in his hand, proves once again that his understanding of the role and interpretation of the core are now the world's largest.

Classic, this is indeed a classic horror movie, which makes people re-see the 'exorcist'-like glory. After watching the movie, will you believe in the existence of ghosts?"

Roger's comment obviously once again showed a unique and novel perspective. The interpretation of the "Supernatural Sixth Sense" can be said to make the quality of the movie a higher level. The 95-point evaluation can also show Roger's praise for this movie, and the four-star full-score recommendation shows his support for the movie.

Such a situation is not uncommon in drama winning works such as "Trumen's World" and "Los Angeles City Secret", but it is almost impossible for horror movies. Even the "Exorcist" and "Shirting" who are named as classics have never been able to reach such a height. This is also the limitation of horror movies. Behind the creation of thrillers and fears, it is difficult to leave more room to accommodate the ideological frenzy.

This is precisely the most unique thing about the "Supernatural Sixth Sense", and it is also the reason why the starring actors always think that this is not a horror movie.

Thanks to Hugo's participation, "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" was the focus of all media at the beginning of its release. After the screening, as many as thirty-five media outlets released film reviews at the first time. Such a scene reminds people of the grand occasion of "Star Wars Prequel 1: The Threat of the Ghost". What is even more commendable is that the criticism of "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" actually broke out a craze of praise in the controversy, making this work surpass the previous summer blockbusters and became the least commercial commercial work this summer. Such a situation is also a situation that everyone did not expect before the movie was released.
