The subsequent performance of "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" is just as Wang Yifan said.

The box office on the first day exceeded 20 million US dollars.

No accidents were unexpectedly won the single-day box office championship.

And the audience has a very good reputation.

Although the critics did not praise the film's artistic achievements, they also praised the film.

This is not the era when film critics can greatly influence the box office.

Film critics should also make a living, and Hollywood is the same. In fact, Hollywood critics' public relations are also public.

Larry Meg, a famous Hollywood film critic, wrote a long review for "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" in the Los Angeles Times' personal column.

"The Sixth Sense of Supernatural Sense" is a rare and surprising masterpiece this year, and it is worthy of being a joint work of two top directors.

Let us imagine why a little boy named Cole, who is less than ten years old, depends on his mother, has an indifferent and sensitive look that should not belong to his age.

He is indifferent because he is rejected by his peers, and he is sensitive because of the fear that keeps gushing out from deep inside him.

Cole is a strong child. But I can't even bear to say this seemingly ordinary word. How much pain and fear is his young heart endured behind it.

"I can see dead people..." When Cole curled up in the quilt and told the secret to Dr. Malcolm who he trusted in a trembling voice, his crystal eyes were filled with irresistible tears. He was finally able to release himself and take down some of the burden he shouldn't have to bear, because he finally found someone who trusted him.

Boys of his age should have enjoyed happy times naively and were not very clear about the meaning of death under the care of their parents, and should have been in harmony with friends of the same age. However, these do not belong to Cole. I don’t know when he began to find himself unique, but it is undeniable that this is a cruel process.

When he suddenly realized one day that the strange scenes he had seen since childhood made him feel more and more uneasy and even feared.

When he suddenly realized one day that not everyone could see the terrifying "characters" that would appear at any time.

When he suddenly discovered that one day he would get the same strange look when he told anyone around him about these fears.

He began to remain silent. He no longer opened his heart to anyone, even his mother. He forced himself to face these terrifying things that he could not explain. Of course, he loved his mother, and he knew that his mother loved him too. But even so, he understood that his mother would not understand the real reason that scared him. He could not overcome those fears, but he didn't want his mother to worry, so he would ask his classmates he didn't like to pretend to go to school with him every day.

He is a sensible child. His father's premature death made him think about his mother more often, and even when facing inner fear, he did not forget to think from the perspective of others.

But no matter how strong or sensible he is, he is just a child under ten years old!

When his classmates made a prank and trapped him alone in the dark loft, he saw what he was most reluctant to face. His fear of trying to hide made him cry and faint.

After he suffered the ridicule and strange eyes of the people around him, the almost unresistible inferiority complex made him doubt himself. He already understood his differences, but he could not explain why all this was. "Are you really a monster?" This thought made him unable to bear it and he was not shivering.

In reality, many of our families also have the same situation as Cole. However, maybe they are not able to see ghosts like Cole, but they have various ideas that adults don’t understand, because adults always feel that children’s words are rude and children’s words are no big deal. We are very busy at work, so how can we have time to communicate seriously with our children?

Fortunately, Cole met Dr. Malcolm, which was different from anyone who used to treat him as a monster. He didn't have the strange look that made him hate when he looked at him. He talked to him like a friend, taught him bad little magic, and most importantly, he would listen carefully to every word he said. In the dark, he felt that this person was the only person who could help him.

In fact, Malcolm did not believe in this autistic child at first. He analyzed what kind of mental illness he suffered from with a doctor's inertial thinking. But he didn't want to hurt him. He carefully tried to peek into his inner secrets. He wanted to use a tactful way to avoid the issue of trust, but he failed. His wife's alienation of him upset him, and Cole's performance made him feel that he could not heal him. He decided to give up.

I once said that what I fear most was the expression of the child's disappointed and hurt, just like the helpless and innocent look of King Kong lying on the island in front of his beloved An. So when Cole cried and begged the doctor to stay for him, I could even feel the only sound of hope rising in his heart being torn apart a little bit, extremely cruel.

Fortunately, this is a warm story. Malcolm heard something strange from the recording of the patient treatment. After tracing the truth, he finally believed Cole completely. It was this kind of trust that had never been seen before that once again infected Cole, who was already dead. He suppressed his inner fear and began to try to communicate with the ghosts that kept appearing, and found that as the doctor said, they were asking for help. So, in the face of changes, Cole helped a dead little girl who had been appearing by his side. More importantly, the doctor finally helped him untie the magic button in his heart. He understood his specialness, and he also understood his mission. He overcame the fear and he grew up.

This is actually not a supernatural film, but a story about communication and warmth of family.

Parents should watch this movie well and see if we usually ignore communication with our children!”

Actually, as Larry Meg said, this is indeed a story about communication and family.

However, in real society, there are too few patient parents like Malcolm.

In the movie, Cole's mother also loves her son and is also worried about the weirdness of her children, but she does not communicate with Cole.

And Cole, like most children, is worried that his only favorite person would be regarded as a freak like everyone else.

This is a very profound social problem, and it is also common.
