I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

My wife and I saw this come on and first thought it was just another movie or show that revolved around the paranormal without any really new ideas or elements. We almost changed channels but it caught our attention and by the time we were halfway through, we thought it was the beginning of a new series. The frankness of the acting and the subtle twists kept us wondering to the end! I don't like the TV show "Ghost Whisperer" as a concept, and I believe Mccarthy does a better job of dealing with his new-found gift. He does a convincing job of playing a guy who is coming to grips with his "talent" while trying to convince himself (and perhaps everyone else) that he isn't loosing his mind. The show comes across as a nice blend of mystery and suspense. Too bad there's nothing further! We thought for sure their would be at least a sequel.

Found this film to be quite enjoyable, considering it dealt with the spirit world and spirits that need a place called home. There is a serial killer loose and Andrew McCarthy,(Michael Lewis),"The Orphan King",'05, gets himself involved with the restoring of a very old Mansion and opens up boxes which contain all kinds of problems he has to face. Michael eventually gets assistance from Detective Pryce,(Amanda Redman),"Sexy Beast",2000, who resents Michael and thinks he is nuts and needs a shrink to solve his vision problems. If you like tales about the supernatural and spirit world this is a good film for you.

"The Sight" turned out to be a delight! It was a suspense movie about a serial killer...with a supernatural twist. The protagonist helps find the killer by utilizing his "sight", given to him by a dying woman. He has the ability to communicate with the dead. What better way to find out who the killer is than to talk to his victims?This movie was entertaining throughout the entire duration (which was only 90 minutes). The acting was superb, the entire movie was fast-paced, and the plot played with my mind and kept me at the edge of my seat. The last fifteen minutes left me saying "holy sh!t" , while the clever comic relief left me giggling. One of the best surprise endings I've seen, aside from "The Sixth Sense" and "The Others". I am extremely picky about the types of movies I enjoy...and this one was great. Don't let the fact that it was made for TV scare you off...it's better than most Hollywood blockbusters.

I saw this movie yesterday on Canal+, and was amazed. Not so much of the movie but the fact that Canal+ hadn't spoiled it in any of their magazines. I watched the movie casually, (missed the first two minutes, so i didn't know that it was Paul Anderson's movie.) and was kinda surprised by the nice locations (cold, very cold, but nice anyhow), but later on i noticed some bad editing in the first half of the film which i think has something to do with the fact that it's a TV-movie. (Yeah i know about the fade-outs and that's not what i mean about "bad editing".) The Sight begins as a Sixth Sense/Stir of Echoes story with occasional The Haunting vibes but gradually developes into a murder/mystery story with a supernatural twist. The editing and the feel of the movie changes and becomes a more than average movie, filling you with a taste for more and finally explodes in your face with a twist ending that has become some sort of a trademark for Paul Anderson. I like this movie, it feels like a light version of something Clive Barker would write, and i hope that a sequel will be made and that Paul Anderson keeps on doing what he's so good at; creating a good story.
