Summary: "ARE YOU READY FOR THE TRUTH?"
Review: "Unbreakable" is not only as good as "The Sixth Sense," but in some ways is superior. It has a great storyline, dizzying cinematography, and great acting by Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, Spencer Treat Clarke and Robin Wright Penn. The DVD, the first released as a part of the "Vista Series" line of DVD's, isn't the greatest, but it is done well. The special features include: -deleted scenes;
-a behind-the-scenes featurette;
-a featurette on comic books and superheroes, and;
-a look at the train station sequence from several different angles! Currently, I own three "Vista Series" DVD's: "Pearl Harbor-The Director's Cut;"
"Tombstone-The Director's Cut;" and
"Unbreakable." Good one for the DVD collection! Movie Grade: A+ (5 Stars); DVD Grade: B+ (4 Stars)

Summary: My favorite of this genre.
Review: Unbreakable is really quite a beautiful movie. Currently my favorite "superhero" movie because of the dark yet, profoundly understated quality of the entire movie. The acting is also uniformly very good. Curiously realistic unlike any other film of this genre and certainly more artsy. Am dissappointed that some of the critics weren't as hypnotized by this movie as I was. Very talented filmmaker. ps. This ain't your Arnold Schwarzenagger blowing up the eastern hemisphere type of movie. Much more subtle.

Summary: One of the Top 10 under-rated movies of all time
Review: This disc is amazing. Writer-director M. Night Shyamalan stunned us with "The 6th Sense" and tops himself with "Unbreakable". I thought it was a great movie when I first saw it, but upon seeing it 18 months later I think it is a masterpiece.
Enough about the movie. The disc is brilliant. Shyamalan's introductions to the deleted scenes are very insightful. I love seeing and hearing an artist talk about his work especially someone as smart as he is. The scenes themselves are astonishing. The scene with the priest and the flashback in the carnival are 2 of the best things he has ever created. I hope we see a longer version of this movie with these deleted scenes re-edited into it. The 20 minute featurette "Comic Books and Super Heroes" is fascinating. I was really happy to see Frank Miller and Dave Gibbons included in it. The "making of" piece is very cool. This disc gives you more bang for the buck than just about any other disc you'll buy. The only thing it lacks is an audio commentary or 2 and normally for an audio commentary [buff] like me this would've been a serious drawback, but it wasn't because every deleted scene counted for something (most deleted scenes are throwaways). The sound quality is superb. A lot of thought and effort went into this disc and it pays off. This a a great disc.

Summary: Another good film from shyamalan
Review: After reading some negative reviews of "Unbreakable" I didn't have high expectations when I recently watched it, which goes to prove one thing - whatever the film, make up your OWN MIND about it. Needless to say, I enjoyed this a lot. As with the director's last movie, The sixth sense (TSS), Shyamalan gives the audience another "twist" at the end of the film. I won't give it away, but it's not as good as the one found in TSS, which instantly made the viewer want to watch the movie again. The twist in Unbreakable also seems a little less credible, but it's the journey to this twist that was highly enjoyable, and keeps the viewer hooked until it happens. Samuel L.Jackson is - as ever - great, sporting one of the coolest/funkiest/craziest (take your pick) hairdos in cinema history!. Bruce Willis is also good, though he'll never be accused of over-acting, and virtually reprises his role from TSS. Nevertheless, Willis is our (the viewer) guide through the movie. The supporting cast is also worth a mention - Robin Wright Penn (the wife), and a very impressive Spencer Treat Clark who plays the son. I loved the visual style of the film, the mood & atmosphere, and in particular the way some of the scenes were shot, from the excellent opening sequence, to Jackson's tumble down the stairs. Some people have criticized the film for it's lack of action sequences, but this isn't even something that occurred to me while watching it. As with TSS, it's just not the sort of film you expect to see any, and I didn't. This is not to say it won't hold your attention - it will. From the opening sequence with the newborn baby, to the Spencer Treat Clark-with-gun scene, right through to the twist/end credits. For me, the only scene that started to drag a little was the weight lifting scene wth Willis, this could of been trimmed down a little. The best of the deleted scenes on the DVD is the fairground one with Elijah as a boy, which you'll bound to wince when watching!. All in all a good movie. It may not have the shock twist ending that TSS had, but it does have great direction, script, acting and cast. If you haven't yet seen Unbreakable and you liked TSS, what's your excuse?.

Summary: M. Night is a Modern Film Guru
Review: I really enjoyed this movie. It had an eery pace to it that picked up as the the story progressed. I loved the acting and directing and the story of a normal man who finds out that he is not so normal after all. I love stories based on real fantasy. That is a story that is based in our time and place, but will have a supernatural twist to it. this movie shows great emotion and human reaction to the fantastic.

Summary: Horrible
Review: I'm a big fan of Shyamalan and The 6th Sense
but this film was so full of nothing with a ridiculous
"shock" ending that it was all we could do to
restrain ourselves from laughing out loud in pain
while we were watching it. Worst unintentionally bad film since "The Comfort of Strangers".

Summary: Not knowing your place in the world is the scariest thing ..
Review: If you watch this film with Bruce Willis and Sam Jackson you'll find that the film maker has an opinion of fans of comics. After I saw this I'd say he makes a statement that comics fans are an isolated bunch. That isn't true. It's movies like this one that gives comics fans a bad name. It's a film about an art collector that focuses on Willis because he survived a train disaster. Jackson's character has a genetic defect that makes his bones break. Turns out (Willis) is like a super hero because he never gets sick. I watched this film expecting it to be part of comic book story. My only dissappointment was that the film maker never got what I thought was good looking comic covers and art to display in the film. The art in this film doesn't reflect the styles and art of the periods shown in the film.
Rating:
Summary: Unbearable
Review: This movie is so bad it is unbelievable. Bruce Willis goes for subtle - which means all he does in this film is whisper. Anyway - it proves that there are movies worse than the idiotic Sixth Sense. I was fortunate enough to see it for free on a flight; don't waste any money on this turkey.

Summary: The Birth of a Hero
Review: What if comic books were, in fact, based on real people in the world. Exaggerated, yes, but based in the world nonetheless. That is what Elijah Price (played by Samuel L. Jackson) believes. You see, Elijah has a disease that causes his bones to break with the greatest of ease. He is convinced that there is someone out in the world that is just the opposite of him, whose bones don't break. He eventually finds that person in David Dunn, the sole survivor in a deadly train crash. David not only survives the train crash, but he walks away with not a single scratch on him. "Unbreakable" is a dark, eerie movie that takes you through the birth, so to speak, of a hero. This is not a casual movie where you can half watch it and still be able to understand what is going on. Instead, you have to pay very close attention to this movie to catch everything that is in it. The only real criticism I have of this movie is the constant use of dark in the scenes. I understand the concept of lighting and how it is used to create an atmosphere within the movie. But there are several extended scenes that are hard to see what is going on because of the lack of lighting. For some, any change in this would ruin the movie. To me, it would have helped me to appricate it more. This is a very good movie to add to your collection. I have seen it multiple times now, and each time I find something new to appreciate.

Summary: Somewhat a dissappointment
Review: After "Sixth Sense", I was expecting a twirl of senses at the end of this movie. I did'nt necessarily enjoy this movie. The mystery and science fiction was gone.. Bruce Willis plays a superhuman loser and most of his experiences are downers. Hardly worth a rental.
