Summary: The best "comic book" movie yet...!
Review: Really. For those that know comics go beyond the two-dimensional worlds of the better known titles, UNBREAKABLE taps into the same vein as the Watchmen series - firmly grounded in the real world while stretching those boundaries just enough to make you believe in the extraordinary. As much as I loved SIXTH SENSE, Shyamalan has outdone himself with this one. Tightly-woven, deliberately paced, this movie will stick with you long after the final scene. And the DVD edition is a well-produced package with a great featurette on comic books, a behind-the-scenes segment, another self-effacing look at Shyamalan's "early work" and some other goodies. A must-own.

Summary: Unbeatable
Review: This was an excellent movie for those that enjoy story line and plot twists.Many will just compare it to the Sixth sense and never truly enjoy the film.But if you forget this and give the film a chance it will prove extraordinary.

Summary: Shyamalan Strikes Again!
Review: Following a similar style to "The Sixth Sense", "Unbreakable" is a thriller that hides the main "punch" until the end, and provides little hints to what that punch will be.The story tells of a man that escapes a train wreck, without a single scratch. He meets up with a man that is extremely prone to injury, due to a bone weakened disease. From there its up to you to find out.

Summary: Unbreak the ending
Review: If this movie hadn't come out so soon after "The Sixth Sense" I would not be comparing the two. Since it did, well.... The DVD features were pretty good, excellent in fact especially if you like comic books. Being a native Philadelphia I would have loved to see a little section on where in Philadelphia the movie was filmed. The movie itself was pretty good. I was disappointed in the ending. Very disappointed with the way M. Night Shyamalan wrapped things up especially since this was supposed to be a good -vs- evil deal. This is a good buy for the extras and to pick apart with couldas, shoulds.

Summary: The best comic book movie of ALL Time
Review: The only problem this movie has for a first time viewer is that they wait an hour and a half for the payoff, and when they get it, it feels less than satisfying. Seeing the movie for a second time, you realize just how brilliant this film is. It is the Anti-Matrix for comic book fans. It is a very stylish film- camera angles look to be lifted from graphic novels and comics; however there is little to no action. It's not a comic book movie about beating up the bad guys. It's a realistic comic movie wherein the protagonist slowly understands and believes his place in the world. That is much more interesting than a guy who had a messed up childhood and takes his anger out on all crooks in his rubber suit. If you are a first time viewer keep in mind throughout the film, this is an Origin story- a story where we are told how a man becomes a superhero. If you are a repeat viewer i hope you enjoyed this film as much as i did my second time. As far as the packaging goes, i'd give the disc a 9. If there was a commentary, i would have given it a 10. The movie is a 10, the dvd is a 9. Video and Audio quality is perfect. special features are cool. enjoy.

Summary: One third of a Movie
Review: This movie was one of the worst I have ever seen. I felt like they made an entire movie out of the first act of the story. The ending was predictable and very lame. I am really glad I didn't buy this DVD.

Summary: Not Expecting To Be As Good As 6th Sense & Liked Even Better
Review: I'm not usually a Bruce Willis fan by any means. I've read though that whenever he had to audition for a role, early in his career, he literally blew hundreds of other actors out of the water with his audition. I can believe he has that much talent based on this film and a few of his others. Here you can see it with an end scene he has, with the boy who plays his son in this movie, when he shares a newspaper article with him at the breakfast table. It is good to see Willis recently not wasting such talent on abysmal films. I've also been greatly disappointed by the junk movies Samuel L. Jackson has been in lately when his early roles showed such consummate ability. Thus, both actors took me by considerable surprise playing the mirror images of one another in this film, starting with Willis's character's being the sole survivor of a train wreck. Willis is all but unbreakable, like a superhero in a comic book, as he comes to discover with Jackson's help, whereas Jackson's bones break so easily he was called "Mr. Glass" as a kid. Jackson now runs an art gallery which features comic book art. Willis's character does not yet know his role in the universe whereas Jackson's seems to know the roles for both of them. Willis resists his theories mightily though. Writer-director M. Night Shyamalan also made "Sixth Sense" and I must credit him for having a wonderful imagination that doesn't just recycle and reuse Hollywood ideas already overused. He also can make a gripping film without using explosions, car crashes, gunfire, blood and guts and the other, more usual action-adventure props. Shyamalan is fascinated by comic books as both art form and myth maker and brings that fascination home to us. Robin Wright Penn and Spencer Treat Clark play Willis's wife and son. Shyamalan is very good at handling child actors in his films and Clark adds a lot to the story line with his belief in his father's powers. Robin Wright Penn is fast becoming the solid character actress upon whom directors can really rely. They probably picked up on that fact from her husband's (Sean Penn) using her in his films to marvelous effect.

Summary: Unbreakable?
Review: Hmmm... this is a strange one... For the first two thirds of this film, I was captivated: Original story idea with plenty of suspensful (?) moments. Samuel L Jackson's character is great and is a breath of fresh air from his usual roles. However, there was one point which seemed to be the most gratutitous example of product placement that I've ever seen (featuring a carton of Tropicana fruit juice), and from that point on it seemed to go comically downhill. The 'twist' at the end appeared obvious from about halfway through, and it all seemed to end quite abruptly. I was left feeling afterwards that the film was more of an introduction (similar to the X Men) rather than a complete work in itself. Obviously I would say to watch it and make up your own mind, but personally, I didn't think it was a patch on The Sixth Sense.

Summary: ..
Review: .... I consider "Unbreakable" one of the the best movies I have seen in the last few years. Most people who disliked the movie were looking for a fast action style movie and probably wanted David Dunn (Willis' character) to become a hero faster and fight an arch enemy setting the stage for countless bad sequels. Unbreakable is really the story of the modern world's first superhero, and how he struggles to come to terms with the fact that he is superhuman. I feel that Unbreakable portrays this in a great manner. It shows Dunn is not perfect. He has a crappy job, and is on the verge of splitting from his wife. He nearly cheats on his wife prior to the train wreck. He keeps his son at a great distance. Despite this, he knows there is something missing from his life. He doesn't know what it is, but he knows he is missing something. This makes him partially susceptible to the enigmatic Elijah Wood (aka Mr. Glass due to a genetic disorder that makes him particularly likely to break his bones). Both of these men seek to know what their place in the world is supposed to be, and Wood (Samuel L. Jackson) hopes to use Dunn to finally find his place. The DVD has several great features including deleted scenes, and 2 documentaries among other features.

Summary: If you liked Sixth Sense, hold on to your chonies!
Review: How do I begin. I don't write good reviews about bad films. I don't look for the one good scene that redeems the bad. I used to do Sci-Fi book reviews, and believe me, that was tough. Okay, if you think there is such a thing as the sophomre jinx, think again. I cannot tell you how deeply this second film by Shyamalan affected me. And yes, this film AFFECTS you. The complaints about lack of action? Forget them. This is not a Die Hard flick. This is an incredible film Hitchcock would praise and profess jealousy. Bruce Willis does NOT have to destroy cities to be a great leading man. He ACTS. Willis portrays the same sort of character as his role in the Sixth Sense: a character with depth, feelings, and a certain talent I shall not name. He ACTS. As does Samuel L. Jackson. He is...Oh, wait 'til the ending! If you think Mahler symphonies lead you around corners, so does this film. The soundtrack takes you by the nose and shoves your emotions in the right directions. The camerawork takes you by the hand, and shows you what it wants you to see (I don't want to spoil this for you, but remember how the color red was so important in Sixth Sense?). I am a Willis fan, but I also know his dogs. This is NOT one of them. Mucho Kudos to Shymalan. He has earned a true fan of his movies (now 2, and both of them damn near brought me to tears), and anyone who watches his films and cannot feel the empathy they exude, needs to go back to pumping gas at the local Exxon in Nobuttocks Utah. Unbreakable, is Near Flawless. You will watch this movie, you will NOT get up to hit the john, and you will understand the true meaning of cinemagraphic momentum. I guarantee it. And I am never wrong. Word is, this is the first of a trilogy. God, I hope so...
