a movie to ponder

Rating: 9/10 (3 December 2000)

warning: this review contains spoilers. i'm really writing this to those who have seen the film.
shyamalan is proving himself to be a top notch writer. with unbreakable, he has given us some significant ideas to think on.
as i the credits rolled, i was wondering what shyamalan was saying about the relationship between good and evil. do they need each other to exist? maybe he's saying that evil creates the need for good and therefore actually creates the good. dunn never realized he had the capacity to be a "superhero" until elijah price "created" that side of him through a series of horrible terrorist like acts.
it is possible that the evil committed by price was good, since the end result was good. that's a fairly grim prospect. never the less it is a possibility that should be examined. in support of this theory is the fact that price was willing to lose his own freedom in order to create dunn's super hero. not only did price know that his crimes would be found out, he intentionally turned himself in. only once in the film did price seem to actually be evil. that was during the comic book store scene when he knocked over the all those comics.
i see this film as a new fangled "frankenstein". and if this the first act of a trilogy, as the rumors say, we will find out if price has created a monster.
