It was good...if you are into comics

Rating: Null/10 (24 November 2000)

Unlike Batman, and Superman where the average film goer can go and enjoy a superhero flick without any real interest in comic books, UNBREAKABLE requires you to have an enthusiasm for a superhero's human side. You must care about his personal life and how his powers affect him and his family. This isn't a movie for those seeking action and adventure. If you are going into this thinking it's going to be another Sixth Sense - you'll be sorry. If you have an appreciation for the chemistry of Jackson and Willis, an appreciation for a way a film is shot, and an appreciation for some intrigue, then you won't be let down. It's kind of slow...but I don't think anything could have been done differently to develop the characters. This was an entire origin story - not like Batman where we see him fight crime and learn how he came to be through flashbacks.
He could have used some of the extra Sixth Sense money and showed the train wreck though.
