Respectable but not on the same level as The Sixth Sense

Rating: 6/10 (24 December 2000)

The Sixth Sense was a masterpiece for many reasons, not the least of which was the fact that all movie goers, from the young and uninitiated to the action flick fan to the sophisticated fan of art films, could enjoy the movie. It crossed all boundaries. Unbrakable is nowhere near that type of film, and was actually quite slow to develop, almost excruciatingly slow. The last half hour except for the abrupt and unfulfilling ending was much better. Lots of skill but it didn't come together the was The Sixth Sense did. Of course, a director/writer could go an entire career and not even have one The Sixth Sense. It is probably too much to expect a repeat.
