Plot, actors, and overall movie were all incredible

Rating: 9/10 (30 June 2001)

Unbreakable is one of those rare movies that left me staring silently at the screen as the credits scrolled. The movie is extremely well done from nearly every angle. The plot has a very comic-book feel, almost as if it were pulled from a first issue. Samuel L. Jackson's portrayal as the fragile opposite of Bruce Willlis's "Unbreakable" character was perfectly executed. These two actors were superb in their dynamic relationship throughout the movie, and as I think back to the scenes between them, I am reminded of the dialogues between Hannibal Lector and Clarice Starling from The Silence of the Lambs. This type of story had many subtle effects that show the pure writing and directing genius of M. Night Shyamalan. Overall, a movie most certainly worth watching with undivided attention.
