Tedious beyond imagination

Rating: Null/10 (8 July 2002)

I saw Unbreakable for the first time last night. I have just finished reading the comments about this film on IMD. Unfortunately, although it seems that I will be in a minority of one after writing this, I must say that I found this film totally, totally tedious. It is very rare for me to sit through a film willing it to end, but last night I did so. I just couldn't wait for it to finish. I'm afraid that watching Bruce Willis with his 'serious' expression pondering his situation through what seemed like indeterminable longeurs was more than I could stand. For me, the characters lacked any feature with which I could empathise and I really didn't care what happened to them. By the way, I'm not a kid who's bored if somebody's head doesn't explode every 20 seconds, but a middle aged professional - I'm sorry, folks, as far as I'm concerned, this is one boring movie and I hated it.
