This movie was fun to watch but the ending was disappointing.

Rating: 8/10 (28 March 2003)

I thought Unbreakable was very interesting and was fun to watch. The idea of an ordinary man, at least seemingly so, turning out to have super human powers is always intriguing. This movie takes a look at the idea of what a super hero would be like in real life. The only problem with this movie was the ending. The "surprise" ending is predictable, and the very end, leaves the viewer unsattisfied. I feel like Shayamalan could have improved the ending by showing David taking on other "arch enemies." Even a short sequence showing him taking down other criminals would have been more satisfying. As it is I was left wondering what happened to David. Did he continue in his role as a "protector of the people" or did he decide to hang up his cape as the scene in his home implies.
