Shyamalan does it again!

Rating: Null/10 (30 September 2002)

I went into the cinema expecting to see laboured follow up to the "Sixth Sense", what I got instead was a truly original riveting story. First off, I would like to establish that I am a comics fan, so I would probably appreciate this story a lot more than someone who has never read or never wants to read a comic bomic in their life. Bruce Willis plays a truly captivating roles as ther lead character, he combines the right elements of unwillingness and disbelief to create a character who might as well be real. Meanwhile, Samuel L Jackson plays almost the opposite of Willis's character, which he does perfectly with very little hesitation in sinking into such a cunning role. Those two excellent actors preformances amplified by an outstanding script and director makes Unbreakable a treat fotr the mind, something which tries to take Superheros away from the tight spandex and laser bolts of fiction to the girtty realism of every day life. Also, I think it is important to ad that the ending, however not as shocking as in the Sixth sense, was a truly great twist for the story. It seems Shyamalan really did his research for this film and it pays off big time!
