makes no sense!

Rating: 3/10 (21 July 2001)

a great example of sensationalism in modern cinema, "unbreakable" exists solely to manipulate your emotions - and as a money-making endeavor for the filmmakers - with absolutely no emphasis on plot. i was lost in a jumble of murky, dark images and suspenseful music. the characters were unsympathetic, in my opinion: the rat-faced joseph was obnoxious, bordering on psychopathic, and the creepy elijah should, after living with congenital osteoporosis for an unspecified number of years, know better than to chase someone down a flight of stairs using a glass tube for support. most of elijah's "theories" seemed vague and nonsensical, and audrey's circular ramblings about her relationship problems were interminable. what semblance of a plot i could find amidst the haze was far too contrived to constitute a succesful film.
