How would you feel when finding out you're a "superhero"?

Rating: 9/10 (4 October 2001)

I saw the trailer to "Unbreakable" in cinemas several times, but unfortunately I missed to see this superb film, so I got the DVD the day it was in stores. M. Night Shyamalan is a great writer, director, storyteller, Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson show some great acting - Willis shows again that he's not only able to play action-heros, but also reserved people, like David Dunn in Unbreakable. And what to say 'bout Sam Jackson - Pulp Fiction, Shaft, Jackie Brown, Star Wars - it just seems that this guy can play everything, from cool ex-Cop to wise Jedi-Knight - fantastic. The movie itself is some kind of calm and quiet, but not boring - don't get me wrong, not even one second in my opinion it is boring, it's very interesting to see David realize what he really is.
David Dunn is the only survivor in a fatal train crash, and step by step he has to find out that he's some sort of "different". He was never ever sick, never hurt, not even after the train crash, not one single scratch on his skin - and from that point on he realizes he's not like other human beings. He's some kind of a superhero...but I suggest to watch the movie - this is much better than just reading my comment ;-).
I give it 9 out of 10 - very good film.
