Getting better with each viewing

Rating: 9/10 (19 December 2001)

I loved The Sixth Sense and so when I went to see Unbreakable on opening night, I had built up the movie so much that it would have been tough to meet my expectations. When I walked out of the theater, I have to admit I was disappointed. Then I saw it again, and I liked it more. Now I own the DVD and I love this movie. I don't own The Sixth Sense and don't plan on it. Unbreakable is so much deeper than Shyamalan's previous work and his camera angles and scripting are so innovative. The opening unedited train scene is just unique and you have to give credit to a man that is willing to try something new. He lets the characters and their emotions tell the story, not wordy dialogue and special effects. It's better than Sixth Sense because it stands as a good movie without the ending (which I like). A great movie.
