Unbreakable

UNBREAKABLE stars Bruce Willis as David Dunne, a Philadelphia security guard and the sole survivor of a disasterous train wreck. Not only is David still alive after the crash--he's completely unharmed. After this miraculous incident, he's contacted by the mysterious Elijah Price (Samuel L. Jackson), a dealer of comic book art who seems to have the opposite physicality--his bones tend to snap like twigs. As Elijah attempts to help the reluctant hero realize his superhuman potential, David tries to make amends with his estranged wife (Robin Wright Penn) and son (Spencer Treat Clark).
Following the runaway success of THE SIXTH SENSE, writer-director M. Night Shyamalan once again teams up with Willis for another bleak supernatural tale with a surprising finale. Although Willis and Jackson are excellent in their roles, the highlights of the film are Eduardo Serra's cinematography and Shyamalan's direction, which are eerily atmospheric and inventive--in certain sequences, for example, entire scenes are shot as reflections on glass. UNBREAKABLE is a superhero film at heart, but Shyamalan's somber aesthetic transforms it into something far more intriguing.

    Superhero for grown ups

    A fine deeply satisfing film with a modern take on the comic book superhero. Bruce Willis puts in a remarkable performance as a security guard who has never had a days sick in his life, yet is unforfiled in his role as father and husband. Samuel Jackson is superb as a geeky comic/art studio owner in search of a vigilante/defender, and he gets to deliver one of his trade mark speeches,almost as good as Pulp Fiction.

    This film sents out to find in this era of Social and family moral break downs, a goodness to help us all.

    If you ever thought your dad was a Superhero, look again you might be right.
