Movie Review: Unbreakable
Jan. 28th, 2012 10:22 pmI felt highly distracted during this movie - as soon as I saw that it was Bruce Willis and M. Night Shyamalan, all I could think was "If they find that he really did die in the accident and this is all some kid's strange perception of dead people, I am going to be so very pissed."
Ignoring that side of things, the movie really was quite good with Willis doing some of his best acting (that I've seen) and Jackson being suitably enigmatic right to the final brilliant moments. Overall, a thrilling movie with at least two outstanding scenes - the kitchen gun scene (I really wasn't sure where that one was going to go, right to the last second) and the pool cover scene (the sense of terror and helplessness was spot on the mark).
In the end, a damned good movie, probably the best of Shyamalan's movies that I've seen.
