Unbreakable | Description: 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). Year: 2000 Classification: Thriller Directed: - M.Night Syamalan Actors/Actresses: - Bruce Willis as David Dunn - Samuel L Jackson as Elijah Price - Spencer Treat Clark - Robin Wright as Audrey Dunn - Charlayne Woodard A Superb Suspense Film! One That Will Keep You Thinking! The movie Unbreakable is going to be a classic, with a superb cast (Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, and Robin Wright Penn). But thats not all there is to Unbreakable. Its a really refreshing movie, that leaves out all the usual cliches, and a real abnormal plot. The movie is about David (Bruce Willis), who survives a train wreck, in which he was the only survivor. After the incident David is approached by a weird, comic book fanatic named Elijah (Samuel L. Jackson) who is the oposite of David, he is fragile, and he breaks his bones very easily. The stranger is persisten in decribing to David that he is a super-hero. In which the film starts getting very inticing. From writer and director of The Sixth Sense, comes a film that will really leave you breathless long after the credits roll.

Night Shyamalan followed "The Sixth Sense" with this offbeat film. While this film does not even come close to the brilliance of "Sixth Sense", it does hold it's own by itself. Bruce Willis stars as a family man whose marriage on the rocks. On a trip home on a train, the train is involved in a horrible accident. Everyone on board dies....except Willis. There's not a single scratch on him. He then begins to realize that he's never been sick, or has ever been really hurt. His son thinks he's some kind of superhero. Enter Samuel L. Jackson. He plays a comic book collector with a rare bone disease. His character tries to tell Bruce that he is indeed a superhero. I won't tell you what happens. You'll have to see for yourself. Shyamalan delivers the moddy colors and haunting shots like in "Sixth Sense". They work here as well. Jackson is really good in his role. Willis is really starting to become a 'real' actor. Everybody always thought he was some dimbulb action star. How wrong those people are. He is solid here. This movie is not going to be everyone's cup of tea. You'll either love it or absolutely hate it. You just have to remember one thing : It's just a movie. Delightful take on the Superhero genre A lot of people, I think, disliked this movie because it lacked action despite being about superheros. However, this was the entire point of M. Night Shayamalan's sophomore effort, and I think it worked out beautifully. Unbreakable is not the story of a man being a superhero, but of a seemingly ordinary man realizing that he is a superhero. It is, as Shayamalan's stories so far have been, a very personal, human story set in extraordinary circumstances. I think Bruce Willis has done his best work in this film and The Sixth Sense, also by Shayamalan, stretching himself to be more than just a funny action hero but also a credible dramatic actor. And Samuel L. Jackson is, as always, delightful in his role as the eccentric Elijah Price. James Newton Howard's score is perfect, and sets the mood beautifully in the many dialogue-free scenes. Whether you're a fan of superhero comics or good suspense drama, you owe it to yourself to see this movie.
