Unbreakable

A couple hours ago I saw this movie after a long time. I find it -again-very compelling and great in every sense.

Maybe because I love comic books. Loved Jackson s and Willis performances.

What do you think of it?

I actually prefer it to The Sixth Sense. It's one of Willis' best IMO.

Enjoyed it, particularly Samuel Jackson's acting, which I usually am not very keen about (Mace Windu?)

It think M.Night Shamalayahajldnelahhdjedayan tries to be too clever, and most of the time something with great potential becomes cheese. ("swing away"?)

I also thought it was great. It's a little slow at times, but I definitely prefer it to Sixth Sense. It's probably only behind Signs in terms of my fave M. Night films. Probably because those two films are the only ones where I didn't see the twist coming from a mile away.

Don't get me started.

The first time I saw sixth sense I though it was pretty good, but it really has no rewatchability. Unbreakable, on the other hand, is actually a descent film that could be rewatched despite already knowing the twist.

That's actually a good point and have found that true myself.

The Sixth Sense I feel is somewhat overrated, but on the acting front, particulary the mother and the kid, are Academy Award material, IMO.

I like it, I thought the sixth sense was **** after solving the plot twist from watching just a trailer. The film was pretty hammy, and cliched and I dunno, didnt work for me.

I watched it (Unbreakable) again last night.

Having done so, there's a few bits that seem like they could almost have been effortlessly inserted into the plot of Heroes.

Probably doesn't hurt that I rewatched a random first-season episode of Heroes immediately beforehand.
