Unbreakable (2000) 6/10

Starring : Bruce Willis, Samuel L Jackson, Robin Wright Penn, Spencer Treat Clark
Director : M Night Shyamalan
Running Time : 102 mins

Following a terrible train crash which leaver 131 people dead, David Dunn (Willis) finds himself the sole survivor, getting away without so much as a scratch. He is soon approached by a wheelchair bound man named Elijah Price (Jackson), who has come up with a far fetched theory about why Dunn survived, a theory connected to Price’s own current predicament.

Although this was a pretty interesting concept for a movie, and both Willis and Jackson play their respective roles well, there’s something a little less than satisfying about this science fiction based thriller. Shyamalan seems to be trying too hard to repeat the success of The Sixth Sense by filling the movie with twists and turns, but none of them work as well as those in his movie debut, a comparison which Shyamalan will have to live with for the rest of his career.
