Unbreakable Movie Review

Rating:A-
Note:May be boing for kids. Read below.

I'm reviewing the movie Unbreakable released in 2000. I finally got around to watching it, 11 years late. This movie stars Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson, so I guess it was a pretty big deal at the time.

This what you call a "superhero drama". It is sort-of about a superhero, or someone who has the potential to be one. There are no special effects or expensive scenes. That said, the movie cost $75 to make. I can't figure out what cost that much money? The film ended up grossing about $250M.

Bruce Willis plays a depressed guy whose life is falling apart. He is the only survivor of a bad train wreck, not a scratch on him. He starts to wonder why he can't ever remember getting sick or injured.

The movie is intentionally slow, Bruce Willis' character is pretty much a sloth. Kids will NOT like this movie, there are no special effects or car chases (although there is a train wreck!). But adults will enjoy it if they know to expect a thoughtful drama, not a superhero movie.

There is no bad language or sex references. But there is some abduction violence. But Bruce saves the day - or does he?
