It's kinda sad how many people can relate to that. But, this movie has one subtle message that I wonder if people get, especially since Heath Leger's portrayal of The Joker... If David is meant to be the real life personification of the lore and mythos of the superhero, does it stand to reason, is it the balance of the universe, that Glass is meant to be an arch villain? After all, there is God and Satan. There is good and evil. There are the different ends of the spectrum. I wonder because, if Evil is as natural as Good, that means it's innate. And if it's innate, is there anything anyone can do about it? Aside from what Dexter's dad did. haha

What I really love about this film is that it treats the idea of being a superhero very sincerely. In most superhero fiction, the hero treats their origin story like it's kind of an awesome fun ride, but this movie knows that discovering something like that about yourself would be scary and hard to comprehend. It essentially takes what would be the first act of a traditional superhero film and turns it into the whole movie. Plus the color palette and the music and the mood of the whole film is just superbly done. I still think it's Shyamalan's best film.

Well most superhero origins in movies the character either is aware that something has changed or they knew they were different from the get go. In my opinion This origin story seems to carry more weight and drama because this guy has been a hero/super his whole life he just either never noticed or was in a very deep denial. So when he does begin to notice, it questions everything he understood as “solid fact” and shocks him to his very core.

@@tbmin3d It's more like he's trying to prove the concept rather than it being purely about bringing forth a hero (although bringing forth a hero is a means to an end as it provides him purpose) You are looking at him as though he traded 100s to bring forth a hero as if he thought it were a fair trade but it's not about numbers (to him)- he'd have carried on killing until he proved his premise because the premise 'That comic books are exaggerations of a real phenomenon" was what was most important to him. Remember, his logic and reason is twisted. He isn't a good person, he knows that, he is selfish in wanting to find his own purpose, regardless of the human cost. He found his role as the villain and villains kill. They often reveal the hero, bringing him forth by killing innocents. In this case he would have sacrificed as many as it took. Point being it's not about trade offs and because of that what you consider as illogical reasoning on his part is in fact logical to him.

Strong disagree. The Sixth Sense twist literally gave Shyamalan a career, this twist was tacked on, at best, for that reason. Mr. Glass orchestrating all these tragedies was not nearly as subtle or as relevant as Malcolm Crowe's is. Rewatching Sixth Sense once you know that he's dead the whole time gives the entire film a whole different meaning; rewatching Unbreakable, knowing the twist, doesn't really change much (and the text-only ending hurts it further). Not to say that this isn't a truly great film -- I LOVE this movie. I'm glad it came out before the superhero boom -- this is as close to real as superhero films can be and it wouldn't be made today (Glass being what it is...). But it works not because of the twist, but because of the characters and story, something Shyamalan forgot after The Village (totally underrated film with a twist that actually impacts the rest of the story). The scenes in the kitchen are the most important ("friends don't shoot each other" and when Dunn shows his son the newspaper headline); Mr. Glass being behind all these tragedies is peripheral, at best. Again, great film, one of my favourites. Top three in the best non-franchise superhero films (number one with a...bullet...is Iron Giant, obviously). Not even close to "best twist" though. If you take that part out, nothing really changes. Mr. Glass could have just been paying attention to the news and the real story (the story of Dunn and his family) plays out the same. That's not to say that Mr. Glass isn't an excellent antagonist, brilliantly portrayed, the point of a well-written antagonist being to force the protagonist to face a challenge -- but that would be true whether he orchestrated a bunch of mass murders or if he saw a newspaper headline and decided Dunn was a comic book superhero. The twist changes nothing -- Mr. Glass was right all along and then he was right all along.

Instead of being centered in some fantastical world where anything is possible, it is the most ordinary extraordinary story. It's not even the full story, It's the first act. It's understated, about ordinary people and has way more of an emotional impact than I ever expected...so glad that your movie watcher side enjoyed it!

Its not flashy but has a sense of realism and emotionally depth that you cant fin in the marvel/dc films. "I now know who i am, i wasnt a mistake, they called me Mr. Glass" the these lines still get me. Buckle up for Split and Glass because its going to be a wild ride ❤

I think it's a movie that you have to know what you're actually in for before watching. When I was younger, people described it to me as a "superhero movie", and I walked away feeling very bored, and disappointed, because my expectations weren't met (I generally do not enjoy suspenseful movies). That isn't a fault of the film, but because I was lead to expect it to be like a Marvel movie, which it isn't. This is arguably a suspense movie with subdued fantastical elements, but it's not what most think of when they think of a superhero movie. That's neither a good thing, nor a bad thing. It's just if you go in expecting action, and get suspense, and slow/deliberate pacing instead, you'll likely feel let-down. Brandon Sanderson talks a lot in his writing classes about meeting the audiences expectations, and I think that's where this film falls flat for most because they are told to expect it to be something it is not. While the movie has superhero *themes*, it doesn't have most of things associated with superhero movies; namely non-stop action. If someone told you to expect a rom-com before watching Psycho, you'd probably feel tricked afterward, too. I did enjoy it better this time through with Cassie, but I also already knew from prior viewing that it's not remotely the kind of movie most would lead you to believe, so I didn't have the wrong expectations going into it.

He can exert more and more force, and his body just won't break. Which makes his chokehold on the Orange Man so satisfying. There was absolutely nothing that bastard could have done to get out, and David would have eventually popped his head off

We watched this movie in a college film class and then discussed how masterfully M. Night made this film look and sound like a comic book. Of course the villain is called Mr. Glass, while the protagonist (David Dunn) has a classic alliterative name (like Peter Parker, Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Lex Luther, etc). And of course the COLORS. Super heroes and villains often have a set color scheme, and that plays out here too. Elijah Price is very obviously purple and royal blue (his cane, his shoes as he steps off the train in the flashback, the tissue paper wrapping his very first comic, etc). David is green (the poncho, his kitchen, the color of his locker, his son's shirt when he slides the newspaper over, etc). And in the scenes where David is coming into his powers, the flashes that he sees are very comic booky: dull drab colors except for the pop of color that the focal person is wearing. Being an M. Night film, the camera work is interesting as well, which you noticed. The first scenes with Elijah are both shown reflected in glass (the mirror, the TV). The way the curtains flutter as the orange-wearing janitor sneaks up on David on the balcony. SO WELL DONE. I love this film. I think some of his later films were such flops that people forget how great his first few were.

Probably my favorite M. Night film. I mean Sixth Sense is a classic and Signs was probably his scarier outing but, Unbreakable clearly had a lot of passion in it. It came out two years before the first Spiderman and was kind of one of the first in the superhero movie line, M.Night says in interviews with the studio he wasn't even allowed to market it that way and was told to avoid the words "Comic Book" and "Superhero" for any of the marketing material so they set it up as more of a Thriller at first. There were some early 90s ones like Batman, the original Punisher, Darkman, TMNT, The Rocketeer (Sort of), The Crow, Blade... But then this rolls around in 2000 and a couple years later we got the first Spiderman and all the others that followed. Hulk, Daredevil, Spiderman, Etc all within the next few years. To say this didn't have at least something to do with it would be a huge disservice to the movie and the time it came out in.

That's probably more coincidental. Movies takes years to write, do pre-production for, shoot/re-shoot/do pickups, edit, distribute, etc. I wouldn't be surprised if that first batch of superhero movies following Unbreakable were at least in pre-production before it came out. I think it more likely had to do with the technology. This was also just after George Lucas pushed for digital cameras to film the Star Wars prequels. Shooting/editing digitally is far cheaper than shooting on film, so I'm sure that had a big impact on the financial viability of superhero movies, and their inflated budgets. It's hard to argue this had a big impact on superhero movies just a few years later given that most didn't even know what this movie was when it came out.

It's kind of crazy how long into the movie it took before it dawned on us. It seems we aren't the only ones though. I don't think it really clicks for people until you see him in his "costume" everything comes together and he looks like a badass superhero. The moment he steps out of the pool and the music kicks in is when you know for sure. There's always enough to doubt. He also may be strong and doesn't get hurt but that doesn't mean he's nessicarily super human. There could have ended up being some explanation for it.

I haven't even seen the reaction, going for it now, but I already thank you for watching this and possibly passing this gem to other people that had no idea :)))

l LOVE how slow and deliberate and understated this was. It was SO suspenseful.
