I enjoy it more than the Sixth Sense, because I find it a bit more rewatchable.
He doesn't have superpowers in the sense that he would recognize them. His power is very subtle. Not like flying and x-ray vision.
That's the film's biggest problem in a way - the story would have had bigger impact if his powers were less subtle, but then you'd lose the element of uncertainty about whether he really had powers or not.
So it's a balancing act and they got it about right.
Also about the ending - maybe we saw a different version in Europe but I don't remember any captions?
Unbreakable, like the Sixth Sense and, to a lesser degree, Memento, hinge upon the Big Surprise Ending that's supposed to shock us.
I disagree with this. For me, this movie is about the process, not the resolution.
It seems to be a movie that either you like or you don't. I've not seen many ambivalent reactions to it.
6ht sense and unbreakable. one word. MARVELLOUS!
I saw both and had the exact opposite reaction from above. I thought Bruce Willis acted like he was on sedatives through both films.
