Are you ready for the truth?

Unbreakable (2000)

unbreakable

Written and directed by the Indian born Manoj Night Shyamalan, Unbreakable hit the theaters in 2000. As a director this was his fourth film.

Within the first 10 minutes, it gets you involved after the lead character played by Bruce Willis survives a major train crash. He not only survives out of 130 odd passengers, but doesn’t even suffer a single scratch. He starts a journey to find if he could be a superhuman.

But, I find it hard to accept that one would be so memory-bad to ask someone “how many sick days I have taken?”. Would you not remember that you never had a single headache in your life?

I am yet to watch Lady in the water and The Happening of Shyamalan’s. Excluding these two in the list, I would say The Village was Shyamalan’s perfect followed by The Sixth Sense and Signs in no order.
