- What if Superman lived on earth...and didnt know he was Superman? M. Night Shyamalan followed up his smash debut with Unbreakable. Way ahead of its time, Unbreakable deconstructs and grounds the traditional comic book origin story and tells you the story of two men searching for their place in this world. Is this unique take on the comic book genre still relevant in today's comic book saturated world?

The most subtle superhero origin story ever.
Absolutely
I just finished watching “Unbreakable” and “Split”. I actually got teared up at the end inspired by David Dunn showing the newspaper clipping to his son and mouthing “You were right.” Just the way that scene was acted and his son was tearing up too. And that inspiration for David seeped into my sadness for Elijah. Even though you realize
Elijah is a villain at the end, it breaks your heart that his purpose is fulfilled, but he has to punished for what he’s done. Elijah is the ultimate sympathetic villain.
Also the score is just awesome. Totally agreed.
They Called me Mr. Glass.....
I saw this in the theaters. One of my favorites of all time. Why can’t the sham hammer make every film this good?!
And yes sir that score gives me chills every time I hear it.
I think he has made lots of great films. I just think he stayed went a little too hitchock-ish for people. I really loved Signs, Devil, Lady in the Water, Split, The Visit, and hell, even After Earth wasn't that bad. The Happening was too bad either. I just wasn't a huge fan of Mark Whalberg's acting in it. But I think Night wanted that because that film was a huge call back for a B movie.
@@rupman27isbackwhat about avatar?
The music while hes choking the guy out...my goodness. Still gives me chills. Great movie, great review, and awesome shirt!
Me too. Everytime!
I personally think the colours add a hell of a lot to Unbreakable, in my opinion its the little details that transform a good film into a great film. Great review!
Thank you
I love watching *UNBREAKABLE (2000)*
Absolutely Fantastic Film !!!
DavyDevilution it isn’t fantastic
It’s a masterpiece
Yessir!! It’s Awesometacular
Amazing review, Cody. Unbreakable is one of my all time favorite flicks. Glad to see it's getting some appreciation after all these years. Keep up the great work. 😀
This is the highest rating I've ever seen u give a movie. But it deserves every point it gets
Great review Cody. Just rewatched Unbreakable and Split the other day for the 3rd time and love both of them. Both are Excellent film's and I'm really looking forward to seeing Glass hope it's a good conclusion to this trilogy.
I hope so too
i love this movie ! I hope glass does it justice
me too!
Deborah U it didn’t :(
@@rickw1066 how come?
Battle Rifle it just didn’t hold up to unbreakable or even split. Like I’ve said before I personally don’t feel it’s as bad as critics are saying but it’s still a little disappointing
Never seen this movie but I liked Split for the most part, and I'm pissed that James McAvoy didn't receive an award for his performance!!!
Ashamed to say I’ve never seen it... I’ve seen split and loved it so I think I’ll go back and watch this tonight
Dope Pet Semetary shirt!! Going to see this this weekend. Stoked!!!
This is M. Night's masterpiece thus far.
It's funny cause I remember people constantly putting this movie down calling it boring and I could never understand that cause I loved it , a real life super hero and it was people not being patient as usual they want everything fast and spooned fed .
Agreed my favorite of his...I feel I understood it was ahead of its time and was happy knowing that. Favorite scene is the bench press test of how much he could bench.
One of my favourite superhero movies of all time. It has such a unique, complex and subtle story told in the form of a superhero origin story.
The postman delivers the goods again with a fantastic passionate review of this underrated mkvie.
TBH I didn't think much of this first watch it was only rewatching it on DVD that I appreciated the greatness of the script & performances by the cast, this film hooked me more & more ipon repeated re watches & I agree it's on par with Signs & Sixth Sense as classic Shyamalan
A cinematic piece of art I watched it again the other day on an old DVD and then almost immediately bought the blu ray
I have not seen Unbreakable. Has been on my list since i watched Split. Will have to give it a go before i tune into Glass. Great Review Cody!
I watched this film the other day for the first time since its release. I didnt really acre for it back then but wow i really loved it this time. Like you said so ahead of its time. Now is the perfect time to watch this.
However my one negative would be that the guy who pushed him over the balcony didnt go down to check on him or try and get more reason as to why he was in the house which led to his downfall.
Apart from that amazing!
Unbreakable is underrated
Saw this movie theaters...not knowing what I was in store for. This is one of the all time greats! I left the theatre with my mind blown! My only hope was that other people would discover this masterpiece! God bless you for reviewing this film!
Side note ... church!!! Your wardrobe is better than mine
Lol Gotta stay classy
Cody you probably have an entire shine dedicated to Bruce Willis.
You know it
Unbreakable is one of my favorite movies and one of the best of all time. Great review cody👍. Cant wait for your split revist.
Thank you
@@CodyLeachYT Your welcome
Unbreakable is an epic movie. The most impactful and emotional super hero themed movies. Samuel L Jacksons best performance in my opinion.
Now I’ve gotta sit my ass down and watch unbreakable and split, been saying that for a while now, but you’ve definitely convinced to actually go do it!
Yeah it always surprised me how low key this movie was back when it came out. I loved it.
Awesome review. Just finished watching Unbreakable for the first time and then came here afterwards.
This is my favorite of his as well.Looking forward to Glass remember critics diddnt like this film either.
The intro we never knew we needed
I love how subtle Unbreakable is and how powerful it is!! I love it
an interesting thing about Osteogenesis Imperfecta, is that along with the types where a bone protein is very low, and thus very easy to break, there is another type where it makes too much of a protein and makes the bones very dense, very hard to break, and thus very heavy in water. Could be that David Dunn has this alternate type of too much protein than Elijah's too little protein.
His super hero weakness is water. I wonder what they will do with that.
On its initial release, while a lot of people were negative about it, I was totally into everything about this. Still hold it as one of the top 5 comic films ever.
Same here
I absolutely love Unbreakable
Love both Unbreakable and Split there awesome movies, looking forward to watch Glass
Our film tastes align time and time again. I've always loved this film. There's nothing like it. What floors me on every viewing is the raw emotion that the score, performances, and direction elicits from me, effortlessly. It's beautiful. A masterpiece, in my opinion.
Glass was pretty meh when compared to Unbreakable and even Split, not as bad as critics are letting on but still, curious to see what you think of it when you see it
I need to rewatch Unbreakable, I love Split and hopefully on Saturday I will see Glass
Absolutely rewatch it
What do you think of his other film Armageddon
I've Always loved it and didn't know until now that it wasn't received well.
I just saw this for the first time today (I have no idea why) but I absolutely loved it. A masterpiece
Could you do top 10 horror movie remakes?
Good idea
Unbreakable Split Glass,i just noticed that
I really hope Shiamalan doesn't botch Glass. I'm very positive about his work now days but he loves his twists. I really hope he doesn't do some spin on the "they were crazy all along" cliche. I feel like it won't happen but it's gonna be a fear going into this movie for me
Our 1st 5%5
Bruce willis is the best part of this split and glass awsome trilligy
This is one of Shyamalan's best movies!
22:34 You considered Childs Play 2 a flawless movie yet you didnt gave it a perfect score.
Cool
The scores don't matter the review does
Unbreakable is awsome in fact i have all 3 movies on bluray and each time i watch all 3 they get better and better
this movie makes me feel like i am part of the intellectual elite and im laughing at the pleb
Well this was an interesting movie. It does have the signature MNS interesting premise and trademark twist. I do not think it fully explores the idea though or come up with the right narrative though.
Somehow the character of Samuel L Jackson does not feel genuine. So it remains a half baked idea or it does not work effectively. I think the character of Bruce Willis is really well done and he actually puts in a great performance in that role but the other half of the story is incomplete or just does not impress.
Its well done as far production values and acting is concerned. The background score is good, the acting is good but this story is unfinished. Also I notice MNS uses a grim tone for his movie. And frankly I cannot understand why. Yes Split was fine with a dark and grim tone but Unbreakable did not need this tone.
All in all I have to say that Unbreakable has an interesting idea but its not convincing enough. Your narrative has to convince people. And like Split the narrative of Unbreakable even though more focused and better acted just fails to convince. Just like the actions of James McAvoy and Anna Taylor seem disconnected here too the actions of Jackson seem hard to believe.
MNS probably needs to work on his screenplay. His screenplay needs to be tighter so that everything makes sense in the end or the focus of the audience is limited on the main theme. I really saw no reason to put in all that super hero reference in that movie and make it so philosophical. If that (meaning Jackson versus Willis) was your idea it was better to follow that idea. Same thing happened in Glass when he tried to put in too many themes around that concept of McAvoy and his kidnapping of three girls. You cannot or should not compromise the audience's experiences in the attempt to make a philosophical or social point. Glass tried to make a point about child abuse and Unbreakable tried to make a point about the presence of good and evil in daily life than in merely in comic books or super hero stories. But that came at the cost of the narrative.
An interesting idea has to transform into a entertaining and engaging movie because ultimately its manner in which the story is presented that matters. A fine idea without the right structure or the narrative to support it is wasted. Take Malignant. Its a uniquely wild idea. But the narrative effectively presents it so its feels entertaining and with the right amount of thrills and action. I would still give Unbreakable a 6.5. Its a good idea and acting here is several notches better.
I love this movie to death. I also loved the little sidestory of this super talented footballplayer coming to town but he was actually nothing compared to David Dunn.
I LOVE THIS MOVIE.
I think there are many things to like in this film. Very nice score, strong characters. However the pacing is terrible. There were numerous scenes where I was down right bored and found pointless. I think there should have been more to the final fight. Nothing over the top but just more. The twist wasn't really a twist for me....overall reaction was "oh ok, he's a terrorist?...lets move on". I think the film is alright and certainly not a bad film, but no where near the "masterpiece" that people are calling it.
Great Film indeed slow but worth the wait. Dude please review GLASS!! Your the only one that keeps it real lol
Oh I'm reviewing it for sure
A good movie go check it out if have not already
I love it ! But one thing Cody - as it's a superhero movie, suprisingly it isn't based on a comic book.So can't be in your Top 5 Comic Book Movies😂😂
Cool...
@@CodyLeachYT sorry didn't mean to sound like a smartass , just a little joke. Love your vids
@@alexanderstone4486 thank you
What a fucking film y’all!!! 🍻🍻🍻
Absolutely
Love the movie
Unbreakable is a masterpiece and one of the best superhero movies of all time!! I love this film
Unbreakable is in my Top 5
Omg I love your shirt ☠😾⚰
I love unbreakable but I think the car accident plotline was not handled well enough
Sorry, but every time I hear Unbreakable these days. I think of Kimmy Schmidt & that theme song. "Unbreakable, they're alive damn it! Females are strong as hell," But I did see the movie, it was one of those movies you have to watch over & over to appreciate it.
Best Shyamalan movie ever
My cousin read "unbreakable" and tried breaking everything
You should add a new category "BUY IT RIGHT NOW MOTHERF***ER" Always need a Samuel L Jackson category
I like the way you think
Hopefully Bruce Willis will stop making crappy movies now
Hope so
Bruce Willis does good but bad at the same time in my opinion. He doesn't act like a normal person. Its like Will Shattner with the pauses its so ridiculous. When he talks like an actual normal person I think its great. Dude always looks like he is constipated for some reason. I think like the "Don't shoot me" Part is a good example of him speaking normal but looking goofy as hell. Unlike the sixth sense or die hard for example. He actually acts like a normal person in those movies, with how he converses with people.
I like this film but I think It went from UnderRated to OverRated like "The Room".
With "The Room" it was a "its so bad its good" to "This movie is great"
"Unbreakable" went from "Movie sucks so slow barley any action" to "Its greatest comicbook movie"
Maybe I'm just mind blown by how cult classics are becoming so Mainstream they don't really have that "Cult Classic" label anymore. Kind of Like if people started praising the hell out of "Idle Hands" out of no where.
Good Review Keep up the Good Work!
I was one of the first who loved Unbreakable (even before I saw the film) before everyone jumped on the bandwagon.
I tried to watch this years ago, but it was sooooo fuckinggggggg sssllllooowwwwwwwwwwww. I had to stop it after 10 minutes. It was like The Blackcoat's Daughter slow, but I still got through that one.
Great review as usual Cody. I actually have one negative, and it's literally the last 5 seconds of the film. When the screen freezes at the end and the writing comes up telling us about the fate of Elijah Price, it would have been better if there had been just a fade out with no writing. Better still, the final image should have been a close up of Sam Jackson's face with a mad grin and tears running down his cheeks as he screams, " THEY CALLED ME MR GLASS!"
Unbreakable is best movie ever
Sam Jackson character is like the Joker
But still first!
unbreakable was a great movie 🙄
You're next bitch. Patience! Lol
Weaaaaak intro
5 seconds in and you're already bitching?
Cody Leach listen bro when you put out intros as good as the leprechaun returns one and then put out one like this people are gonna know it, don’t start with me..
