Have a Daredevil Episode on Friday and DARK Season 3 on Saturday. Enjoy the day!
Please react to blade runner 2049! It is directed by Denis Villenueve. He also directed sicario, prisoners, arrival, enemy, incendies, and the upcoming dune film! One of the best sci-fi movies of all time, and imo better than the original!
Unbreakable is the first of the Trilogy next Split then Glass.
You now need to watch “Split” then “Glass”. Can’t wait.
You should watch, Split.
You should watch Neon Demon! Highly symbolic movie and mesmerizing cinematography.
Tarantino placed this movie in his top 10 of 2000's
Oh that’s dope!!
@@JamesVSCinema you will react glass ma bro ?
@@lukeizabelle2131 Top 20 in 1990 to 2010 list
When directors say they want to make a realistic superhero movie more grounded in reality I always lol bc it's already been done masterfully with this movie. Watch the rest of the trilogy. I waited 19 yrs for that conclusion.
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏🙏🙏 like logan
Yeah did you see the second movie in the theater? And the reveal at the end? I remember seeing that in the theater, and hearing the music begin to play and was like "....this sounds familiar...why do I recognize thi......no....NOOOo......no way!!" And then boom, the camera gets to the end of the diner table, and it's David. xD It was so good!
@@preciousotoakhia9789 It was an amazing reveal that David was coming back at the end of Split, but it breaks the heart when you see what becomes of all three in Glass. And even though they hint that this exists as a cinematic universe in spirit, we'll never see another film after this "Limited Edition" trilogy ends.
@@sebastianemond5313 I really wish David Dunn could come back or his life before split could be explored
“Now that we know who you are, I know who I am. I’m not a mistake. It all makes sense. In a comic, you know how you can tell who the arch-villain is going to be? He’s the exact opposite of the hero. And sometimes they’re friends like you and me. I should have known way back when. You know why, David? Because of the kids. They called me Mr. Glass.”
Some of the greatest dialogue ever written.
One of my all time favorite movies, it's absolutely fantastic! Brilliant cast and acting with excellent dialogue!
Gorgeous
"And most times they're _friends,_ like you, and me." That part is so _chilling,_ so sad; even after all these years! It's the embodoment of being "criminally insane" right there in his confession.
I know this video is old but I just had to say, that ending dialogue still gives me chills.
@@ah149a Same here👍👍
No exploding spaceships, no swinging lightning weapons, no asteroids destroying cities.
Weight lifting and climbing out of a pool.
Epic can be anything when its written well.
Unbreakable is one of my top tier favourite films!
And if it has a good soundtrack and cinematography to support it.
@@lukeizabelle2131 Why forget? This movie is in my top 5 with infi war. Just enjoy everything we get to enjoy, Wether it's a blockbuster or a smaller production.
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
All true. But the goal of the MCU was to bring the great Crossover event from the comics to the big screen. They did a wonderful job with that.
Someone pointed out the names are like the bible - David is strength, Elijah is a prophet, Joseph is a dreamer.
Oh, wow. Great insight to whoever pointed that out. Thank you for sharing this idea.
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
The glass cane shattering on the stairs was Sam Jackson’s idea
Definitely M Night at his best here! Great reaction man! Looking forward to 1917 and Shutter Island, 2 absolute masterpieces
Damn I’m really amped to watch them Brandon! Much love to you my brother
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏🙏 like logan
This is definitely one of M. Night's best films. I love this film. Good to see you well. Much love bro
Appreciate that my man. Busy day today actually, have a couple client works but wanted to get this vid out to you guys!
@@JamesVSCinema Well we all appreciate the hard work. Hope you have a good day
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
2002 was such a great year for movies. Since you mentioned the "frame within a frame" thing, another movie that utilizes that really well is "One Hour Photo" with Robin Williams, which also just happens to be a 2002 film.
Unbreakable was released in 2000
Fantastic film, a great era in general
Its 2000 not 2002
14:42 I have a theory that that’s younger Kevin from Split, and all the screams we hear are his different personalities, or “beast”.
This is the first movie in a trilogy. Now you have to watch the rest ;)
1) Unbreakable
2) Split (2016)
3) Glass (2019)
And if you want a recommendation for another low-key superhero-ish movie; Freaks (2018)
Hahaha I’ve fallen into another rabbit hole lmaooo
@@JamesVSCinema its a trilogy in theme like the john carpenter apocalypse trilogy they aren't connected. Spoilers. l l. l. yes i know they are connected i just want to hide that
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
I've always thought Unbreakable was M. Night's "unsung hero". Love this film.
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏❤️ like Logan
So interesting to see this now and hear Mr. Glass say: “Now that WE found you, I know who I am”. So a trilogy was always planned.
@@Corn_Pone_Flicks actually, when he sat down to write Unbreakable, he had a longer story in mind but just thought it was more interesting to strip it back to just the first act. I seem to remember him talking about a sequel as far back as 2001.
Shhhhhut uuuuuup ugh 🤦♂️ lol
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
This movie is definitely underrated. Another underrated movie (and my #1 movie for more than a decade) is "Lucky Number Slevin". I would love to see your reaction on that since the story telling, the acting, the soundtrack the dialogue and (in a way) the cinematography is just great!
Glad to have chose this! The soundtrack is incredible
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
One thing that I really like in this movie is how they brought the super hero's cape icon to the more realistic tone. Like, the hero, following the archetype, still wears a cape, but, reallysticaly, it's a raincoat (in portuguese we call it "rain cape", and I believe othe languages also use the word cape in the term).
8:12 Take note of the HERO wearing GREEN, fighting a BEAST wearing YELLOW, surrounded by a PURPLE background heald by the MASTERMIND... Genius.
Cool thing about this film, itwasnt marketed as a Superhero movie.
The frame between a frame was to resemble frames of a cómic book.
SO many details in this film, its GREAT
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏🙏 like logan
I really think M Night has a lot of undeserved hate. He’s legit one of the best of the generation and incredibly passionate about his work, more so than most in the industry today. Last Airbender is probably his only legitimately BAD films. Even his weaker stuff has some really redeemable aspects
Airbender was probably one of those studio deals. You know, if you make this film for us, we'll let you make one you want.
he never played safe he went risky which is why most of the time it's either really good or really baf
@@ghadrackpotato960 studios being basically bankers, they like when things fit into neat categories or when you say it'll be like some other hit or when you make the property fit some demographic they like. They often screw up the marketing for similar reasons, like marketing Tremors as a pure horror movie or forcing a director to make Dune like High School Musical (that would be a horrible idea).
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
Every time the camera becomes static, it's meant to mimic compositions in comic book strips.
Oh word I didn’t catch that!
I remember watching this for the first time and being simply enthralled by the mood of it and the idea of a superhero.
Like,could I do this??
What’s my place in the world?
I love slow burn movies and this was just so aesthetically pleasing to me.
The camera angles,the symbolism. In my top 30 of all time I think.
This might just be my favourite film, the simple story that is just told so well through the camera work, use of colour, the acting and the score. A True Masterpiece
It’s really damn good!! Happy I revisited!
It's definitely up there in my top 5 all time favorite movies! It's honestly just such an excellent movie, it never ceases to grab my attention every time I watch it. 100% a masterpiece!
Agreed!! Not the same but I'd recommend Meet Joe Black for being another simple yet effective slow-cooker.
I recall at the time reading that as Bruce's character became more aware of who he is, his security poncho was made larger to subtly represent his growth as a super hero. It was good to watch the whole film again, 25 years later, without the "baggage" of The Sixth Sense weighing so heavily on it. That really impacted watching this one a lot back then. Now, I can see it really stands on its own very well. Thanks.
You guessed the twist mid-movie! :D The first time I saw it I had no idea he was going to be the "destined" villain.. it really broke my heart. But again, that's the whole point, cause a twist like that is EXACTLY what you find in comic books. This is by far, my favorite M Night Shyamalan movie. A lot of people's favorite is The Sixth Sense, which I also think is great but this one is just perfect, imo. The framing, the transitions, the soundtrack, THE FUCKING COLOR SYMBOLISM (David, the hero, wears greens and yellows, Elijah wears purples and blues as the villain, and other villanous people are identified by David wearing reds and oranges) is something I really love about this movie.. everything is just perfect. Also, a little trivia: the scene with the boy where he almost shoots his father was inspired by a real ocurrence in which a boy almost shot the actor of Superman for tv, George Reeves and he had to talk him down from it saying that even though he wouldn't be hurt, " bullets would bounce off of him and injure innocent bystanders." It's crazy to think something like that could actually happen, but there it is!
I've seen a lot of people recommending Panic Room which is a really good David Fyncher movie. I would also like to add for your consideration Minority Report which is another hidden gem!
Thanks again for another great reaction! n_n
M Night is pretty great, even thought he's had some stinkers, there are a couple of amazing films he's made. I think his first four films are probably his best, Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs, and The Village. I know those last two (Signs & Village) aren't well liked, but man, there's some great film-making in those. You should watch them, either as a reaction or on your own. And to really appreciate his films take a look at the behind the scenes/making-of docs of each of those movies.
Hey Atomic! Will definitely give the others a look. I’ve seen a few of them but that was a while ago!
Signs is fantastic.
I think Lady in the Water is extremely underrated. It gets a bad reputation because, in my opinion, it wasn't like his other films: there's no twist. It's a straightforward modern-day fairytale, and a beautiful one at that.
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
As a young man myself figuring out what I want to do in my life. Mr.Glass' quote, "Do you know what the scariest thing is? To not know your place in this world, to not know why you're here." Really resonated with me and made me tear up a bit.
Love this movie. This and Signs are great movies.
Loved Signs!!
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
Another great movie to check out (if you didn't already) is "Memento"! Keep up the good work!
I love this trilogy! I just finally watched Unbreakable, Split, and Glass in a marathon and it was so freaking satisfying!
I love that you appreciate the art of framing a shot and cinematography. So many of my friends couldn't care less about that side of film making and it makes it really hard to talk about movies with them because they only pay attention to the plot and nothing else. So much of the film making process is about what is inferred subconsciously with the composition and if you pay attention to it you get so much more out of the experience.
That’s love my man! Yeah I really do admire aspects of film like that. It’s a beautiful way to tell a story!
I remember writing a paper on this movie back in HS. I wasn't in HS when it came out but by the time I was a junior or senior all the Spiderman and X-Men movies and everything started flooding the box office so we had an assignment to write about our favorite superhero movie. I wrote about this. When Shyamalan is on his game it's incredible. You mentioned how he worked around foreground objects later in the video but I think my favorite shot in the whole movie is at the hospital with the last survivor other than Willis starting to bleed out, through a gauze wrap, in the foreground of Willis' character having a conversation with a doctor. Has always stuck with me.
I think my favorite thing about this movie is the way it uses traditional comic book language to foreshadow who the central characters are revealed to be: David Dunn has an alliterative name, like Peter Parker, Reed Richards, Bruce Banner, Clark Kent, and many other secret identities, and he's usually dressed in primary colors, emphasizing the broadness of his shoulders and the symmetry of his features. Elijah Price, meanwhile, has a dramatic name straight out of a Victorian novel, and wears a long black coat throughout the film, beginning with a cane and transitioning to a wheelchair, all while wearing black gloves, speaking softly, and sporting an asymmetrical haircut, all classic villainous signifiers.
Unbreakable is my favorite Shyamalan film. I honestly think Glass is hugely underrated. I felt very mixed on it my first viewing, but grew to love it.
Damn, I didn't remember how well shot this movie is. I love this film themes, like, "what if Superman exists, but he didn't know he was Superman?".
If you're in the mood for more comic book stuff I think you would really love HBO's Watchmen, if you haven't seen it already obviously.
I love Tarantino’s explanation of this film - what if Superman was here on Earth but didn’t realise who he was. It is a brilliant retelling of the Superman mythology.
17:40 It hit me while I was watching the movie... when Elijah leaves the message on the machine, his voice gradually goes from a tinny recording sound to a more natural sound, as if he’s right there in the room. Very creepy and effective.
Wow you are actually right!
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
I only discovered you a couple weeks ago, but this just popped up and I KNEW you'd love it. You always have a strong appreciation for how camera angles, framing, and movement informs story. This flick has that in SPADES!
One thing I remember seeing about this years ago was how in David's hero moment, as he progresses through the scene, they used several ponchos, each one an inch longer, so that by the end it resembled more of a superhero cape. I love this film
This is genuinely one of the best reactions I have seen. You have a new fan and subscriber.
Happy to hear that Jeff! Welcome to the community
The score gives me chills every single time I rewatch this.
I love this film! It was only last year when I watched this as if it was for the first time; I believe I watched it as a kid but I forgot everything. I got chills from the film's ending!
Definitely happy I was able to revisit!
Talking about 4K subs, as I watch this you’re at 42k!!! Congrats
As always, I loved your reaction to the movie! I love hearing your thoughts not only as a viewer, but your insight as a filmmaker adds alot to the experience. This one is a bit personal since one of my friends suffers from the same condition as Samuel L. Jackson's character, although in his case the illness isn't as severe.
Keep up the good work!
Wow that’s incredible and I’m happy to hear that Andrew. Much love to your friend as well brotha 🙏🏽
Unbreakable = Meaninglessness (David) vs Purpose (Elijah)
Split = Pain (Casey, Kevin) vs Power (The Horde)
Glass = Rationality (Dr. Staple) vs Faith (Elijah)
Saw this comment on a video essay of the Unbreakable trilogy.
I love this movie, but re-watching it with you really shone some light on things! So many shots had that comic book feel. Plus you're right, the music in that scene had an almost Hitchcock-y feel. Great reaction.
That’s so awesome to hear!! Glad you saw some things through this video!
Every time I see this movie, there’s something new I notice. Like the way that Elijah sees the camo man fleeing upside down after his fall, the same way Joseph was looking at the TV screen upside down when he learned of the train derailment. Almost identical framing.
Shyamalan has a great eye for shot composition.
James Newton Howard. One of THE Best of all time.
Also check out Signs. One of M. Nights best.
Wow. You went from 4 thousand subscribers to 33 thousand in only four months. That is awesome. You absolutely deserve it, dude. Happy New Year and here's hoping 2021 treats you well.
wow what a dream!!! look at you being so thankful for 4k and now you on 58k!!!!! GOALS!!!! keep up the amazing content
Thank you for this reaction. It's one of my top five films. This is the best reaction/review of it since Tarantino gave his appreciation of it. There's also the sadness in the beginning of the film being shown in blue and grey hues, and there is more color at the end as they both find their purpose, even when it meant letting in brighter things like the killer, (called the Orange Man in the music score).I love too how before going to the subway to test his powers, Isaiah tells him this part won't be like the comics. Love the tying in of comics as the extensions of Greek myths to sort of explain these unique individuals in earlier times. Plus yes, the music is sooo good. Your notice of the comic panel angles of shots I had never noticed or thought of. It was nice to revisit this with someone who also appreciated it. Thanks again!
Anytime!! Thank you for these kind words!!
A subtle beginning to the SuperHero genre.
This movie rocked surprisingly haha
no batman 89 no Blade no batman returns no superman no batman 66 unbreakable is one of my favorite movies but it isn't one of the first successful super hero movies
@@nathanielmorgan9108 I don't know where you got that from...
All the OP said was that it was a subtle beginning.
@@nathanielmorgan9108 If you want to go back far enough, the Batman serials in the 1940s were probably the first live-action superhero movies.
@@samieltheinfamous yep i forgot those
Your analysis of all these movies are excellent very enjoyable! Much success too you in your film making
You got to watch Split next, if u haven't seen it. It pretty much follows this movie as a sequel. Although different characters. Same universe.
Really good choice. This is such an underrated film. It's so good on many levels. Definitely my favorite out of all of Night’s films. It's shot so beautifully and the performances are great, especially from Samuel L. Jackson and Brice Willis. Have you seen the sequels, Split & Glass? If you haven't, you should.
Happy to hear that Steven! Wanted to pick something different for Thursday!
David Dunn is forever my favorite superhero bring him back pls 🙏
Veryyyyy happy to see you watch this. So glad I'm on the patron to see the full reaction
Awesome to hear that Keifer!! Much love to you my friend, your support really helps!
This is my second favourite film of all time. Such a great take on superheroes and the emotional payoff at the end is top class
Love this movie. Not sure if you caught it, but what was David's fear? Water. What was his superhero outfit? Yep, a waterproof cloak. I loved that. Its those little things that just won me over with the movie and of course the writer/director. This movie really taught me how to enjoy the little things. Which in this movie the little things were the biggest things.
Loved your reaction as well. Always enjoy watching filmmakers watch the underappreciated films. It's like watching them tell their version of a story, which isn't that what filmmaking is all about?
Just found your channel. Instant subscribe!
Awesome to have you in the community man! This is a great comment!
React to Ghost Dog staring Forest Whitaker. It’s a well done, unique film👍🏻
Will add this one! 👌🏽
this is one of my all-time, top ten favorite movies ever. so gorgeous.
SLJ killed it with his last line.
"I always knew I always a villain.....the kids called me....Mr. Glass."
The way he delivers it always gives me chills, yet breaks my heart.
One thing you may not have noticed on first viewing, and is worth going back for, is the colors and lighting. There's a very deliberate split between the color schemes for the hero and villain and their shots. It gives the strong feeling of a comic book where a limited pallet might be used to save on printing. Very cool to see when green and when purple are dominant.
I envy you that you got to see this for the first time as an adult. If I could unsee Unbreakable and also The Sixth Sense just to watch them for the first time, I totally would. Also throw in Shawshank Redemption because why not.
One of my favorite Shymalan movies with two of my favorite actors. That football field you said you recognized reminded me of the old Franklin Field. Shymalan showing up in his movies was an old Hitchcock thing. Thanks for the reaction.😄👍😄
Gotta watch “Only God Forgives”
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Unbreakable is the first half hour of a superhero movie, the origin story, stretched out to a full movie. That's not a revelation or anything, it's obvious, I just have to say it because it does it so well.
And you like Elijah and sympathize with him, his mom's so proud of him... it makes the end hit that much harder.
Also, I must say, he's really rocking his supervillain outfit in that last scene.
I just watched split after seeing your reaction realize that it's connected to unbreakable and then saw that and then looked for a reaction to that and found you.
The universe's balance
The sound track in this movie is just amazing.
Love it. Your videos remind me of watching movies with friends from film school.
Dedication and persistence, when you take 20 years to finish a trilogy.
I've been watching for a bit, but I honestly thought you had more subscribers lmao
Keep the work up my guy, I really enjoy your content!
Your reactions really start to grow on me. Well deserved sub at last.
There is a video online with Tarantino saying "it is a brilliant retelling of the superman mythology summing it up: what if superman was here on Earth and he did not know he is superman" always loved that quote.
That’s a pretty damn cool nod from Tarantino!
James VS Cinema yes it is, he also says they failed at marketing the movie and they should have used the headline of “what if superman was here on earth and he did not know he was superman” he calls him Shamalamadingdong. Brilliant! I think this in one of his older Tarantino’s top 10 movies interviews
One of my favourite films.
Period.
The camera work in this movie is top tier.
AND THAT SOUNDTRACK!!! JAMES NEWTON HOWARD IS A GENIUS {UNBREAKABLE,SIGNS,LADY IN THE WATER,A HIDDEN LIFE,,AND MANY MORE}
You saw Split and Glass ? Because its a trilogy. And this is the best superhero saga of the cinema for me x). Seriously, look this two masterpieces ! And James McAvoy in Split is one of the best performance I have seen.
I actually haven’t! 👀
@@JamesVSCinema I hope you will x)
James, now you have to watch the trilogy with Split & Glass!
Will do brotha!
@@JamesVSCinema nooooooo, glass never existed
@@danielcastillo9587 Oh hush child grow up. He can watch glass if he wants to it's his choice.
Thanks for this excellent review!
I have just subscribed, after stumbling upon your review of Split, and I’ll watch that now. Have you reviewed Glass? I’ll look for that review, but I had to write immediately because I’m very excited to find your channel.
You are succinct, articulate and the fact that you have a filmmaking background adds to the review. It’s great to have yet another aspect, pun intended, of how we may see these films. (My daughter is an assistant camera operator for films, music videos, tv, etc., in Vancouver, so I can sort of understand your particular appreciation of the methodology).
As far as the sons character not being illustrated to the extent I would like, I’m guessing that if there was more, it may have been edited due to time constraints, and being a parent myself, I can tell you that if you ever have kids, they’re probably going to do a lot of crazy stuff that you would never been able anticipate.
Also, it was fun seeing you enjoy the location shots like that.
As far as I know, every score from James Newton Howard is truly exceptional.
One of my favorite "realistic" super hero movies
and I always enjoyed The Village even after the big plot reveal was well known.
They technically did come out with more of these movies again a few years ago (Split & Glass).
I haven't seen Glass yet.
That drowning scene with the pool cover sinking into the pool and the, I imagine a stunt double, lol, wearing the poncho, gives me such claustrophobia to this day.
As an MMA fan, Bruces choke hold on the murderer was really friggin weak lmao, but still such a cool angle in the ceiling corner of the room. Was it one take starting from the floor and ending on the ceiling?
Fun side note, the son is in Gladiator and later on in life he played the son in The Last House on the Left (of the bad guys).
And now five months later you're sitting at 40k. Congrats bro you deserve it (:
This and the sixth sense was so good. I wish I could rewatch these films for the first time again!
Hahaha I got lucky on that regard!
Love your videos! It's great watching you to react to films i've already seen but i'm looking forward to getting some recommendations of my own.
Wonderful movie, easily my favorite of M.Night's work. 2 moments that get me the most are the kids helping him out of the pool and the paper being slid over to his son.
Hey, thanks for this man. Always look forward to younger reactors with insight checking out older films.
That’s awesome to hear my brotha!
So ahead of its time this movie truly is.
Unbreakable is one of my favorites of all, definetly top 10 film
M. Night Shyamalan asked James Newton Howard to treat the story a bit like an opera. That's why the music is so memorable.
The breakfast scene at the end gets me every time.
In the mid 80's in Los Angeles I was listening to an interview with Brandon Lee on a rock station. He said, he and Chuck Norris' son, I forget which one, where sitting at the end of the Santa Monica pier, when they were like 10-11 years old. They were arguing, "My dad can beat up your dad!" "N'uh uh, my dad would beat up your dad." It was pretty funny, the way he described it.
Aye shoutout from Philly! Great reaction as always man, keep it up! A good suggestion to check out is You were never really here. An overlooked movie in my opinion, a taut thriller with Joaquin Phoenix
Without a doubt M. Night's masterpiece, probably in my top 4 "superhero" movies.
1- The Dark Knight
2- Spider-Man 2
3- Logan
4- Unbreakable
Spiderman 2? Nah...you mean watchmen or sin city
I’ve seen those actually!!
@@JamesVSCinema ok watch harsh times then
I love the bench pressing scene so much.
Realising that the main characters NEVER touch, until the end with that reveal! Damn!
This movie is a master class in filmmaking. This is one of shabaman's best twisted endings.
What is it called where the (usually) kid knows something they think nobody will believe, and finally someone does believe them? There must be a name for it. That is what I liked best about this movie and the 6th Sense. I think this is where his movies took a wrong turn, "Do twists! Your twists are great! People love them!", but the real secret sauce was the catharsis that come from these kid-secret-believed-by-trusted-adult things he set up. You do that and THEN hit them with the twist when their guard is down so the movie feels satisfying even if the twist was cut out.
Heavily agree with this statement!
Hey There James, i really enjoyed that reaction of yours! Unbreakable is in my eyes M night shyamalan's masterpiece. Its very very low key but i really like the idea of a Superman Living besides us not knowing that he has powers at all. As always, greetings from Germany.
Greetings my man!! Thank you for always showing love Stephan. Seriously you rock
Im gonna check out your Split and Glass reactions next for sure
What makes this a great superhero film, is that it remains realistic and doesn't depend on exaggeration. Even Elijah's condition, osteogenesis imperfecta, is a real condition.
18:24 And that is why you have a lock on your screen door as well as your main door. And you always lock the lock on your screen door.
