Opinions?

I'd like to see the airlines go back to peanuts rather than those
pretzel things that just can't be choked down
with the little half cup of liquid the give you!
 
Some parts were AWESOME, the scenes with the creepy monsters in the village.

Other parts were not, why was the blind girl doing all the work?


I guessed the ending within the first 20 mins. but kept saying " he isn't going to do that, it's too obvious "


Overall, he gets an OK at best.


Unbreakable was better, Sixth Sense was better.
 
It was okay. But then, I brought the rum, so I didn't have to pay for my ticket. :D

William Hunt is horrible, Adrian Brody is excellent, and the rest are generally good. The direction, of course, is superb, but the dialogue is really stilted and often hard to believe. And the premise, of course, requires major suspension of disbelief.

Get stoned first.
 
if the government used fear to control the population perhaps the only ones that could see would be blind.....

look deeper, the movie is genius

The movie had it's moments.
yes the movie does have flaws, but the storyline really doesn't...you have to look at it as a whole.. the idea that we could create a perfect society through fear control and lying to the people " to protect them" is so fucking relevant to what's happening in our world right now, and it's painfully obvious that it can't work, history has proven that.......



Unbreakable gets a bad rap, but THAT is a very underrated film indeed.

It was planned to be a trilogy but apparently that is not going to happen.
what a shame.

Well...i saw and i read the spoilers due to the fact that this film was being blasted to hell and back....the only thing i HATED about this movie so much was William Hurt...i wanted to punch his fucking lights out for his hideous acting...the plot was cool but there should have been more of an explaination on what happened after Ivy was exposed to the truth....however the funny part about is, she was but she wasnt due to the fact she was blind...the idea was cool....and i liked Adrian Brody's performance...i also liked Juaquin Pheonix's performance as well (forgive me, i cannot spell his name)....
but seriously, William Hurt made this movie suffer because of his bad horrible acting...bastard...it would have been better with someone else playing that part....
