Movie: Unbreakable
Basic Plot: The origin story of a superhuman through the eyes of M. Night Shamalamadingdong..
I'm Okay With: The fact that nothing seems to happen in this movie other than Bruce Willis and Princess Buttercup staring at each other in silence a lot. The fact that Bruce Willis doesn't become one of the most recognizable people in the world after being the only survivor of a train crash. The fact that Bruce Willis doesn't resent the hell out of his wife for taking away the one good thing he is really good at, that being football. The fact that Bruce Willis hasn't figured out that he is a superhuman earlier in his life. The fact that Bruce Willis is not only super strong and invincible, but also can read people's minds and yet Mr. Glass is just super fragile and a nerd. The fact that Mr. Glass couldn't come up with a better way of finding his opposite other than killing hundreds and hundreds of people.
I'm Not Okay With: The fact that Samuel L. Jackson's character, Elijah, breaks a bone every time he falls down but somehow orchestrates numerous terrorist plots, resulting in hundreds of deaths, in the hopes of finding a superhuman. In other words, how did the cops not figure out that he was their suspect earlier? He must have had help blowing up a building and causing a train crash because he is a fragile guy and would risk his health if he did it alone. There is a reason they call him Mr. Glass. But let's say he did do it alone. The problem with that is that he is a pretty noticeable guy. He even dresses like a villain I would think that a weird looking dude that just so happens to be seen at a couple of massive accidents would come up in a police report. But no, they cops are apparently idiots and a guy who can't even walk down a set of stairs without worrying about ending up in the hospital gets away with it. I am not okay with that.
