Elijah Price: Are you ready for the truth?

Elijah Price: [from trailer] Are you ready for the truth?
|
Elijah Price: You know what the scariest thing is? To not know your place in this world.
|
David Dunn: You killed all those people.
Elijah Price: But I found you. So many sacrifices just to find you.
|
ER Doctor: And, to answer your question, there are two reasons why I'm looking at you like this. One because it seems in a few minutes you will officially be the only survivor of this train wreck, and two, because you didn't break one bone, you don't have a scratch on you.
|
David Dunn: [talking to Elijah on phone] I've never been sick, I've never been injured... what do I do now?
Elijah Price: Go to a place where people are... you won't have to wait very long.
|
Elijah Price: [from deleted scene] Can I tell you a secret? I'm going to be very, very sad if this doesn't work out the way I think.
|
David Dunn: I had a bad dream
Audrey Dunn: It's over now
|
Joseph Dunn: I thought maybe because you're my dad... I thought I might be like you... I'm not like you...
David Dunn: You are like me. We can both get hurt. I'm just an ordinary man.
Joseph Dunn: No, you're not... Why do you keep saying that?
|
Elijah Price: Do you see any Teletubbies in here? Do you see a slender plastic tag clipped to my shirt with my name printed on it? Do you see a little Asian child with a blank expression on his face sitting outside on a mechanical helicopter that shakes when you put quarters in it? No? Well, that's what you see at a toy store. And you must think you're in a toy store, because you're here shopping for an infant named Jeb.
|
Elijah Price: One of us has made a gross error, and wasted the other person's valuable time.
|
Elijah Price: It's allright to be afraid, David, because this part won't be like a comic book. Real life doesn't fit into little boxes that were drawn for it.
|
Elijah Price: Can I tell you a secret? I'm going to be very, very sad if this doesn't work out the way I think.
|
Joseph Dunn: Do you think you could beat up Bruce Lee?
David Dunn: No.
Joseph Dunn: I mean, if you knew karate?
David Dunn: Nope.
Joseph Dunn: What if he wasn't allowed to kick, and you were *really* mad at him?
David Dunn: No, Joseph.
|
David Dunn: I'm gonna ask you a question, and it's going to sound a little weird, so just think about it. Do you remember me ever being sick?
Audrey Dunn: I, I don't, I can't remember...
David Dunn: No cold, no fever, no headache, isn't that a little weird? What do you think it means?
|
Comic Book Clerk: You'd better not be back there jacking off to the Japanese comics, I swear to God...
|
Elijah Price: This is an art gallery, my friend, and this is a piece of art.
|
Elijah Price: It's hard for many people to believe that there are extraordinary things inside themselves, as well as others. I hope you can keep an open mind.
|
Elijah Price: I have something called Osteogenesis Imperfecta. It's a genetic disorder. I don't make a particular protein very well and it makes my bones very low in density... very easy to break.
|
David Dunn: You should never do anything like this. You know that, right?
Joseph Dunn: Yeah.
David Dunn: What should you do if something bad happens?
Joseph Dunn: Get Mom.
|
Elijah Price: Why did you became a security guard? You could have become so many other things: "... start a chain of restaurants..."
|
Elijah Price: You made that decision, and I find that very interesting. Now all I need is your credit card number.
|
Elijah's Mother: They say this one has a surprise ending.
|
Joseph Dunn: I'm just going to shoot you once!
|
Audrey Dunn: No shooting friends, Joseph!
|
Elijah Price: They called me Mr. Glass.
|
David Dunn: Friends listen to each other! And they don't shoot each other, do they Audrey?
Audrey Dunn: N-... No shooting friends, Joseph...
|
Elijah Price: Now that we know who you are... I know who I am - I'm not a mistake! It all makes sense, in the comics you know who the arch villain is going to be? He's the exact opposite of the hero! And most time's they're friends like you, and me. I should've known way back when you know why David? Because of the kids! They called me Mr. Glass.
|
Elijah Price: Now that we know who you are, I know who I am. I'm not a mistake.

When Unbreakable was released, Bruce Willis confirmed that the film was the first in a proposed trilogy. Viewed in that context, this is a tantalizing and audaciously low-key thriller, with a plot that twists in several intriguing and unexpected directions. Standing alone, however, this somber, deliberately paced film requires patient leaps of faith--not altogether surprising, since this is writer-director M. Night Shyamalan's daring follow-up to The Sixth Sense. While just as assured as that earlier, phenomenal hit, Unbreakable is the work of a filmmaker whose skill exceeds his maturity, its confident style serving a story that borders on juvenile. However, Shyamalan's basic premise--that comic books are the primary conduit of modern mythology--is handled with substantial relevance. Willis plays a Philadelphia security guard whose marriage is on the verge of failing when he becomes the sole, unscathed survivor of a devastating train wreck. When prompted by a mysterious, brittle-boned connoisseur of comic books (Samuel L. Jackson), he realizes that he's been free of illness and injury his entire life, lending credence to Jackson's theory that superheroes--and villains--exist in reality, and that Willis himself possesses extraordinary powers. Shyamalan presents these revelations with matter-of-fact gravity, and he draws performances (including those of Robin Wright Penn and Spencer Treat Clark, as Willis's wife and son) that are uniformly superb. The film's climactic revelation may strike some as ultimately silly and trivial, but if you're on Shyamalan's wavelength, the entire film will assume a greater degree of success and achievement. --Jeff Shannon
