What Parents Need to Know
About Unbreakable
Parents need to know that this movie has a lot of violence. Although most of it is offscreen, its themes -- including sexual assault, murder of the parents of two children, and genocide -- may be especially disturbing. A child uses a gun. There's a brief vulgar reference and an implication of date rape.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about how we find our "place in the world," and the importance of recognizing our special gifts so that we can make the best use of them. If members of the family enjoy comic books, they may want to talk about the tradition of pictoral story-telling, the themes of hero and arch-villain and what makes them so enduring. We often think of good guys and bad guys as opposites, but we should also think about what they have in common.

Brilliant Thriller!
This is one of teh best thrillers to date and it holds one of the best endings/twists ever. It blew me away!
I rate this title on for age 14 and give itCSM Gave this movie 2 stars?!
This movie is just incredible. Not at all your average superhero movie. This a realistic take on what would happen if there really were people with special abilities, and it focuses on one man who has them. Great premise, and the ending was spectacular. I totally did not see the ending coming. Two thumbs way up. It does have some disturbing violent content, which is why I think it is appropriate for kids 14 and older. Mature 13 year olds should do fine, though. Mature viewers will get much more enjoyment out of this movie, because there is a LOT to think about.

"Ultimately disappointing"?
Yes, "Unbreakable" was not as good as "The Sixth Sense", but it was still an incredible film that deserves to be watched. Don't listen to CSM, the twist was good, but more subtle than in "The Sixth Sense", which in some ways, made it more impactful to the movie. The Content in the movie really wasn't a problem-- it was more of the themes and dark feel of the movie. OK, i didn't think "The Sixth Sense" or "The Ring" were strange or weird, so you can tell that "unbreakable" probably is when I say that I thought it was a little different, but not really that weird. (But still really good)

Disturbing hostage scene
This movie had great depth in showing the good/bad choices we make, how we use our talents and how things were 'meant to be'. However, I found the misuse of Christ's name offensive and was very disturbed by the scene which showed a family that was kept hostage and killed/abused by their captor. Also, I was never really quite sure about the purpose behind including a scene where the main character decides to slip off his wedding band near the beginning of the film. As a mentor for a confirmation class (13-14 year-olds) at our church, I was surprized this movie was recommended in Focus on the Family's "Movie nights". This movie should be reserved for older teens only.
