2. Unbreakable

There truly was nothing like sitting down in a theater in 2000 and watching this film. We knew Shyamalan loved a good twist ending, but Unbreakable —starring Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson—has a twist beginning too. He took all the goodwill from his previous film and used it to make a modern spin on the comic book genre almost a decade before Marvel and DC would start dominating the box office. It’s just a masterpiece of mood and message that still holds up today.
