Unbreakable

I worked my way through another M. Night Shyamalan film: Unbreakable, which really engages the audience through its fantastic visuals, camera angles and effective sound used.
The visuals of this film is shown through a broken glass which links in with the themes of death and loss and also blood as the the glass breaks and the pieces are scattered everywhere. The names of the a actors and actresses are seen through the broken glad which sets the tones for the film. It also uses a striking ray of light through the title 'UNBREAKABLE' with a black background to symbolise danger.
In the trailer, the voice of the characters engaging in conversation which overpowers the shots been shown as it is giving background information adds the thrill and tension to the whole film.
One thing M. Night Shyamalan does well in his films in the thriller genre is that he engages or tries to engage his audience right at the beginning of the film by shooting at different angles, using appropriate lighting, visuals and sound to create a lasting effect on the audience.
