I was primarily responding to your statement ..."I neither consider it a superhero movie"...While I don't have a problem with folks considering it to be non-traditional, to claim that it isn't a superhero movie at all is a bit over the top IMO.(...on rereading your original post however you do mention not seeing it as a traditional superhero film in the first sentence, so we may just be having a slight failure to communicate... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> )Personally I think Unbreakable was a very well done piece of filmmaking, more so than some of the other movies on the list (including X2). Stylistically it is just a very different type of film than the others and I feel we're mostly just talking about a matter of taste here.Ultimately I just feel that when you cut to the heart of the matter the best superhero stories (as with stories of all genres) are about people and how they interact and for me Unbreakable was tops in that category.</blockquote>
