Fridge Brilliance

  • One common, albeit minor, discrepancy in Unbroken First-Person Perspective visual media is that the viewpoint-character never seems to blink. But in Henry's case, his eyes may not need to blink, as they're just as robotic as his left hand and foot are. This is supported by the fact that you never see him blink in the long camera shot near the end where you finally see his face.
    • Or, the blinking is done by the viewer.
  • Having Estelle's lab attacked just before Henry's voice module can be installed isn't just a meta excuse to play the Heroic Mime trope straight. Akan deliberately timed it that way to ensure that all the cyborg super-soldiers that follow Henry will be mute automatons, the best type of disposable super-soldier for illegal activities.
