Ambitious and weird, providing unusual commentary on comic book movies in the form of a sequel that's landing almost two decades after the first film was released. Glass is well-acted, sloppily constructed, but mostly captivating in its ability to ground its characters in a world that just might exist.

M. Night Shyamalan’s Glass ambitiously toys with audience expectations to deliver an unexpected, divisive and yet appropriate finale to his Eastrail 177 Trilogy. Read more

Whilst not as strong as either of the films preceding it, Glass pieces together both previous narratives with skill and satisfaction delivering a Shyamalan story with all his best traits in plain view. Read more

It’s entertaining without really trying to be for the most part.

Not quite as enthralling as Unbreakable, nor as surprising as Split, Glass is nevertheless a satisfying conclusion to this retrofit trilogy. Read more

Would Glass have worked better if we hadn’t been standing around staring all this time? Probably. but Shyamalan got us here with skill, and he gets us out with a film that’s easy to respect, but hard to cheer for. Read more

A bit like its namesake, an empty vessel that has no real value to its beholder without something of appealing substance to pour into it, and Shyamalan, despite an ample run time, doesn’t have enough juice to fill his more than halfway. Read more

A film that is too hand-holding, too overt in its genre deconstruction, too blunt in its story-telling. And this takes away from what could be enjoyable about the premise. Read more

Glass concludes Shyamalan's superhero movie trilogy in a manner that manages to be absorbing, frustrating, and bewildering at the same time. Read more

Throwing the hero and villain from Unbreakable, and the monster from Split together should have resulted in Ragnarok in Philly. Instead, it’s mostly a movie about Samuel L. Jackson acting sedated in a wheelchair, James McAvoy doing an audition reel, and Bruce Willis getting involuntary showers. Read more

There are the makings of a good film in here, and the blending of the three characters into a narrative is a cute idea. But it’s a film that left me feeling generally unsatisfied with its story arc... Read more

The overarching themes of Shyamalan’s franchise sound somewhat unfilmable, yet his players tackle the subjects with enough sincerity that they work part of the time... Read more

Shyamalan is ultimately unable to mix and match the best of both worlds from Unbreakable and Split. Read more

What little plot there is builds inevitably to yet another of Shyamalan's trademark twists, but this one is underwhelming and makes little sense, contradicting evidence the film has previously presented. Read more

The languishing pace of Glass keeps the Samuel L. Jackson burn down to mere smolders and the Bruce Willis fortitude stuck in placid ponds for too long until business picks up. Read more

Problems with this film: the ideas simply don’t breathe, the narrative is more viscous than fluid, the dialogue is stiff, the connections are simplistic and amateurish, and the performances have no room to shine. Read more

Sure, the characters and performances are fine for the most part. Literally everything else is garbage. Read more

Een echte hedendaagse sequel tot Unbreakable geworden die niet moet onderdoen voor het origineel. Een absolute aanrader.

Tot slot ontgoochelen James McAvoy, Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, Sarah Paulson, Anya Taylor-Joy & Spencer Treat Clark niet met hun acteerprestatie in Glass die zowel de nostalgie bovenhaalt als nieuwe dingen bijbrengt. Read more

De opbouw in de trilogie staat als een huis; het begint als een dramatische thriller, laat in het tweede deel al iets meer bovennatuurlijke elementen toe en Glass is ten slotte helemaal in de stijl van superheldenfilms met meer actie en sciencefiction. Read more

Glass is een fascinerende slotconclusie die de verhalen van Unbreakable en Split op typische Shyamalaanse wijze bij elkaar brengt. Read more

Een prima afsluiter die de cirkel rond maakt en de verhalen van Kevin uit Split en David en Elijah uit Unbreakable samensmelt tot een waardige trilogie. Read more

De uiteindelijke conclusie van de film is gewaagd en Shyamalan weet weer met de verwachtingen van de kijker te spelen. Glass is een prima eind voor de trilogie, maar weet minder indruk te maken dan zijn voorgangers. Read more

Het is ongelofelijk knap hoe de Brit van het ene in het andere personage stapt. Het zijn de hoogtepunten die Glass enigszins redden, want ondanks dat het een onderhoudende thriller is maakt de film veel minder indruk dan zijn voorgangers.

Voldoende om Glass te beoordelen met een voldoende, maar dat de teleurstelling overheerst moge duidelijk zijn. Ik had er immers toch veel meer van verwacht.

Helaas lukt het Shyamalan niet om deze ideeën natuurlijk in het verhaal te verweven. Het resultaat is een bij vlagen spannende film met een verward plot en een frustrerende climax. Read more
