- Zokkiie18. januar 2026It is quite messy the whole way through, with clunky pacing and ideas that don’t always land. It struggles to balance being grounded and being a superhero finale. Still, there are some good parts—McAvoy is excellent, Jackson has strong moments, and a few scenes really work. Uneven, but not terrible
- ርልዪረ12. februar 2025First came UNBREAKABLE, introducing us to the superhero character David Dunn played by Bruce Willis. DD seems an unlikely superhero because he looks just like an ordinary man, but as the title points out, DD is indeed unbreakable. As a human, he has his flaws but is generally a good father to his young son. This film is a gem, one to be enjoyed again and again. I was so excited that the writer and director, M. Night Shyamalan, then brought us SPLIT, some sixteen years later. The (somewhat troubled!) protagonist, Kevin Wendell Crumb, superbly acted by James McAvoy, introduces us to *several* characters 'all for the price of one'! For KWC has split personalities due to the horrific child abuse he endured (don't worry, this is only lightly touched on). There are many personalities, a few darker than others, and then there's The Beast. I love this film, rate it very highly due to the story, the action, and James McAvoy's brilliant acting and ability to switch between the different personalities. Great acting all round, has to be said. And, as in all good films, there are brief moments of humour (thank you Hedwig and Miss Patricia). In summary: Tense, exciting, edge-of-the-seat fun. GLASS ............ A couple of years later - thankfully we didn't have to wait too long this time! - comes along GLASS. The main character this time is of course, Mr Glass, played by Samuel L Jackson. We were first introduced to Glass in the first film, Unbreakable. He is the supervillain to David Dunn's superhero, his speciality being his quick and brilliant mind. Since birth he has struggled with the life-changing defect of having highly fragile bones - bones that shatter like glass. He is the very opposite of David Dunn's character, he IS *breakable*. Thus, feeling frustrated and ostracised because physical activity is denied him, the young Elijah Price (or Glass) turns to a quieter pastime for his sharp mind. And as an avid comic collector, he soon believes in the reality of superbeings or superhumans living amongst us. In GLASS we see the coming together of all three superhumans. The official film trailers show us their capture and imprisonment in a psychiatric setting. We wonder if and how they'll escape. What new escapades are in store? The movie begins well - even at the point of the creative credits - and soon, two of the main characters literally run into one another. All good and exciting. We see the dilemma of other characters and embrace ourselves for some of the action. And then, some few minutes into the film, the story abruptly changes direction and the pace goes from exciting to crawl. This middle part of the story is too slow paced, some of the scenes unnecessary or overly long, some dialogue puffed out when we've already got the idea of what the head psychiatrist believes / the reason given why they're there against their will. The viewer does get the feeling that something is 'off' - why are two of the main characters, seemingly innocent, treated in this heavy-handed manner? To what end? What about their human rights? Half way through the film, the pace begins to pick up momentum. Now it's getting interesting again. Later, we're promised some heavy duty action. But the film turns into another direction and my fiance and I were left disappointed. There is a shock and then the final twist.
- James Saenz18. mars 2025pretty disappointing finale to unbreakable and split, but i love these actors and the performances and cinematography carry what’s mostly a trite narrative. not a bad film but i probably wouldn’t watch it again, whereas i definitely would watch the first two several times over. full letterboxd review in bio.
- Gianni Cavuoto25. oktober 2025A good culmination of the trilogy. Unfortunately its probably the weakest out of all of them. I truly wonder if M. Night Shyamalan will write any ore stories in the universe.....? I hope so, its a refreshing take on the superhero movies of today.

- Danny Potter-Jones24. august 2025The third film out of a trilogy series closes it out okay but probably could have been a lot better. Imagine having three unique gifted people in a therapy session for most of the film😂. The order: Unbreakable (2000) Split (2016) Glass (2019)
- Hakihiko27. februar 2025An Ambitious Conclusion "Glass" is an intriguing but divisive conclusion to M. Night Shyamalan's unconventional superhero trilogy. Mixing psychological tension with comic book mythology, the film delivers a bold narrative that challenges genre expectations. However, while its ambition is commendable, its execution doesn't always land. James McAvoy once again steals the show with his mesmerizing portrayal of Kevin Wendell Crumb and his multiple personalities, seamlessly shifting between them with impressive precision. Samuel L. Jackson as Elijah Price exudes intelligence and menace, while Bruce Willis as David Dunn brings a quiet, stoic presence that fits the character's journey. Sarah Paulson also adds an interesting layer to the story as Dr. Staple, though her role may feel underdeveloped for some. Visually, "Glass" carries Shyamalan's signature slow-burn tension and atmospheric framing, giving it a distinct, grounded feel. The film explores fascinating themes of belief, perception, and destiny, but its pacing can feel uneven, with certain plot points either overstated or underwhelming. The third act, in particular, is where the film takes risks that will either impress or frustrate viewers, depending on expectations. While "Glass" doesn't fully capitalize on the potential set up by "Unbreakable" and "Split", it remains a thought-provoking and unique take on the superhero genre. It may not be the explosive finale some hoped for, but its ambition, strong performances, and unconventional storytelling make it an engaging watch.
- Varun19. oktober 2024One of the most disappointing finales to a trilogy that no one asked for. If you’re gonna make a single location movie, you need to make it interesting and tense. But majority of the hospital section is very dull and boring with the characters just sitting around in their cells, and the doctor spends so much time trying to convince the protagonists of their delusions when both they and the audience clearly know she’s bullshitting. The side characters also don’t do much in this film besides Casey, who is given an important role but her reasons for helping her kidnapper and serial killer are unexplored. Bruce Willis’ acting gives the impression that he doesn’t even want to be in this movie. James McAvoy is amazing in this role, just like he was in Split (2016). Samuel Jackson is absolutely menacing as Mr. Glass and I really enjoyed seeing him putting plans into motion, however you have to wait through almost an hour of seeing him doing nothing until you get to this section. And his plans pay off to zero satisfaction with that terrible ending. The plot twist is a secret organisation that we’ve never heard about or seen any build up to, turning the tables and killing all the protagonists? Shyamalan is a complete hack and treats his audience as a joke. His latest movies (excluding Split) and the tv show Servant have been so wack because they all start with a good premise but have the worst and shallowest of endings. He’s a director who loves giving you blue balls as he always sprinkles good teases, like in this movie he hints to a big fight that’ll take place at Osaka Towers, but none of it ever comes to fruition. The tons of theories that fans come up with for his projects are usually a million times better than any script he is capable of fashioning. Don’t waste your time with this film.
