Even if you’re not a superhuman, you can still fight... David’s chained up as an extra protection in case he decides to make a break for it or hurt someone. They had the lights for Kevin, Glass is in a wheelchair. The only way to keep David restrained would be to chain him up. In the end the Dr reveals that he really was superhuman all along so it actually does make sense to chain him up. Also it just looks cool and make the character appear more badass. What you’re complaining about actually makes sense if you pay attention to the movie.

@Haider I'm sorry, but no even a really, really strong "normal" guy is special for being really, really strong. That basically sums up Captain America and The Punisher.

Unbreakable was shot on 35mm film with anamorphic lenses, while Glass was shot digitally so I’m not surprised that it looks much worse. Honestly, M. Night should’ve just shot Glass on film to help maintain visual continuity.

[@faust3530]

Digital can look great nowadays. Not an excuse at all for a badly shot movie. This isn't 2005 anymore, cameras have improved riculously. Doesn't mean it's not easier to fuck up with digital, which is probably the problem.

[@rykarmccoy7780]

True, what I was more or less trying to say was that film is definitely the more difficult medium, which I feel requires more effort on the part of the filmmakers to make it work, whereas digital is much easier to work with, but can sometimes lead to filmmakers getting lazy and a bland visual style.

This is kind of insane that people actually think Split could have been written in 2000.

I don't think a 1/10 is deserving of a film like this. Yeah I have mixed thoughts on the film, most of them leaning on the bad side of this movie and believe me, with how the last third ended up, it's very disappointing how this ended. But if you're telling me this film in terms of execution and performance should be in the same pile as Slender or Wrinkle in Time, I'm sorry, but no. Those were films that failed at any given connection with the audience and had no purpose for existing given what they had to offer. This film, by it's own merit had potential and it certainly offered some interesting ideas and as you mention had some pros involved like James McAvoy and even somewhat with the music. Now the problems are still there and I'm not trying to downplay those problems, so I could see this film at best a 5 or at worst a 3, but a 1? There are worse films M. Night made before this one that are more deserving of that like Last Airbender and After Earth to name a few. Bad movie, yeah. One of the worst out there? Nope. The ending was a cheap shot to the groin, but I don't regret seeing this movie. Unlike After Earth.

James McAvoy was worth the price of admission on his own.

[@Kyle-ic4nf]

But Adam, have you considered "First name Mister, last name Glass"?

[@YungM.D.]

The only reason I think the lights work is because it’s not the actual physical light that affects him it’s a psychological trigger for him: the personalities get to “have the light” when they take over Kevin’s body and therefore the mere knowledge of the light flashing triggers his personalities to switch. Now this is still silly and isn’t based on real science, but Kevin’s whole “DID can make you super strong” Power was a fantastical element anyways so I didn’t mind it. (I didn’t hate this movie nearly as much as Adam did if you couldn’t tell. But most of his critiques I found valid. I liked the film but it was still mixed and disappointing.) Edit: also Sam Jackson was in there not just because of his beliefs, but also because of his violent nature and his intelligence being so high that they knew if he were let out he could convince people or orchestrate an event as he did in the film that could cause mass casualties. Anya Taylor Joy is just a traumatized victim who has Stockholm Syndrome and therefore portrays no threat if she goes around babbling about superheroes. Also: the staff were not all involved. It was just a select few people involved. The institution was actually just a mental hospital with a specific wing for them. Sam Jackson had been there for 20 years. Hence why Paulson has all the witnesses and staff evacuate to the other side of the hospital so they couldn’t witness it. However, it was a dumb twist, and very unceremonious. Almost like Shyamalan Just was saying “fuck you” to fans of the typical superhero film and just subverting it just to because he could. “Then Superman gets hurt and dies like a bitch, just like in real life.”

[@n0m4nic]

Honestly, the twist wasn't a bad idea. The secret organization trope has always been in comics and putting it in a "grounded" superhero story was a fun idea to cloud what was real. It was just not handled well in this case. The fact that it pops out of nowhere destroyed the flow of the story and left it limping to the finish line at the end. If there were some allusions to it earlier, like if Dr Staples was making reports on her progress to someone over the phone and seemed like she was struggling to convince them to let her continue, the transition would have been much smoother.

[@northropi2027]

"Hey M. Night let's take our two cool movies, make them related with the underlying theme of superpowers, and forcibly combine them into a MCU-esque shared universe in spite of the relative lack of a foundation due to having only two prior films and the fact that the characters involved have powers that are by design low-profile, obscure, and hard to observe that create more unease and mystery than spectacle and in any setting other than the contexts of their original films generate a lot of frustrating questions without answers or consistency that make said powers, as aspects of the story and worldbuilding, simply seem poorly thought-out as we try to increase the stakes and scale of the action and world, and also we just happen to fuck it up pretty bad."

1/10 is way too harsh. Slenderman was 1/10 material, it lacked every fundamental thing that a movie needs, including a plot. Glass wasn't a fantastic movie by any stretch of the imagination, I wouldn't even call it particularly good, but to peg it with the lowest of the low based on some of the criticisms you gave it says you either weren't paying very close attention, or that you're deliberately making the movie sound worse than it actually is. They explain in the movie that the lights are activated in Kevin's cell when he gets close to them. They don't "sense" when he's displaying a bad personality, they just flash him and trigger a new one to come out. The ending was indeed pretty crappy, but you're intentionally glossing over some things to paint a worse picture than what is actually there. Samuel Jackson doesn't just "fall out" of the wheelchair out of the blue for no reason, The Beast breaks his shoulder and injures him, causing him to collapse out of it. I'll grant you it's a pretty stupid way for him to go out, but he doesn't just spaz out and flop onto the ground. Bruce Willis' "kryptonite" is water, as the movie explains, and yeah while it does sound stupid for him to drown in a puddle, you've got to think of it in terms of a superhero's weakness. Since it's used as a Kryptonite sort of thing, Superman seems like a fair comparison. When he's around Kryptonite, he too loses all of his strength where any Tom, Dick, or Harry could come along and beat the shit out of him, it's his weakness, it costs him his powers and renders him weak. The same applies to Bruce Willis when his head is being dunked underwater and he's being forcibly drowned. In your review you make it sound like someone flicks some water on him and he suddenly can't do anything. That's now how the movie plays it. He is first thrown into a big tank of water and wrestles with The Beast while submerged for a good while, and THEN is dragged over to the puddle and forcibly drowned. It's the same deal with the Sam Jackson death. You're exaggerating what happened to make it look worse. 1/10 should be reserved for the complete failures of film. Glass was by no means a great movie but at the same time it wasn't anywhere near the worst.

[@PentameronSV]

I believe it to be a difference between common rating systems and his rating system. In common rating systems, the ratings start at, for example, 10/10 and they are deducted according to weaknesses of the film. In HIS rating system, however, the ratings start at 5/10. He increases or decreases the ratings according to the strengths and weaknesses of the film respectively. He has explained this in one of his videos (I forgot which one).

[@WiloPolis03]

I know this is coming from someone who actually really enjoyed the film (probably a 7.5/10 for me), but you just can't ignore the work M Night Shyamalan (however you spell that freaking name) put into the visual direction and atmosphere. And James Macovoy and Samuel L Jackson's performances boost the movie wayyy above a 1/10 no matter how much someone could hate the decisions Shyamalan made as a director.

[@bobjones2959]

This is coming from someone who has only seen half of Unbreakable and hasn't seen Glass so I may well be taking this out of thin air here, but I never interpreted what this guy said about Sam Jackson's death to mean that he literally falls out of his chair for no reason, all he said was that he fell off his chair and the point was that it was extremely anti-climactic. As for Bruce Willis, I thought water being his "weakness" was meant to just mean he can't swim and has an aversion to it, not that he actually reacts to it the same way that Superman does with Kryptonite.

Lol the background music is perfect for this video

What's the name of the music?

cr1tikal: this movie was okay but the ending sucked ass adum: This film was legitimately upsetting and infuriating.

Kritical also gave Blade Runner 2049 a 15% despite calling it the most beautiful movie he's ever seen. I wonder what Charlie would have given it if it were just an average looking film. 1%?

[@Tetfima]

I thought Glass was badass, just saw it yesterday and loved it! Very emotionally compelling with the characters I've been following since Unbreakable! The specific flaws are noted but the movie hit some great emotional beats with me personally. Sorry you couldn't enjoy it man, great review nonetheless :)

I must say how impressed I am that you can totally disagree with somebody but still give them credit for their review.Shows intelligence and class.

[@KarnRulez]

It was a good comedy

Aye, fuck you.

[@kabeltelevizio]

Having watched it recently, I am honestly not sure whether this comment was sarcasm or not... The movie was simply so bad.

[@JacobSomeUniqueIdentifier]

I actually really enjoyed a LOT of this movie. Obviously looking past various glaring issues, I enjoyed seeing David Dunn and Mr. Glass back on screen and it was nice to see a continuation of Kevin (etc.) from Split. That being said the climax of the story and the ending overall was a complete slap in the face. Story and respect for the characters were thrown in the garbage in the interest of building the foundations for an extended universe. The ending was a huge let down.

[@DarkDanielFF]

I usually agree with most of your reviews and although i agreed with some of the points you made with this one I cant help but notice that you didnt semn to understand a lot of the movie(mainly the secret society's methods and intentions and Glass's plan and character in general), I'd suggest rewatching it. Not saying this because I personally loved this movie(maybe I am a little) but because you got a lot of things wrong. For example: the lights in kevin's room are not activated when a threatening personality is out. They're activated by a proximity sensor to keep him away from the door. Keep up the good content.

[@alex.theman2839]

Daniel Figueiras you’re right. It’s an interesting film.

[@decentlyaverage9483]

@@alex.theman2839 Adum hasnt watched the fucking film. "Mr glass falls off his wheelchair and dies" Seriously? like actually forreal?

[@cyphercoll]

The lights were stupid either way. How did they know they were going to work? And even if they tested on someone else with DID, it's still a stupid idea. And @Decently Average ok, McAvoy punch him in the ribs etc. but everything about this 3rd act is stupid as hell. Especially Paulson's character going around and explaining the whole plot lmao. It was funny af, when Dunn was being drowned and the SWAT guy just stopped for a second, to let her talk to him. Not to mention that Dunn wasn't even struggling to stay alive, it wasn't even that violent.

[@DarkDanielFF]

@@cyphercoll I agree that having a character going around explaining the plot is unnecessary and they should trust a little more in their audience but personally I didn't feel like it was that much "in your face". The swat guy stopped because she wanted him to stop(don't forget they were part of the same society and she had authority over him) to explain to David that if he simply stopped acting like a superhero she would let him live. Lastly David was resisting but he spent a long time under water which makes him weak.

[@cyphercoll]

@@DarkDanielFF the execution of Dunn's death was weak. In Unbreakable he almost drowned in the pool, but still got up and beat that murderer. Here he doesn't do ANYTHING to stay alive, swat guy was using ONE hand on his head, and Dunn wiggles a little bit. It just didn't seem like he was really drowning. Looked like he gave up. One simple fix is to get like 3 guys to hold him down.

I know it wasn't clear at all but I'm pretty sure that convincing them that they weren't superheroes was the humane way to deal with it that they mentioned but when they started breaking out they had no choice but to kill them

[@beepbeep2446]

Ka Chow yes that’s true but why tf didn’t you contain them better. Especially Sam Jackson. Plus the addition of the society is so stupid and how they explain it. I get where he was going, but I didn’t like that at all.

Number of people didn't realize that. The Reason all 3 have go to a psychiatric evaluation or therapy to drop their "delusions"
