Critics Consensus

Glass displays a few glimmers of M. Night Shyamalan at his twisty world-building best, but ultimately disappoints as the conclusion to the writer-director's long-gestating trilogy.

This may not be M. Night Shyamalan's worst movie, though it's surely his most disappointing.

You have to admire the nerve of Shyamalan for attempting something like this-and indeed, for choosing Glass as the title for a film so unashamedly non-transparent.

With a movie jumping from character to character so often, it just didn't have flow or pacing or tone.

Rated: 2/5

might find its monologues about comic books pretentious. However, I believe it comes from a genuine love of comics from Shyamalan. [...] Some may dislike it for its overflowing uniqueness, but I ended up quite captivated with it.

Glass unfortunately gets bogged down in overtly precise plot mechanics and not trusting the audience to keep up that it falters in the narrative progression and thematic clarity...

Rated: B-

The problem with Glass is that the storyline is too hollow to support such ideas. It’s obvious that Shyamalan has thought a lot about theme, but in attempting to dissect it, he leaves the story and characters behind.

Rated: 2/5

Bruce Willis is solid. As always. The rest of the cast is great. Some odd shifts in tone but overall enjoyable.

Loved it and the characters. Great way to bring unbreakable, split, and now glass to a satisfying conclusion

Honestly, forget the critics... this film was phenomenal. The ending "most definitely" throws you, but the whole body of work of the film comes together seamlessly... & Elijah himself... a true bloody mastermind... til the very end.

This is actually the winner of the worst big screen movie I have seen beyond made for TV movies. I’m amazed M. Night Shyamalan is able to pull such lackluster performances from such amazing actors. Biggest climactic letdown I’ve seen written, most cringe worthy script, awkward Stockholm syndrome plot with Anya and the split character. Please let me forget this.
