Glass is a thrilling action and sci-fi movie that is directed by M. Night Shyamalan. This movie is a sequel to two of his previous movies, Unbreakable and Split. Glass is the last part of the trilogy, and it brings together the stories and characters of the previous two films. The movie stars Tirra Dent, Casey Manderson, Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, and James McAvoy.
The story of Glass starts soon after the conclusion of Split. Kevin Wendell Crumb, a man with 23 different personalities, including a superhuman entity known as The Beast, is on the loose. The protagonist, David Dunn, is a vigilante who operates under the name, The Overseer. He is on the hunt for Kevin, and soon their paths cross, leading to a confrontation. As the two fight, they are captured by the authorities and are taken to a secret institution for the criminally insane. While inside the institution, they meet Elijah Price, also known as Mr. Glass, who is also in custody there.
The story picks up and becomes more complex as the three characters are subjected to psychological tests by Dr. Ellie Staple, a psychiatrist who specializes in delusions of grandeur, a condition which she believes to be affecting the three characters. Ellie tries to convince them that their powers are not real, and that they are merely experiencing delusions, for which they need treatment. It is during these sessions that the characters explore their identities, powers and how they come to be in their current predicament.
As the story unfolds, some shocking truths are unearthed about the three characters, their identities, and their powers. Dr. Glass tries to prove that he is not delusional and that his superhuman intellect is not a figment of his imagination. On the other hand, Kevin and David fight to prove that their abilities are real and not a result of mental illness. The three characters must decide whether to accept that they are mentally ill or to embrace their superhuman abilities.
Glass is a movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Throughout the film, you are continually trying to figure out what is going on, and what the final outcome will be. The director, M. Night Shyamalan, does a fantastic job of creating an atmosphere that is both tense and suspenseful. The cinematography is outstanding, with excellent camera angles and stunning visuals that bring the story to life.
The acting in Glass is fantastic. Bruce Willis is excellent in his role as The Overseer. He brings a level of intensity to the character, which makes the audience believe that he truly has superhuman abilities. Samuel L. Jackson, who plays Elijah Price (Mr. Glass), is brilliant in his role, bringing a calm and collected demeanor to the character that makes him seem like a mastermind.
