    Glass starts pretty damn good and hooks you in very early on. The first act has some fantastic action sequences, and for fans of Unbreakable, you'll love the nostalgic feeling you get.

    Sadly, it's all downhill from there. Elijah and David barely have any talking time with each other, which was weird when considering the history the two of them have together. Speaking of Elijah, he is severely underused during the first act and some of the second act.

    The third act is one big dumpster fire. There were so many ways you could take the final thirty minutes, and it's like M. Night Shyamalan purposefully chose the worst one to piss off the audience. Oh, and the ending? One of the most unsatisfying and frustrating endings ever.

    Regarding the acting, James McAvoy gives a stupidly good performance. Seriously, it's some of the best I've seen, and without his return, this movie would be a complete piece of garbage. Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson are solid in their respective roles for the content that was given to them.

    I'm a massive fan of Unbreakable and enjoyed Split, so as a fan of the two films, I hate the fact that this is one of the most disappointing movies I've seen. It's not horrible, but it it's not what fans deserved.
