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.

It's the work of a filmmaker who, no less than the genre he's trying to reimagine, feels stuck on repeat.
"Glass" is a movie so muddled and so meta that it not only seeks to remind you - implicitly, and every five minutes - how movies work, but it includes a character who explicitly comments upon the action.
"Glass" isn't a terrible film but neither is it a particularly good one, and it certainly doesn't stick the landing the way the filmmaker and his hardy fans have probably hoped.
M. Night Shyamalan has crafted a very effective creepshow with "Glass," a shotgun marriage of his 2000 horror hit "Unbreakable" and 2016's "Split," an even bigger blockbuster.
Worst movie of 2019!
A mix of half-formed ideas baked into an uneven casserole. Overlong, talky, filled with meta references, and with a strangely low-energy tone, the movie never fully gels.
An uneven but satisfying finale to an accidental trilogy that looks like an action/thriller but is really an exploration of modern superhero mythology.
All that foreshadowing sets up expectations for a massive climax - one that, because of the story reminding the viewer of how epic it is, sabotages itself and becomes distinctly underwhelming.
This movie is a genuine disaster -- a grotesque mishmash of two distinct narratives that clearly do not go together into some kind of grand cinematic peanut butter cup.
I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed. Yet for a Shyamalan film, I'd rather take disappointment over disastrous any day.
Sucking up to comic-book devotees while also mocking them viciously, it's almost offensive on several levels but, in the end, simply proves too damn silly to take that seriously.
The problem is Shyamalan has not kept up with the times.
