Glass (2019)

Director:  M. Night Shyamalan

Writers: M. Night Shyamalan

Starring:  James McAvoy, Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, Sarah Paulson and M. Night Shyamalan.

Tagline:  Real villains are among us. Real heroes are within us..

The Overview:  Beware of Spoilers…

David Dunn (Willis), the hero with super-strength and the brilliant but evil Elijah Price (Jackson), both from Unbreakable along with Kevin Wendell Crumb (McAvoy), the serial killer with multiple personalities from Split find themselves locked up together in a mental ward.  Dr. Ellie Staple (Paulson) is providing therapy to convince the three that they don’t have super powers, even though she knows that they do.  So what is her end game?

McAvoy is fun to watch as he moves from personality to personality.  He’s the star of the show.  Willis and Jackson don’t have a lot to do until the end, but their presence is essential (and felt) through0ut the movie.  Paulson is always good and a great addition to this world.  Shyamalan’s twist works well and sets up more movies in this universe.

Glass was fun.  It rates 3 of 5 stars.
