Maybe we get a death of superman style Resurrection But twist is that it's not actually David but a team of people Organised by his son. So in its like reverse of reign of the supermen.
Marshmellow3971 I KNOW! That's the only major ussue I have with the film. I am completely fine with David dying but it happened so pointlessly and anticlimactically.
Let us not forget what Mister Glass once said to David 19 years ago “It’s ok to be afraid David...this next part won’t be like a comic book..the real world isn’t drawn into tiny boxes of squares made for it..” This is NOT marvel. We are not among gods of DC... This is a world that is out to break you like Glass...
@Frank Castle Agree a thousand percent. I wish I was more baffled by the throngs that are praising the virtues of this movie. . .but I've been working in entertainment too long to be surprised by the collective celebration of mediocrity. Sigh.
I loved the movie. It was about the title character, Glass and his strong beliefs. He sacrificed the many to find David and like Ellie Staple said they all broke out, it was a suicide mission. He meant all three would die to show world that superhumans existed. Elijah was no hero by any means, he was the anti-hero. And in the end he defeated a centuries old faction and let the world know.
The problem is: did Glass really destroy the secret society? All they need to do is plant stories that the videos are a hoax. Now, if they would’ve shown scenes of people around the world discovering their superpowers then that would’ve been nice because at that point people REALLY believe it.
@@eyeheartsushi2212 would be too cheesy like in Heroes or X-men or something. Like this he can get back to it with much more space to do something new without being forced to look back.
Bruce Willis character should have gone into overdrive and detect the lady's evil intentions or he should have broken the handcuffs and touched her. Then team up with glass (this is the part where the good guy and bad guy team up) -- when glass locked him in the room -- and then let beast wreck havoc on the cops after blowing up the building. Imagine Bruce telling Glass while trapped i need to talk to you 😮
I thought I was gonna walk away hating this movie when they killed all three..but the movie kept going and revealed Mister Glass TRULY was a Mastermind! Then the video evidence was revealed to the world..and I realized that Mister Glass creates a new telling of the history of the world that once stopped at comic books, now the truth is revealed. This isn’t a true traditional superhero movie, but it is a movie about a world waking up to the idea that YES we have extraordinary people. YES there are people who tried to shield your eyes from realizing this. YES they have failed and fell to Mister Glass’s ultimate plan. If they really did the whole Osaka tower idea it would have fallen into predictable by the numbers superhero tropes. Hero wins, villain gets his ultimate audience and dies in that goal and the world is awoken. The society KNEW very well how this would’ve played it out, and made sure the event wouldn’t play out like the comics, but Mister Glass has lived his life knowing the ins and outs of comic stories, how they’ve modernized and deconstructed themselves. He has literally unlocked the key to get this out to the public eye at long last. M Night did NOT want to do another Cinematic universe that has taken over modern cinema just to cash in on the prospect and in many ways we should appreciate that this is STAYING as a trilogy, however what he STILL did do was open the universe, the other super humans in this universe now know the time is now to show themselves and thus Mister Glass’s plan of an “origin story” literally created the origins of EVERYONE else in this world. So the universe IS opened up but more stories are only up to the audience’s imaginations.
My problems were as follows: -The group felt like it didn't have as much build up as it should have - David didn't have a moment with his son and his death was really strange (semi forgiven with ending that Joseph sees his father's legacy live on) when the rest of the character's were with the one that they loved -Ending had a lot of random twists (I kinda liked them but may appear all over the place). Btw, the mix of Mr. Crumb on the train and David was beautiful and so seemless. My overall opinion: Good and fulfilling as an end to a trilogy, but not the most genious of them. Overall, this trilogy was actually pretty awesome. Action in this movie was enough/more than expected. Dunn is awesome. The fact that he dies still makes sense regardless if I found it stupid. He was portrayed as an old vigilante similar to Batman who needs to retire. He also has the burden of never telling Audrey that he was a hero so now he can find peace with her in his death. For me, the film felt it went by so fast. Handled the you're not a real hero pretty well. Most controversy will definetly come form the direction at the end.
did you also know in the original Unbreakable, there was a SHIELD comic in the background when they go back to his art auction gallery? SHIELD, a secret organization trying to keep things under wraps with a history of corruption by HYDRA.
@@UnbelievabIeMontages Remember the scene in Unbreakable about ancient texts and chewed up into commercial garbage. BOOM! MIND BLOWN! Just thought of that not long ago. Elijah was right about everything from the beginning. Even his attacks to find people. Justifiably, there were people out there who are super. The society seems to have been hinted as to why we don't hear about these superheroes.
Yup it all makes sense and there was even some more of that as Dr. Staple mentions how comic conventions are. You go back and rewatch Unbreakable and take a look at what the comics Elijah reads and several comic titles and pictures in the stores. You will notice some revelations that appear in Glass.
Glass is what Unbreakable was for its time. Don't kid yourself, people... Unbreakable was very much unappreciated and underrated when it came out, and most people jump on the bandwagon AFTER learning the twist from Split. The current superhero climate is formulaic while Glass, in a way, forcing the audience to pay close attention to every little detail from each movie. Glass has its flaws, but it seems the issues most people are having is that they were expecting the typical superhero formula with the M. Night Shyamalan twist. David was no Superman... just a random guy with superhuman capabilities. His death reflected that. Kevin was no different. We, the audience, put expectations based on the typical hero formula (David = hero = happy ending or hero's death). The ending was basically telling the audience that these characters that you love are mere ripples in a vast ocean with the ripples being what made you take notice of the ocean in the first place now.
@Frank Castle Except it is told in the film that the reason it is his weakness is because he made it so. This whole trilogy is showing us what people can do when they believe they can but he has trauma and is scared of drowning. It is like when a power lifter is able to squat 300kg but is scared of a spider cos he has an arachnophobia and will not be able to kill the spider even tho he is very much capable of doing so by squashing it. You are just trying to act like you can outsmart this trilogy when you did not even understand half of it...
His personality switches were admirable and dramatic, but I will say this: his accent still kinda wavers just a bit. That being said, I find his character to be one of the most interesting villains of all time
It doesn't make any sense for David to question if he has powers or not. He literally touches people and instantly gets a vision of any crimes they've committed. That's something that's very real and unquestionable in the world of the film.
That’s the point though. She does a good job of explaining to him that what he might be seeing or feeling is what he wants to feel. Ultimately he starts to believe in himself, and knows that he has powers, and when he identifies that... Ellie decides he is too big of a threat and has to die
Ghost James St. Patrick exactly this. At the end when she was talking in front of the group, she was saying we don’t have to kill these super powered beings anymore, if we just convince them that it’s all in their mind
You have to understand that David had low self-esteem and very low self-confidence, thus the reason for not believing he had any super human abilities. He represented a key trait in many humans: he didn't want to be special nor have the responsibility that comes with such power. Believe it or not but some of us know we have special abilities and we choose not to do anything with them because we know the weight that comes with it all: we lose total sense of ourselves for the enjoyment and entertainment of others.
She gave him a very believable explanation. He knew about the Horde and some of the personalities, he saw Hedwig walking down the street with brick dust on his pants, and quickly put the evidence together. Is he some sort of telepath? Or is he just really perceptive. It's the same way Sherlock Holmes solved crimes.
@Ghost James St. Patrick That's exactly why she said she only had three days to convince them of being mentally ill, rather than having super powers. She never wanted to kill them but Glass' outsmarted her and they became too real to let them live. I'd like to think that David might come back, just as Superman did, but even if he doesn't I don't think that sole reason (his demise) justifies the low scores this film is getting since it's a really great film.
I don't get how everyone is disappointed with the end when Kevin gets shot my jaw dropped, when David was drowned I was devastated,and when glass finds out he was right all along and realized he was a super human with a unfortunate kryptonite and says mama I wasn't a mistake I teared up the ending was good because you didn't see it coming and it made you feel something unlike most movies were there is no emotion what so ever
I believe David isn't dead... He downed in the school pool and was on the bottom of the pool for 5 minutes. So he could come back from a puddle... Notice that they didn't show any funeral scenes in the movie too
@@Brandon.S.Brooker Him not being dead doesn't alter the ending at all. He will still be seen fighting the beast, bending steel and dying on the security footage. This is what drives everyone to that location
The fact that they bring up Superman a lot, makes me think that just as it happened with Superman, David might come back to life. As you said, there are no funeral scenes, and that makes possible for (at least) both David and Kevin to be alive for a sequel.
All I can say is that, as a writer and as a fan of this series, I am so thankful for M Night accomplishing two things: first, for doing the story justice. He had the patience, which I would have to say is his superpower, to span this trilogy over a course of 19 years. He didn't rush it and he didn't neglect any detail in creating the perfect story to sum up where the series originally began. So thank you for that - and second, for paying homage to the fans of this series. By the time the movie ended, I felt completely satisfied as if I had just been served the best dessert to my five course meal. I couldn't have been happier. So many film franchises forget about the fans who support the films from the beginning because they only care about the idea they are trying to convey rather than making the fan a part of the actual premise, which I believe M Night has done beautifully. So all I can say is thank you for delivering on a much anticipated film and thank you for not coming up short. This is by far one of the best movies I have ever seen and one of the best trilogies ever created. Thank you.
I think overtime people will re dissect the film and the whole trilogy overtime and come to appreciate it slowly like unbreakable. 😊 and I agree M did a awesome job showing us a different perspective and his own story about superheroes and many different themes of overcoming etc
One question the movie didn't answer which I've been wondering about is that of Casey's mom. We know in the movie Split that her dad dies from a heart attack and she goes to live with her abusive and perverted uncle (thankfully we learn in Glass that he's now in prison) but we never learn about what happened to her mom. Neither Split nor Glass tell us about her mom, whether she died or she split, we just know that she's out of the picture for whatever reason.
This Movie is so genius honnestly it was so sad seeing David and Kevins death but they each had their own movie and this was about glass's master plan and in each film accomplished their goals David became a super hero and put glass away the beast showed the world he was real and wanted to kill the unpure and Glass finally showed the World that these People do exsist
To me, it still came off more fo a sequal to split rather than as equal to Unbreakable. This movie in genral is sitll mainly focused on Kevin since Glass is drugged up during most of the first act of the film. But in the end I do get how Glass in someways while always seeing hismelf as the villain was actually the one whos aves all the super beings in the world from the Society.
I think if Glass and the entire Eastrail 177 trilogy, came out on the timeline M. Night Shyamalan originally had planned back in the early 2000s, I think perhaps we as a community would be having a very different opinion and conversation. To me it seems we are and will be “Split” on the ending of this trilogy, simply because of timing. Going into this movie, we all probably had different expectations on the basis that we had gotten used to the formula of comic book movies presented by Marvel and DC alike. If this trilogy had come during an earlier time, perhaps between the years of 2000-2007, before the release Iron Man 1, imagine how that would have changed the reception to ending of this final movie. Imagine how that would change our paradigms on super hero movies in total! I for one would like to imagine how perfect of a transition that would have been, ending with the notion that superheroes do in fact exist in the real world, and then letting the comic book movies of the past 10 years unravel.
Trek this is a fanastic comment man. Im actually working on a video that is going to explain this exact line of thought. This film to me was a cross examination of a culture obsessed with Super Heros. It bucks every convention, and then kinda shits on you... it was really well done. But what can I say, Im a masochist.
Samuel Jackson did say in an interview that the ending was changed due to the status of our society and what's going on in the world and what it would have looked like. First i thought it was the use of technology and social media but then I saw your comment
If they'd done that they would've cast someone else as Kevin and I can't imagine anyone else in that role. James McAvoy was sooo good and stole the show in both Split and Glass
L. ka Nah. They had the powers all the way. But they were soo weak. Hey, I have flashlight and a gun - beast is dead. Hey, I have water - cape crusader is dead. Glass - he is kinda dead anyway... The only massage you get is that if you want to possess superpowers, you need some OP ones, like Black Adam, Superboy prime, Flash etc. There is no point of being easily countered with all of that nonsense. If they did not have powers in the first place. Well, we see a reality show of three freaks.... And.... The end. It would have been so fun, wouldn’t it?
No, it was all planned by Glass. Do you really think they all died? No. David can be revived by Casey who by the way is a healer which explains why she always fail to kill herself after multiple suicide. Kevin is not dead because his other personalities can takeover the mind before the last nerve ends and be healed by Casey. Mrs. Price is introduced for a reason with Casey by her side. Mr. Glass knew who Casey is and what she can do. Only Mr. Glass is dead. But not the other two.
Dude! I'm still thinking David can be alive because if just the water gets out of his lungs his unbreakable power can revive him. But I never think like that about Casey. hope what you are saying will be true because I really disappointed after this movie
Well Casey does have power to heal people. That's why Kevin's beast is weak when she is around. I heard they wanted Kevin and Casey to be an awkward duo of antihero.
We start the movie with 3 main roles. The creator(Glass), the created(Overseer) and the victim(The Horde). That is also where is ends. Mom is the creator, son is the created, and the girl is the victim. A Trilogy within a trilogy. Also notice the secret society is a 3 leaf clover(another trilogy reference) which i think represents the average normal person, with these superheros being the rare 4 leaf clovers. Glass says at the end that this was a origin story, and what do most origin stories have in common? Tragedy. Glass wants the supers to awaken, and he sends his video to 3 people. I am left to think that these are the new Trilogy, and this was all to awaken them as much as the world. After all whats more tragic then the loss of a loved one.
Does the ending mean more superhero’s are gonna start popping up randomly? I thought the broadcast was supposed to bring all of the superhumans to light.
The thought process behind the creative direction of the three films is this, "Humans can attain great things through the power of belief." These superhumans aren't superhumans in the way we think about comic books. They are more grounded in the real world, but they are still capable of doing incredible things. The more a person believes that they are capable, the more they become capable, and the stronger they become. To put it into a loose comparison think of the X-men Character Gladiator. He is incredibly strong and powerful, but the more confidence he exhibits the stronger he becomes.
My ending takeaway was almost parallel to that of The X_Men... for decades they lived in the shadows, but found their way out, and fought for "equal rights"... when Ms. Price grabs Joseph and Casey's hands, and says something to the effect of "This is where we join the universe", it says to me that, in the "Unbreakable" world, more humans with extraordinary powers are going to see the videos, and garner the strength to come out pf the shadows.... just one mans interpretation. ~Amadeus~
I’m glad I was surprised I don’t want a predictable movie good job M night I just left the theater I’m still thinking about the movie ....thats good story telling right there ...we are going to be talking and debating about this movie years down the road and I think people will realize this was a realistic conclusion ...only thing I wish was maybe David Dunn death should have meant something more like a big sacrifice where he saves tons of people like maybe that chemical bomb should have went off they should of had that showdown in the tower other then that I appreciate the movie for what it is great great story
all that butthurt in the comments just because the ending wasn't a cliche The movie is great and worthy of watching, the ending was realistic. Mister Glass manipulated Dunn and Crumb so that they "helped" him (without knowing) to fulfill his true goal, which was showing the world that superhumans existed. With that accomplished all the three of them became immortalized. The raw truth is that just because Dunn was a hero, the movie didn't owed us a "worthy hero's death" get real people edit: plus I think that the movie tried to show how such incredible and amazing creatures can have such a tragic non-heroic death
@@darthfenrir7773 breh the DID aspect makes it more believable. It is all about believing and what you can achieve through it. David's death was tragic cuz it seemed pathetic (reminded me of a scene from Superman Returns). I was pretty po'd, but I can warm up to it especially as I saw him as an aging vigilante. In the beginning, there was a lign aluding to David needing a break (which he wouldn't take without force).
@@Brandon.S.Brooker Oh, I wasn't disagreeing. Personally, I'm not particularly interested in these movies. The emphasis on realism just struck me as a bit silly considering the premise of the movie.
I think this movie symbolism was huge. I though M. Night was trying to say that if people stopped oppressing other people, then those people would find their true gifts. Just my thoughts.
Also, I can't believe anybody would dislike this movie. I thought it was extremely well done the entire way through. Great action, original plot, and some awesome quotes that almost remind me of The Watchmen style dialogue. "This was an origin story."
Just watched the movie tonight.... I loved every direction they came. Gives potential. Gives thought. Gave realism to what people are capable of if you open your mind
I also really liked it. I know a lot of people arent going to care for the ending, but thats the difficult part of being an M Knight fan. Its either incredible, or complete horse-shit lololollol
If Glass proves successful in convincing the audience that they may be superheroes if they truly believe then, it has been an origin story this whole time.
Basically I wholly concur and appreciate this review+assessment As to what I feel about "Glass":: Here's what I came up with as the most succinct but effective way to praise it:: _[[ "Glass" ]] is "Infinity War"......_ _....for the Mind!_ _[[ in other words...._ _"Glass" .....is _*_A FREAKIN MASTERPIECE!!!_*_ ]]_
Personally, I loved this filmed. It tied the other two together while staying true to its themes. The question of 'is this real' was teased just enough to get you to believe one way or another, and without it getting too cliche or over-the-top. It was all believable and that's what makes this work. It's not a Marvel or DC movie, it's how 'superheroes' would be in the real world. Everyone's powers aren't other worldly, but extraordinary enough. And Glass being the orchestrator of all. You had to think he'd known about the secret society for awhile. Given he spent his life searching for superheroes and only found two, he knew something was up. And the twists left and right at the end brought everything full circle - Kevin's father dying on the train, the secret society keeping supers at bay but with a psychiatric approach, and Glass' revelation to the world that we are more than those limits. Beautiful, if you ask me.
After reading the comments and seeing a lot of people did not understand how a "puddle" could have killed David when he's supposed to be extremely strong I thought I'd give my viewpoint on it. This is how I saw it and why it makes sense to me. I think a lot of people are forgetting that water is David Dunn's kryptonite. He had just battled the beast in the large water container, trying to stay alive while simultaneously breaking the container so he can get out of the water. Large bodies of water or deep holes in the ground filled with water (which the puddle was- in an earlier shot you can see how deep the hole is before it fills with water so it wasn't just an inch of water in a puddle) will incapacitate him. It's like Superman being shot with a kryptonite bullet and dying because they didn't get it out in time or in BvS breathing in the kryptonite gas hindered him and weakened him immensely. That is what happened to David, he was already weak from battling in the water with the beast and breaking the container to get out, essentially using a lot of his weakening strength to get out. Joseph even yells at the police before it's revealed they aren't there to help that his father is weak and needs help. David was extremely weak by the time those two large strong men came over and shoved his face into the deep pothole. Maybe he'll come back but this is a realistic superhero movie and the heroes stay dead. I was bummed too to see him die (Bruce is my favorite actor) too, but to me how he died made sense the need for all three's death made sense.
@@TheExecutioner21 That might be it or they wanted it to be evident like other superhero movies, but this is an M Knight movie, it's not going to be flashy and over the top like other superhero movies we're all so used to now. I've talked to a few friends who didn't like how they all went out, and once I explained it the way I perceived it, they understood it better and said it changed the ending for them.
dude I remember when I had to wait 2 weeks before some one to post a explanation to the ending of a movie, not even 24 hours out and already got one up lol
Yeah, I walked out of the theater and posted this close to 1am EST because I know that people are going to be searching for answers. There will be a few follow ups explaining the finer points of the ending and some theories as well, so make sure your subbed :)
Most of early 90s kids come for David, because Unbreakable is beautiful part of their teenage era. And it's just stupid when he easily erase David from story.
Unbreakable came out in 2000. Everyone born in the early 1990's was under 10 years old, not teenagers. But I agree it was a very lame way to have the hero die.
Loved the movie and what it represented but also got angered that all of them died even though all of it was not in vain and now more then ever more like them will show up. The organizaion cannot stop them all. The was a origin story.
Literally just watched glass. I was watching unbreakable again last night so it was pretty good sequel, plus I had watched split around the time it came out. I loved it.
Another theory, is that there are really no superhumans and the psychiatrist, (the doctor) and all other members of ‘the society’ also have psychiatric disorders. They have shared psychosis and believes their duty is to hunt down these superhuman. The scene where the doctor goes to the comic shop can be treated as an “evidence” to this theory. And so, the next sequel would be the story of the doctor, or the society. But this is just me
Just saw Glass. I left the theater thinking...Not sure what to think. I give it a 50% out of 100% for now. The ending was not earned was my thought. I will have to wait to see what Night Shyamalan says his motivation was for this movie. If he says he wanted to f*ck with people's expectations or minds, I would say great job. The script did need a bit of a rewrite I thought. Great acting though from the main cast. Overall, a must see if you seen the other two movies. But yes the ending will be polarizing. Night Shyamalan doesn't make it easy for the veiwer to love this movie at it's surface.
I like it very much, super brave end, Shyamalan has his own style for his films, surprised me, I will remember this ending forever. Delivered what he promised and closed the trilogy well in the director's style. James Macvoy is perfect changing the personalities in front of the camera.
@@kingol4801 I understand but I meant Obviously he didn't the movie focus on delight fans of superheroes movies, and that is his way. And I appreciate that.
The movie was brilliant. This is not a different universe. This is the real world and the real world consequences of superheroes. Many other franchises have tried this idea, but all fail except for this because this film unceremoniously kills off its heroes (Tarantino-esque) and still let's the main character of this film succeed, completing his arc. I do not think this cinematic universe will continue and that's a good thing. I am satisfied and entertained.
Micah Tokayer Nah. It just leaves you in hate for humanity, killing of things they do not understand, and makes you wonder that If I were to have superpowers, I would need to eliminate all the police/military etc services to live a peaceful life after. That is not a good aftermath, nor a moral of the story. You should not root for the serial killers more, than for the stupid humanity... How is that a good ending? The beast should have became human due to these kind words, leave all his other personalities and lived with that girl somewhere in the forest. Cape crusader should have been respected by the police and got a medal for bravery..... for handling the situation... Glass - well, just let him rot behind the prison cell. Case solved. The I would be happy. Not humans killing all they do not understand. That is a bad message...
1) Kevin lies about split personalities 2) David Dunn and his son are actually the kidnappers in Glass 3) The psychiatrist is actually keeping them safe, being the child killers they are 4) In Split, the shotgun was filled with rock salt 5) I was high watching this
The problem I have with this “secret organization” is that it’s so random and comes out of nowhere. How did they know about all threes weaknesses? Where did they come from? How did they know Dunn and beast were fighting at the beginning of the movie?
If this series is continued, if think a big plot device would be the broadcast. Maybe those images created a boom in superheros and the big enemy of the film would be this secret society.
David Dunn most likely didn’t died,he was under water for tops 3 mins,he got out and wa able to breathe for another 2 mins or so.The police officer “drowned” David for merely 1-2 mins so most likely David didn’t die at all,but merely in a coma.
Some People: Hurr durr I HATE THE ENDING Me: But why? Some People: cuz they all died! Some people need to know that not every story has a happy ending. While the ending could have been done better, killing them off was alright. But I do have to say that Dunn’s character could have died better.
Yes. Also that society felt like it needed a little more build up than just a scene in Unbreakable where Elijah explains the ancient stories of superheroes.
Because it leavers with moral of the story - humans are evil, they are the treat. And hence, serial killers are presented as protagonists. So, it means two things :: 1) They were too weak. Hence, if you want to use your powers, you should be literary like Superman, being fully immortal, and being able to wipe out the entire humanity in two seconds, being able to to move planets etc. or 2) I need to kill all the police, and the army, and the any remotely resembling treat specimen. And only then I can live freely with my superpowers. That is the issue. It leaves you with nothing more than a hatred for humanity and the sympathy for the villains. Those, who really should be despised...
Regardless of what the critics say, fans of this genre of Shyamalan‘s trilogy will appreciate that he did have patience with these movies. The style of his superhero genre storytelling has been the ingredient in rebooting the superhero films. I am certain Christopher Nolan watched Unbreakable and thought to himself what if we could do that to Batman and give it a realistic vibe. People don’t give Shyamalan the right credit in this genre he truly Gave it a feel like no Other. Kudos to M. Night. You have come back from your rough patch and I’m sure your fans are rooting for you to succeed in the future.
They never went back for thebodyso who is to say it didnt disappear. He drown at the bottom of apool for 5 solid minutes and lived from that, seems he coudlr eturn from 30seconds drowning in a puddle!
Luke Cahill I find it hard to believe he drowned in a puddle for 30 seconds and he survived being at the bottom of a pool for 5 minutes, maybe he fake died because he knew that he wouldn’t be able to beat them all at the same time, so he faked so he could escape when no one was around
I finally saw the movie today! I couldn't see it on Friday since I was having all four of my wisdom teeth taken out so I wasn't gonna be all there for the movie. This kept popping up on my recommendations, but I was like no! I don't wanna ruin this one for myself and I'm so happy I waited.
I actually really liked this movie. I’m glad it wasn’t a typical superhero movie where there aren’t real consequences to being superhuman. It made the villains very relatable and human as well as the heroes.
I don't dislike the ending. I really loved the movie, but the ending did feel odd. I don't think it was necessarily bad but I think there was a better ending out there, Night just didn't find it. Kevin's death was honestly heart-wrenching. And I love how Dennis became a good guy at the end.
Adventist I definitely caught that, and it made so much sense... I was upset how they died but it was such a cliffhanger... love the overall film and the actual ending
He was. Problem is they didn’t give the guy enough to do throughout a big chunk of the movie. They mostly dedicated a heavy amount of screentime to Kevin i feel
The one thing that left me scratching my head was the ending ending... I mean, I can see Glass' mother not understanding how the internet works... but the OTHER two certainly should... it is easier to find out how viral your video feed is getting by sitting at home watching the counter, rather than just sitting in a train station and trying to figure out if they are watching your video or not...
@Roy G Biv dig harder. It was a trash movie with a transparent plot and only was a surprise to children or simpletons. Way to find a way to bring racism into it though.
I liked the last scene where Eli Stapleton goes to the comic book store to find more superhumans, as said by Elijah " comic books are a form of history that someone somewhere felt or experienced.... "
I loved Unbreakable it was a masterpiece, 10/10, and Split was excellent 8/10 and I just saw Glass and what they are saying is true. Its a rather good film until the last 15 minutes when Staple reveals her true purpose. Unfortunately I will mostly remember how Night shit the bed at the end and ruined the film. If only this one subplot had been excised or if at least they didnt kill off all three of them. I would have given this film an 8/10 up until that point but nooooo Night had to get a little to cute with the story. This was my worst fear realized and reminded me of The Village. The Village was also a decent film right up until the end twist which then completely negated all of the good storytelling which had taken place before. I used to be a defender of Shyamalan but after this I am done and cannot imagine seeing one of his future movies. And Its so sad because he was so close to making this a really good film and satisfying ending to the trilogy. Watching David Dunn being killed by a Philly swat cop in a most casual manner was like watching Spider-man die at the end of infinity War.
I completely disagree and thought this was a great way to end the trilogy. Mister Glass won and all three main characters died for a very meaningful cause: wake the world up to super humans as well as the secret organization killing them. Humans are evil enough to have an organization such as the one displayed if the circumstances required it, so that concept is not far fetched at all in my opinion. I also don't believe the cop that killed David Dunn was just your average John Doe cop. It's very possible that Staple had some super humans on her pay roll, ones that gave into her demands in the past that she let live, and now work for her. The movie heavily implies that there's potentially millions of super humans walking among humanity in secret, so it's also not far fetched to believe that Staple would "own" some, so to speak.
Question for M Night: Do you even test audience screen bro? This movie was great until the last 15 minutes. Let’s make a rule if you promise some epic showdown and then make a plot twist, it should not have way less impact than the showdown you promised. Smh. That sucked, hardcore. Elijah was built up as way smarter than that dumb “we’ve gone viral” ending. He should have been able to expose everything including the group and disable it. Not wait 10+ years to have an epic suicide in the front yard of the asylum he was held prisoner in. That does not sound like the actions of a smart man. And then giving your lead hero the death of a bit part action movie extra, was lame and depressing. Like really? A No face random dude killer did him in. This movie could have been so epicly awesome, but its nothing more than a lame let down now. I feel so bad for sam jack, bruce willis and james mclvoy, who really displayed some flawless acting in this movie only to have it wasted by that stinking tird of an ending.
Not saying that this movie was great, but I'm thankful for every director, who just makes his movie and does not let some shitty, uninterested test audience influence the end product.
Van Howling Testing audiences were needed. The end was bad, and I am fed with explaining it to every comment. If you have movie where you root for some serial killers more, than for humanity, which kills all it does not understand, then you have a serious movie problem. Ending was just painful, and left me with understanding that i should have not paid my money for that piece of nonsense...And this is the first time ever of me being so negative to the film...
Off topic - the Elijah flashback when he was a boy at the carnival was actually a deleted scene in Unbreakable. M. Night said that it didn't fit in the movie, but loved the scene. I'm glad he was able to find a place for it in Glass.
Great "explanation"... just had to point 1 thing out ... we didn't learn that Kevin's father was on the train that Dunn survived in *this* film... we learned it in 'Split"... think back to when Dennis gave Patricia permission to be in the light, when she went to get flowers and lay at the train doors opening... that was the moment (at least for ME), that I knew Kevin's Dad had died on the same fateful crash that Dunn survived... I KNOW I wasn't the only one that caught that, right?!? ~Amadeus~
Me and my GF speculated on what the twists would be and we almost got them all right :D we predicted that everyone will die, we predicted that there is some shady stuff with the Staple either she is a super herself or some secret government agent (they kinda spoiled it in the trailer with the cafe scene) at first I thought that maybe she is mind controller and made others move at the same time in that trailer scene. The twist that we didn't predict was the Kevins father's death on the train. Overall I liked this kind of ending, Dunn's death was very Game of Thrones and close to reality like the death of Big Daddy in Kickass. Also from the moment Staple found the tower plans that Elijah left her, I knew they are not going there actually. Mr. Glass would never risk them knowing the real location just to gloat.
Elijah is punched in the chest by the Beast, David is drowned in a puddle of water by a cop, and the Beast gets sniped by a member of the secret society after turning back into Kevin.
Loved this movie. Gotta say I didn't see all three dying, but I'm sure mr glass has a kid out there we don't know about yet. We know the overseer has a son, although he never said displayed powers, his dad would have protected his identity if they knew he did. And the haord? Well so many ways to get another villian. Anyways good trilogy. We need more of these one of the day and great explanation dude.
king muizz Well you’re in luck! Only the characters of this one movie died! The actors are all fine and living and having the time of their lives! Happily ever after!
I know M said that this was the final ending to the trilogy, but I still feel that there could be one more. Like why would he introduce this organization even if it was to answer some plot lines? The therapist said that she was planning to go to another city to stop even more extraordinary people so why not start something new from there? I know they pretty much wrapped things up with Mr. Glass ruining the secret organizations plans by sharing the security camera viewings with the world but I still think there could be more to this. Even if this really is the end then I'm satisfied that they at least ended the movie with Mr. Glass beating the secret organization.
Eh. It wasn't that bad of a film. Sure Dunn's death kinda sucked and the twists at the end were getting a little chaoitic but I thought it was quite enjoyable.
@@chrisxdm3014 This isn't an explosive crossover film. It is a superhero thriller. However, I know what you mean by saying that you expected MORE. The film wasn't necessary for the story. It is entertaining, but doesn't redefine the last two films.
Okay, so only the black man wasn't truly exceptional, just "really smart". There have been a lot of people who have been "really smart", but NO ONE has been literally bullet proof and possessing the strength of ten or more large men. This is where the movie's story stumbled. In a way, Mr. Glass was little more than a token "super human". The secret society wasn't ever truly concerned with him because he was just a gifted genius, not a superhuman. Being a telepath would've been the perfect super ability for Mr. Glass, and would've given the story more cohesion.
Still, my point is he wasn't truly exceptional, or possessing any real super human capabilities, just "really smart". Did she lock him away in her asylum because she was afraid he was smarter than her? No. The whole point of any of the three being there was because they were SUPPOSED to have truly superhuman abilities, and she was tasked with getting them to believe that they didn't. Mr. Glass was a convicted, "really smart", mass murderer. He should have been in a super max prison awaiting execution, not locked away in an asylum for people with above human abilities. The story just doesn't click when it comes to Mr. Glass because SOMEONE didn't want to do the most logical thing and give him a true super human ability.
@@riboflavinfolate3964 Being that intelligent is extremely unusual. This is a guy who is 5 steps ahead and who was able to outsmart an entire facility of people whose job it was to keep him locked inside. He even managed to trick them into believing that the procedure that they planned to use to dumb him down worked. The amount smarter Glass is compared to the average person is about on par with how strong David and the Beast are compared to the average person.
@@jackrogers5712 I see your point, truly I do. But my point is in the concept of attempting to realize superhumans in the most realistic of lights, to just make one of them "really smart" is subpar story telling. In reality there are people with IQ's meeting or exceeding 180 points or more (i.e. above genius level). We can see this, measure this, document it. In other words, it is REAL. I challenge you to show me someone who has been documented to possess the strength of ten or more men, show imperviousness to metal projectiles fired at super sonic speeds (bullets). You won't find anyone who meets this criteria. Even Mr. Glass's medical condition is a real medical condition. Why try so hard to keep Mr. Glass locked in the realm of realism, while the other two characters were given free reign in the realm of the UNreal? Just doesn't make sense on a story telling front, when making him a telepath of some kind was such a no-brainer.
@@riboflavinfolate3964 The Doctor had no true idea of Mr.Glasses intellect. She was looking at MRI's of him taken before she got there. She even says Mr.Glass was already there when she was brought into town. In effect, Mr.Glass was orders of intelligence higher than the Doctor. He was so far out there, he was able to anticipate her moves and counter her attempts to contain him and lessen his intellect. He was able to come up with plans and contingencies that would get everyone to dance at his toon.
I liked it but I understand why people don’t enjoy it. The ending is definitely divisive and underwhelming for some. Even though I didn’t expect the exact ending I knew something was up, especially with Elijah and how he wanted to go through the basement. I just kept thinking he’s not showing all his cards at this moment. I kept having to remind myself that he was doing everything he did for a specific reason. All in all, I enjoyed it, but it was not what I expected. I’m glad that it seems that M. Night is back to being a great writer and director.
Jonathan Aisel Nah. Just retire due to this movies end. Or write better movies. You teased us with the few hours of build-up. And? And? Nothing and all die. That is exactly what i paid my money for..... (Sarcasm)
Each misdirection this movie has gave me goosebumps every single time.. Alot will hate this movie and wont understand the wide possibilities of next chapters of this movie franchise.. i just hope they wont release it after 10years 😉..
The ending is Genius!!! M Night can take this in so many directions!!! Omg... The Characters stories could inspire more shuttered Superhilumans to make themselves known. David's son, while not taking after his father in the power department. Prehaps has offspring who do. Ive got other theories but ill wait. Omg i can not wait to seevthis film. Ty M. Night. Love you.
Nah. Just makes you think a few things things - humanity is evil, and we need to exterminate that. Like the Beast deserved becoming regular human, and being able to live happily with that girl.... Cape crusader should have been respected as a police man etc... And go to the psychiatrist, treat your goddamn water phobia and become really immortal...... Also, if you were to have super powers, two options - be OP with powers of Superman but no weaknesses.... Or kill all the military, and the army, and the police. Or any one related. Just to live life without the fear of humanity ever after.... That is why the ending is stupid. Too realistic, making you think that they were too easy to break.... So much “kryptonite” plot convenience, where they have each their own weaknesses that an average human can kill them..... Or that you root for the serial killers more than you root for the humanity....

Everyone dies
The twist is who telling the story?
The character glass is the key. I don't think he's dead he's trying out something about himself 🤔his other power!🤯
Stupid seceret society
Poor split
Kevin Crumb died finally knowing peace. Elijah Pryce sacrificed himself to fulfill his lifelong ambition.
David Dunn drowned in a puddle.
Maybe we get a death of superman style Resurrection
But twist is that it's not actually David but a team of people
Organised by his son.
So in its like reverse of reign of the supermen.
@@baonkang5990 weird but I guess a more realistic approach of resurrection.
Pretty much sums it up perfectly
My main problem with this movie!!!
Marshmellow3971 I KNOW! That's the only major ussue I have with the film. I am completely fine with David dying but it happened so pointlessly and anticlimactically.
Let us not forget what Mister Glass once said to David 19 years ago
“It’s ok to be afraid David...this next part won’t be like a comic book..the real world isn’t drawn into tiny boxes of squares made for it..”
This is NOT marvel.
We are not among gods of DC...
This is a world that is out to break you like Glass...
Nice pun. In other words Glass was a disappointment and contradicted itself, I think that's what he's trying to say. Although I may be wrong.
Mr glass fav hero
@Frank Castle Agree a thousand percent. I wish I was more baffled by the throngs that are praising the virtues of this movie. . .but I've been working in entertainment too long to be surprised by the collective celebration of mediocrity. Sigh.
This movie sucked.... the end....
See democrats...
Damn I teared up when glass said I'm not a mistake
"Mama"
2000: I’m not a mistake.
2004: I wasn’t a mistake, mama.
I nearly teared up when we see little baby Elijah on the ride
Me too
@@michaeliv284 he had a blast...then cast....
I loved the movie. It was about the title character, Glass and his strong beliefs. He sacrificed the many to find David and like Ellie Staple said they all broke out, it was a suicide mission. He meant all three would die to show world that superhumans existed. Elijah was no hero by any means, he was the anti-hero. And in the end he defeated a centuries old faction and let the world know.
The problem is: did Glass really destroy the secret society? All they need to do is plant stories that the videos are a hoax. Now, if they would’ve shown scenes of people around the world discovering their superpowers then that would’ve been nice because at that point people REALLY believe it.
@@eyeheartsushi2212 would be too cheesy like in Heroes or X-men or something. Like this he can get back to it with much more space to do something new without being forced to look back.
Bruce Willis character should have gone into overdrive and detect the lady's evil intentions or he should have broken the handcuffs and touched her. Then team up with glass (this is the part where the good guy and bad guy team up) -- when glass locked him in the room -- and then let beast wreck havoc on the cops after blowing up the building.
Imagine Bruce telling Glass while trapped i need to talk to you 😮
The ending was ballsy and I respect that immensely.
The film to me was a 9/10. I got what I wanted out of the film, a great and satisfying experience.
Give the movie ten years everyone will understand better and deeply appreciate the ending much more.
I thought I was gonna walk away hating this movie when they killed all three..but the movie kept going and revealed Mister Glass TRULY was a Mastermind! Then the video evidence was revealed to the world..and I realized that Mister Glass creates a new telling of the history of the world that once stopped at comic books, now the truth is revealed.
This isn’t a true traditional superhero movie, but it is a movie about a world waking up to the idea that YES we have extraordinary people. YES there are people who tried to shield your eyes from realizing this. YES they have failed and fell to Mister Glass’s ultimate plan.
If they really did the whole Osaka tower idea it would have fallen into predictable by the numbers superhero tropes. Hero wins, villain gets his ultimate audience and dies in that goal and the world is awoken.
The society KNEW very well how this would’ve played it out, and made sure the event wouldn’t play out like the comics, but Mister Glass has lived his life knowing the ins and outs of comic stories, how they’ve modernized and deconstructed themselves. He has literally unlocked the key to get this out to the public eye at long last.
M Night did NOT want to do another Cinematic universe that has taken over modern cinema just to cash in on the prospect and in many ways we should appreciate that this is STAYING as a trilogy, however what he STILL did do was open the universe, the other super humans in this universe now know the time is now to show themselves and thus Mister Glass’s plan of an “origin story” literally created the origins of EVERYONE else in this world. So the universe IS opened up but more stories are only up to the audience’s imaginations.
My problems were as follows:
-The group felt like it didn't have as much build up as it should have
- David didn't have a moment with his son and his death was really strange (semi forgiven with ending that Joseph sees his father's legacy live on) when the rest of the character's were with the one that they loved
-Ending had a lot of random twists (I kinda liked them but may appear all over the place).
Btw, the mix of Mr. Crumb on the train and David was beautiful and so seemless.
My overall opinion: Good and fulfilling as an end to a trilogy, but not the most genious of them. Overall, this trilogy was actually pretty awesome. Action in this movie was enough/more than expected. Dunn is awesome. The fact that he dies still makes sense regardless if I found it stupid. He was portrayed as an old vigilante similar to Batman who needs to retire. He also has the burden of never telling Audrey that he was a hero so now he can find peace with her in his death. For me, the film felt it went by so fast. Handled the you're not a real hero pretty well. Most controversy will definetly come form the direction at the end.
did you also know in the original Unbreakable, there was a SHIELD comic in the background when they go back to his art auction gallery? SHIELD, a secret organization trying to keep things under wraps with a history of corruption by HYDRA.
@@UnbelievabIeMontages Remember the scene in Unbreakable about ancient texts and chewed up into commercial garbage. BOOM! MIND BLOWN! Just thought of that not long ago. Elijah was right about everything from the beginning. Even his attacks to find people. Justifiably, there were people out there who are super. The society seems to have been hinted as to why we don't hear about these superheroes.
Yup it all makes sense and there was even some more of that as Dr. Staple mentions how comic conventions are. You go back and rewatch Unbreakable and take a look at what the comics Elijah reads and several comic titles and pictures in the stores. You will notice some revelations that appear in Glass.
@@UnbelievabIeMontages hmmm...
Glass is what Unbreakable was for its time. Don't kid yourself, people... Unbreakable was very much unappreciated and underrated when it came out, and most people jump on the bandwagon AFTER learning the twist from Split. The current superhero climate is formulaic while Glass, in a way, forcing the audience to pay close attention to every little detail from each movie.
Glass has its flaws, but it seems the issues most people are having is that they were expecting the typical superhero formula with the M. Night Shyamalan twist. David was no Superman... just a random guy with superhuman capabilities. His death reflected that. Kevin was no different. We, the audience, put expectations based on the typical hero formula (David = hero = happy ending or hero's death).
The ending was basically telling the audience that these characters that you love are mere ripples in a vast ocean with the ripples being what made you take notice of the ocean in the first place now.
I liked all of Sham's films until Lady in the Water... so...
@Frank Castle Except it is told in the film that the reason it is his weakness is because he made it so. This whole trilogy is showing us what people can do when they believe they can but he has trauma and is scared of drowning. It is like when a power lifter is able to squat 300kg but is scared of a spider cos he has an arachnophobia and will not be able to kill the spider even tho he is very much capable of doing so by squashing it. You are just trying to act like you can outsmart this trilogy when you did not even understand half of it...
I expected him to die but not by drowning in a fucking puddle
My only question is where is James McAvoy’s Oscar?
Lol right damn especially with the fast switch in his room lol
Agreed
His personality switches were admirable and dramatic, but I will say this: his accent still kinda wavers just a bit. That being said, I find his character to be one of the most interesting villains of all time
It doesn't make any sense for David to question if he has powers or not. He literally touches people and instantly gets a vision of any crimes they've committed. That's something that's very real and unquestionable in the world of the film.
That’s the point though. She does a good job of explaining to him that what he might be seeing or feeling is what he wants to feel. Ultimately he starts to believe in himself, and knows that he has powers, and when he identifies that... Ellie decides he is too big of a threat and has to die
Ghost James St. Patrick exactly this. At the end when she was talking in front of the group, she was saying we don’t have to kill these super powered beings anymore, if we just convince them that it’s all in their mind
You have to understand that David had low self-esteem and very low self-confidence, thus the reason for not believing he had any super human abilities. He represented a key trait in many humans: he didn't want to be special nor have the responsibility that comes with such power.
Believe it or not but some of us know we have special abilities and we choose not to do anything with them because we know the weight that comes with it all: we lose total sense of ourselves for the enjoyment and entertainment of others.
She gave him a very believable explanation. He knew about the Horde and some of the personalities, he saw Hedwig walking down the street with brick dust on his pants, and quickly put the evidence together. Is he some sort of telepath? Or is he just really perceptive. It's the same way Sherlock Holmes solved crimes.
@Ghost James St. Patrick That's exactly why she said she only had three days to convince them of being mentally ill, rather than having super powers. She never wanted to kill them but Glass' outsmarted her and they became too real to let them live.
I'd like to think that David might come back, just as Superman did, but even if he doesn't I don't think that sole reason (his demise) justifies the low scores this film is getting since it's a really great film.
I don't get how everyone is disappointed with the end when Kevin gets shot my jaw dropped, when David was drowned I was devastated,and when glass finds out he was right all along and realized he was a super human with a unfortunate kryptonite and says mama I wasn't a mistake I teared up the ending was good because you didn't see it coming and it made you feel something unlike most movies were there is no emotion what so ever
I believe David isn't dead... He downed in the school pool and was on the bottom of the pool for 5 minutes.
So he could come back from a puddle...
Notice that they didn't show any funeral scenes in the movie too
Him not being dead would defeat the purpose of the ending. He is dead to Joseph.
@@Brandon.S.Brooker Him not being dead doesn't alter the ending at all.
He will still be seen fighting the beast, bending steel and dying on the security footage.
This is what drives everyone to that location
That seems a very good point, yes David might not be dead, maybe alive, will see if another movie come up
The fact that they bring up Superman a lot, makes me think that just as it happened with Superman, David might come back to life. As you said, there are no funeral scenes, and that makes possible for (at least) both David and Kevin to be alive for a sequel.
5 minutes?
All I can say is that, as a writer and as a fan of this series, I am so thankful for M Night accomplishing two things: first, for doing the story justice. He had the patience, which I would have to say is his superpower, to span this trilogy over a course of 19 years. He didn't rush it and he didn't neglect any detail in creating the perfect story to sum up where the series originally began. So thank you for that - and second, for paying homage to the fans of this series. By the time the movie ended, I felt completely satisfied as if I had just been served the best dessert to my five course meal. I couldn't have been happier. So many film franchises forget about the fans who support the films from the beginning because they only care about the idea they are trying to convey rather than making the fan a part of the actual premise, which I believe M Night has done beautifully. So all I can say is thank you for delivering on a much anticipated film and thank you for not coming up short. This is by far one of the best movies I have ever seen and one of the best trilogies ever created. Thank you.
I think overtime people will re dissect the film and the whole trilogy overtime and come to appreciate it slowly like unbreakable. 😊 and I agree M did a awesome job showing us a different perspective and his own story about superheroes and many different themes of overcoming etc
I think the ending made a lot of sense I liked it
I didn't like it at first, but then the whole secret camera feed thing was actually really cool.
It was alright
It's a nod to an ugly incovenient truth often overlooked.
One question the movie didn't answer which I've been wondering about is that of Casey's mom. We know in the movie Split that her dad dies from a heart attack and she goes to live with her abusive and perverted uncle (thankfully we learn in Glass that he's now in prison) but we never learn about what happened to her mom. Neither Split nor Glass tell us about her mom, whether she died or she split, we just know that she's out of the picture for whatever reason.
This Movie is so genius honnestly it was so sad seeing David and Kevins death but they each had their own movie and this was about glass's master plan and in each film accomplished their goals David became a super hero and put glass away the beast showed the world he was real and wanted to kill the unpure and Glass finally showed the World that these People do exsist
To me, it still came off more fo a sequal to split rather than as equal to Unbreakable. This movie in genral is sitll mainly focused on Kevin since Glass is drugged up during most of the first act of the film. But in the end I do get how Glass in someways while always seeing hismelf as the villain was actually the one whos aves all the super beings in the world from the Society.
@@QTCutes Glass was no villain, he was an antihero.
OMG this movie was dumb
I'm not impressed with Dunn dying.
How did he died
Kristina Wells he needed a more sacrificial death like where he saved a lot of people
@@Madanth0ny he should've been the only survivor of the three. I don't think I can watch Unbreakable knowing what happens.
Me neither! Did not like that at all.
How did some normal guy pin David down and drown him?
I think if Glass and the entire Eastrail 177 trilogy, came out on the timeline M. Night Shyamalan originally had planned back in the early 2000s, I think perhaps we as a community would be having a very different opinion and conversation. To me it seems we are and will be “Split” on the ending of this trilogy, simply because of timing. Going into this movie, we all probably had different expectations on the basis that we had gotten used to the formula of comic book movies presented by Marvel and DC alike. If this trilogy had come during an earlier time, perhaps between the years of 2000-2007, before the release Iron Man 1, imagine how that would have changed the reception to ending of this final movie. Imagine how that would change our paradigms on super hero movies in total! I for one would like to imagine how perfect of a transition that would have been, ending with the notion that superheroes do in fact exist in the real world, and then letting the comic book movies of the past 10 years unravel.
Trek this is a fanastic comment man. Im actually working on a video that is going to explain this exact line of thought. This film to me was a cross examination of a culture obsessed with Super Heros. It bucks every convention, and then kinda shits on you... it was really well done. But what can I say, Im a masochist.
*_unfold*_* ...I think you probably meant _unfold... _*_NOT_*_ "unravel"_
Samuel Jackson did say in an interview that the ending was changed due to the status of our society and what's going on in the world and what it would have looked like.
First i thought it was the use of technology and social media but then I saw your comment
If they'd done that they would've cast someone else as Kevin and I can't imagine anyone else in that role. James McAvoy was sooo good and stole the show in both Split and Glass
L. ka Nah. They had the powers all the way. But they were soo weak. Hey, I have flashlight and a gun - beast is dead. Hey, I have water - cape crusader is dead. Glass - he is kinda dead anyway... The only massage you get is that if you want to possess superpowers, you need some OP ones, like Black Adam, Superboy prime, Flash etc. There is no point of being easily countered with all of that nonsense. If they did not have powers in the first place. Well, we see a reality show of three freaks.... And.... The end. It would have been so fun, wouldn’t it?
No, it was all planned by Glass. Do you really think they all died? No. David can be revived by Casey who by the way is a healer which explains why she always fail to kill herself after multiple suicide. Kevin is not dead because his other personalities can takeover the mind before the last nerve ends and be healed by Casey. Mrs. Price is introduced for a reason with Casey by her side. Mr. Glass knew who Casey is and what she can do.
Only Mr. Glass is dead. But not the other two.
You're theory is rather extreme for these movies, but if so, I'd rather have that then the way m. Knight killed off the trilogy. 👍
Dude! I'm still thinking David can be alive because if just the water gets out of his lungs his unbreakable power can revive him. But I never think like that about Casey. hope what you are saying will be true because I really disappointed after this movie
Well Casey does have power to heal people. That's why Kevin's beast is weak when she is around. I heard they wanted Kevin and Casey to be an awkward duo of antihero.
That's all wrong sorry
@@MarcusDinglasan thanks! Your theory just a little cool me down 👌
We start the movie with 3 main roles. The creator(Glass), the created(Overseer) and the victim(The Horde). That is also where is ends. Mom is the creator, son is the created, and the girl is the victim. A Trilogy within a trilogy. Also notice the secret society is a 3 leaf clover(another trilogy reference) which i think represents the average normal person, with these superheros being the rare 4 leaf clovers. Glass says at the end that this was a origin story, and what do most origin stories have in common? Tragedy. Glass wants the supers to awaken, and he sends his video to 3 people. I am left to think that these are the new Trilogy, and this was all to awaken them as much as the world. After all whats more tragic then the loss of a loved one.
3.... just like a triangle..... ILLUMNITACI CONFIRMED
Does the ending mean more superhero’s are gonna start popping up randomly? I thought the broadcast was supposed to bring all of the superhumans to light.
Dig Bick I think that’s the idea.
I think Casey and david's son will carry kevin and Bruce's legacy and psychiatrist will be Mr. Glass's.
Thats my perception
The thought process behind the creative direction of the three films is this, "Humans can attain great things through the power of belief." These superhumans aren't superhumans in the way we think about comic books. They are more grounded in the real world, but they are still capable of doing incredible things. The more a person believes that they are capable, the more they become capable, and the stronger they become. To put it into a loose comparison think of the X-men Character Gladiator. He is incredibly strong and powerful, but the more confidence he exhibits the stronger he becomes.
@@KeyIssues that is the power of the mind ! that is what shyamaln want to show us , the capabilities of the brain !
My ending takeaway was almost parallel to that of The X_Men... for decades they lived in the shadows, but found their way out, and fought for "equal rights"... when Ms. Price grabs Joseph and Casey's hands, and says something to the effect of "This is where we join the universe", it says to me that, in the "Unbreakable" world, more humans with extraordinary powers are going to see the videos, and garner the strength to come out pf the shadows.... just one mans interpretation. ~Amadeus~
I’m glad I was surprised I don’t want a predictable movie good job M night I just left the theater I’m still thinking about the movie ....thats good story telling right there ...we are going to be talking and debating about this movie years down the road and I think people will realize this was a realistic conclusion ...only thing I wish was maybe David Dunn death should have meant something more like a big sacrifice where he saves tons of people like maybe that chemical bomb should have went off they should of had that showdown in the tower other then that I appreciate the movie for what it is great great story
Loved every sec of Glass leading up to the last 10-15 min, felt like a major gut punch to a massive of Unbreakable and Split
all that butthurt in the comments just because the ending wasn't a cliche
The movie is great and worthy of watching, the ending was realistic. Mister Glass manipulated Dunn and Crumb so that they "helped" him (without knowing) to fulfill his true goal, which was showing the world that superhumans existed. With that accomplished all the three of them became immortalized.
The raw truth is that just because Dunn was a hero, the movie didn't owed us a "worthy hero's death"
get real people
edit: plus I think that the movie tried to show how such incredible and amazing creatures can have such a tragic non-heroic death
I agree.
I was disappointed at first but it really is a genius ending.
Yes, because realism is such a crucial factor in a movie where DID can make you bulletproof.
@@darthfenrir7773 breh the DID aspect makes it more believable. It is all about believing and what you can achieve through it. David's death was tragic cuz it seemed pathetic (reminded me of a scene from Superman Returns). I was pretty po'd, but I can warm up to it especially as I saw him as an aging vigilante. In the beginning, there was a lign aluding to David needing a break (which he wouldn't take without force).
@@Brandon.S.Brooker Oh, I wasn't disagreeing. Personally, I'm not particularly interested in these movies. The emphasis on realism just struck me as a bit silly considering the premise of the movie.
PinkGuy VEVO Can’t stop laughing lmao, good one man!
I think this movie symbolism was huge. I though M. Night was trying to say that if people stopped oppressing other people, then those people would find their true gifts. Just my thoughts.
Also, I can't believe anybody would dislike this movie. I thought it was extremely well done the entire way through. Great action, original plot, and some awesome quotes that almost remind me of The Watchmen style dialogue. "This was an origin story."
Just watched the movie tonight....
I loved every direction they came. Gives potential. Gives thought. Gave realism to what people are capable of if you open your mind
Exactly the point. It always has been about believing ever since Unbreakable. It is too bad that it is tragic, but that was the point.
I'm a marvel and dc fan but this.... THIS is a real super hero movie. AMAZING!
One of the best movies Ive ever seen absolutely loved every minute :)
It made it REAL. The fact there’s other people with different gifts in the world
I also really liked it. I know a lot of people arent going to care for the ending, but thats the difficult part of being an M Knight fan. Its either incredible, or complete horse-shit lololollol
You need to watch more movies. so sad.
If Glass proves successful in convincing the audience that they may be superheroes if they truly believe then, it has been an origin story this whole time.
Does anyone else want a new ending Bruce Willis was a great guy
I was expecting the boy from sixth sense to show up and reveal that he was actually a superhero
Basically I wholly concur and appreciate this review+assessment
As to what I feel about "Glass"::
Here's what I came up with as the most succinct but effective way to praise it::
_[[ "Glass" ]] is "Infinity War"......_
_....for the Mind!_
_[[ in other words...._
_"Glass" .....is _*_A FREAKIN MASTERPIECE!!!_*_ ]]_
Personally, I loved this filmed. It tied the other two together while staying true to its themes. The question of 'is this real' was teased just enough to get you to believe one way or another, and without it getting too cliche or over-the-top. It was all believable and that's what makes this work. It's not a Marvel or DC movie, it's how 'superheroes' would be in the real world. Everyone's powers aren't other worldly, but extraordinary enough. And Glass being the orchestrator of all. You had to think he'd known about the secret society for awhile. Given he spent his life searching for superheroes and only found two, he knew something was up. And the twists left and right at the end brought everything full circle - Kevin's father dying on the train, the secret society keeping supers at bay but with a psychiatric approach, and Glass' revelation to the world that we are more than those limits. Beautiful, if you ask me.
First movie from Night Shyamalan I actually enjoyed ! Great !
After reading the comments and seeing a lot of people did not understand how a "puddle" could have killed David when he's supposed to be extremely strong I thought I'd give my viewpoint on it. This is how I saw it and why it makes sense to me.
I think a lot of people are forgetting that water is David Dunn's kryptonite. He had just battled the beast in the large water container, trying to stay alive while simultaneously breaking the container so he can get out of the water. Large bodies of water or deep holes in the ground filled with water (which the puddle was- in an earlier shot you can see how deep the hole is before it fills with water so it wasn't just an inch of water in a puddle) will incapacitate him. It's like Superman being shot with a kryptonite bullet and dying because they didn't get it out in time or in BvS breathing in the kryptonite gas hindered him and weakened him immensely.
That is what happened to David, he was already weak from battling in the water with the beast and breaking the container to get out, essentially using a lot of his weakening strength to get out. Joseph even yells at the police before it's revealed they aren't there to help that his father is weak and needs help. David was extremely weak by the time those two large strong men came over and shoved his face into the deep pothole. Maybe he'll come back but this is a realistic superhero movie and the heroes stay dead. I was bummed too to see him die (Bruce is my favorite actor) too, but to me how he died made sense the need for all three's death made sense.
Kiana Downing people don't like to think
@@TheExecutioner21 That might be it or they wanted it to be evident like other superhero movies, but this is an M Knight movie, it's not going to be flashy and over the top like other superhero movies we're all so used to now. I've talked to a few friends who didn't like how they all went out, and once I explained it the way I perceived it, they understood it better and said it changed the ending for them.
dude I remember when I had to wait 2 weeks before some one to post a explanation to the ending of a movie, not even 24 hours out and already got one up lol
Yeah, I walked out of the theater and posted this close to 1am EST because I know that people are going to be searching for answers. There will be a few follow ups explaining the finer points of the ending and some theories as well, so make sure your subbed :)
This recap of Glass is by far the best. It seems you actually enjoy the series and aren't just recapping for clips. For that I will sub. 👍
You make some really good videos. You make me way more excited about movies like glass that I was before. You earned a sub.
I teared up when The little boy Personality started to beg and said “I like being 9 forever” and Denis “please wash these pants”
Damn not David Dunn, did he have to die? Come on now I’m a bit sad.
Dont be sad... rejoice... for we are now!
Key Issues yeah you’re right we shall rejoice.
James McAvoy was a fucking beast. His acting was insane dude deserves awards n shit
Most of early 90s kids come for David, because Unbreakable is beautiful part of their teenage era. And it's just stupid when he easily erase David from story.
Thats reality. Good people died in shitty ways and it sucks. Thats the point
@Frank Castle ever heard of religion?
@I fucking Hate homosexuals,bts and fortnite because on that time a movie like Unbreakable wasn't popular like today.
Unbreakable came out in 2000. Everyone born in the early 1990's was under 10 years old, not teenagers.
But I agree it was a very lame way to have the hero die.
Saw it yesterday, great movie.
Thanks for posting this video.
Loved the movie and what it represented but also got angered that all of them died even though all of it was not in vain and now more then ever more like them will show up. The organizaion cannot stop them all. The was a origin story.
Literally just watched glass. I was watching unbreakable again last night so it was pretty good sequel, plus I had watched split around the time it came out. I loved it.
Another theory, is that there are really no superhumans and the psychiatrist, (the doctor) and all other members of ‘the society’ also have psychiatric disorders. They have shared psychosis and believes their duty is to hunt down these superhuman. The scene where the doctor goes to the comic shop can be treated as an “evidence” to this theory. And so, the next sequel would be the story of the doctor, or the society. But this is just me
The Village did NOT suck. However, David Dunn dying in a fucking puddle did.
Just saw Glass. I left the theater thinking...Not sure what to think. I give it a 50% out of 100% for now. The ending was not earned was my thought. I will have to wait to see what Night Shyamalan says his motivation was for this movie. If he says he wanted to f*ck with people's expectations or minds, I would say great job. The script did need a bit of a rewrite I thought. Great acting though from the main cast. Overall, a must see if you seen the other two movies. But yes the ending will be polarizing. Night Shyamalan doesn't make it easy for the veiwer to love this movie at it's surface.
It's the orgin story of every superhero... now
How can you say no. When you even said he opened up a new universe. There will be new films about this universe
@@the_ali_a he said he didnt wanted to make new superhero movies
@@chrisxdm3014 Well he's going to have to now since he made a cliffhanger
It sucked....accept it.
I like it very much, super brave end, Shyamalan has his own style for his films, surprised me, I will remember this ending forever. Delivered what he promised and closed the trilogy well in the director's style. James Macvoy is perfect changing the personalities in front of the camera.
WINNER Sometimes people do not need “director style”. Sometimes good movies deserve good endings...
@@kingol4801 I understand but I meant Obviously he didn't the movie focus on delight fans of superheroes movies, and that is his way. And I appreciate that.
The movie was brilliant. This is not a different universe. This is the real world and the real world consequences of superheroes. Many other franchises have tried this idea, but all fail except for this because this film unceremoniously kills off its heroes (Tarantino-esque) and still let's the main character of this film succeed, completing his arc. I do not think this cinematic universe will continue and that's a good thing. I am satisfied and entertained.
Micah Tokayer Nah. It just leaves you in hate for humanity, killing of things they do not understand, and makes you wonder that If I were to have superpowers, I would need to eliminate all the police/military etc services to live a peaceful life after. That is not a good aftermath, nor a moral of the story. You should not root for the serial killers more, than for the stupid humanity...
How is that a good ending?
The beast should have became human due to these kind words, leave all his other personalities and lived with that girl somewhere in the forest.
Cape crusader should have been respected by the police and got a medal for bravery..... for handling the situation...
Glass - well, just let him rot behind the prison cell. Case solved.
The I would be happy. Not humans killing all they do not understand. That is a bad message...
1) Kevin lies about split personalities
2) David Dunn and his son are actually the kidnappers in Glass
3) The psychiatrist is actually keeping them safe, being the child killers they are
4) In Split, the shotgun was filled with rock salt
5) I was high watching this
The problem I have with this “secret organization” is that it’s so random and comes out of nowhere. How did they know about all threes weaknesses? Where did they come from? How did they know Dunn and beast were fighting at the beginning of the movie?
Because they're "secret "society?
Well Shamalan did say this wasn’t your conventional superhero movie
I loved the climax of the movie
When the beatch scream realizing her defeats it was sooooo satisfying !!!!
"we can't have God among us, it just not fair" I was soo triggered
If this series is continued, if think a big plot device would be the broadcast. Maybe those images created a boom in superheros and the big enemy of the film would be this secret society.
David Dunn most likely didn’t died,he was under water for tops 3 mins,he got out and wa able to breathe for another 2 mins or so.The police officer “drowned” David for merely 1-2 mins so most likely David didn’t die at all,but merely in a coma.
Well they are still gonna say he died cause that’s what movies do
Love ur videos man.... keep up the good work...
thanks for the nice comment!
This movie was brilliant and your synopsis is on point 👌🏽👏🏽
Some People: Hurr durr I HATE THE ENDING
Me: But why?
Some People: cuz they all died!
Some people need to know that not every story has a happy ending. While the ending could have been done better, killing them off was alright. But I do have to say that Dunn’s character could have died better.
Yes. Also that society felt like it needed a little more build up than just a scene in Unbreakable where Elijah explains the ancient stories of superheroes.
Because it leavers with moral of the story - humans are evil, they are the treat. And hence, serial killers are presented as protagonists. So, it means two things :: 1) They were too weak. Hence, if you want to use your powers, you should be literary like Superman, being fully immortal, and being able to wipe out the entire humanity in two seconds, being able to to move planets etc. or 2) I need to kill all the police, and the army, and the any remotely resembling treat specimen. And only then I can live freely with my superpowers.
That is the issue. It leaves you with nothing more than a hatred for humanity and the sympathy for the villains. Those, who really should be despised...
No, it was just a really dumb movie in every way.
Regardless of what the critics say, fans of this genre of Shyamalan‘s trilogy will appreciate that he did have patience with these movies. The style of his superhero genre storytelling has been the ingredient in rebooting the superhero films. I am certain Christopher Nolan watched Unbreakable and thought to himself what if we could do that to Batman and give it a realistic vibe. People don’t give Shyamalan the right credit in this genre he truly Gave it a feel like no
Other. Kudos to M. Night. You have come back from your rough patch and I’m sure your fans are rooting for you to succeed in the future.
I wish there was a end credit scene where David’s dead body is shown, but then his hand starts to twitch, or they go to find his body and it’s missing
Lol
They never went back for thebodyso who is to say it didnt disappear. He drown at the bottom of apool for 5 solid minutes and lived from that, seems he coudlr eturn from 30seconds drowning in a puddle!
This isn't a marvel movie, this is reality. David, is probably dead
Luke Cahill I find it hard to believe he drowned in a puddle for 30 seconds and he survived being at the bottom of a pool for 5 minutes, maybe he fake died because he knew that he wouldn’t be able to beat them all at the same time, so he faked so he could escape when no one was around
@@scootersports7042 he had his head under the water for a long time. But maybe he'll come back if another movie is made, but it seems unlikely
What I got from the scene where all three were in the room is that traumatic experience unlocked their abilities.
I just watched this movie,so perfect 👌🏽
Goosebumps already
I finally saw the movie today! I couldn't see it on Friday since I was having all four of my wisdom teeth taken out so I wasn't gonna be all there for the movie. This kept popping up on my recommendations, but I was like no! I don't wanna ruin this one for myself and I'm so happy I waited.
love you're vids keep up the good work
love these comments!
I actually really liked this movie. I’m glad it wasn’t a typical superhero movie where there aren’t real consequences to being superhuman. It made the villains very relatable and human as well as the heroes.
Am I seriously the only person who likes The Village?
Yes.
I don't dislike the ending. I really loved the movie, but the ending did feel odd. I don't think it was necessarily bad but I think there was a better ending out there, Night just didn't find it. Kevin's death was honestly heart-wrenching. And I love how Dennis became a good guy at the end.
ending was weird and dunn barely was important in this movie
What are you talking about, the final showdown would never have happened if he stayed in his cell.
Adventist I definitely caught that, and it made so much sense... I was upset how they died but it was such a cliffhanger... love the overall film and the actual ending
He was important. People complained that we didn't get enough. My gripe was with the ending and how he dies, but I sort of understand it.
He was. Problem is they didn’t give the guy enough to do throughout a big chunk of the movie. They mostly dedicated a heavy amount of screentime to Kevin i feel
The one thing that left me scratching my head was the ending ending... I mean, I can see Glass' mother not understanding how the internet works... but the OTHER two certainly should... it is easier to find out how viral your video feed is getting by sitting at home watching the counter, rather than just sitting in a train station and trying to figure out if they are watching your video or not...
The Village did not ‘suck’
It blew ass.
I enjoyed it even though I already know the ending before watching it
@Roy G Biv dig harder. It was a trash movie with a transparent plot and only was a surprise to children or simpletons. Way to find a way to bring racism into it though.
Wild stand to take. You are wrong. Keep up the nonsense.
I liked the last scene where Eli Stapleton goes to the comic book store to find more superhumans, as said by Elijah " comic books are a form of history that someone somewhere felt or experienced.... "
I loved Unbreakable it was a masterpiece, 10/10, and Split was excellent
8/10 and I just saw Glass and what they are saying is true. Its a rather good film
until the last 15 minutes when Staple reveals her true purpose.
Unfortunately I will mostly remember how Night shit the bed at the end
and ruined the film. If only this one subplot had been excised or if at
least they didnt kill off all three of them. I would have given this
film an 8/10 up until that point but nooooo Night had to get a little to
cute with the story. This was my worst fear realized and reminded me
of The Village. The Village was also a decent film right up until the
end twist which then completely negated all of the good storytelling
which had taken place before. I used to be a defender of Shyamalan but
after this I am done and cannot imagine seeing one of his future movies.
And Its so sad because he was so close to making this a really good
film and satisfying ending to the trilogy. Watching David Dunn being
killed by a Philly swat cop in a most casual manner was like watching
Spider-man die at the end of infinity War.
but Elijah made him immortal. I liked the ending
@Adventist come on dude...
I completely disagree and thought this was a great way to end the trilogy. Mister Glass won and all three main characters died for a very meaningful cause: wake the world up to super humans as well as the secret organization killing them. Humans are evil enough to have an organization such as the one displayed if the circumstances required it, so that concept is not far fetched at all in my opinion. I also don't believe the cop that killed David Dunn was just your average John Doe cop. It's very possible that Staple had some super humans on her pay roll, ones that gave into her demands in the past that she let live, and now work for her. The movie heavily implies that there's potentially millions of super humans walking among humanity in secret, so it's also not far fetched to believe that Staple would "own" some, so to speak.
@@Bumbum_Inspector I also disagree. I think it was an unexpected and good ending for the trilogy. But they shouldn't have killed David this way.
the hero always has to die and resurrected later
“What have you done Elijah” that line sent shivers down my spine 😂
Question for M Night: Do you even test audience screen bro? This movie was great until the last 15 minutes. Let’s make a rule if you promise some epic showdown and then make a plot twist, it should not have way less impact than the showdown you promised. Smh. That sucked, hardcore. Elijah was built up as way smarter than that dumb “we’ve gone viral” ending. He should have been able to expose everything including the group and disable it. Not wait 10+ years to have an epic suicide in the front yard of the asylum he was held prisoner in. That does not sound like the actions of a smart man. And then giving your lead hero the death of a bit part action movie extra, was lame and depressing. Like really? A No face random dude killer did him in. This movie could have been so epicly awesome, but its nothing more than a lame let down now. I feel so bad for sam jack, bruce willis and james mclvoy, who really displayed some flawless acting in this movie only to have it wasted by that stinking tird of an ending.
Not saying that this movie was great, but I'm thankful for every director, who just makes his movie and does not let some shitty, uninterested test audience influence the end product.
Van Howling Testing audiences were needed. The end was bad, and I am fed with explaining it to every comment. If you have movie where you root for some serial killers more, than for humanity, which kills all it does not understand, then you have a serious movie problem. Ending was just painful, and left me with understanding that i should have not paid my money for that piece of nonsense...And this is the first time ever of me being so negative to the film...
Off topic - the Elijah flashback when he was a boy at the carnival was actually a deleted scene in Unbreakable. M. Night said that it didn't fit in the movie, but loved the scene. I'm glad he was able to find a place for it in Glass.
Great "explanation"... just had to point 1 thing out ... we didn't learn that Kevin's father was on the train that Dunn survived in *this* film... we learned it in 'Split"... think back to when Dennis gave Patricia permission to be in the light, when she went to get flowers and lay at the train doors opening... that was the moment (at least for ME), that I knew Kevin's Dad had died on the same fateful crash that Dunn survived... I KNOW I wasn't the only one that caught that, right?!? ~Amadeus~
Yeah that is why it is the first "twist". The true revelations come from the secret society and Elijah's plan.
Me and my GF speculated on what the twists would be and we almost got them all right :D we predicted that everyone will die, we predicted that there is some shady stuff with the Staple either she is a super herself or some secret government agent (they kinda spoiled it in the trailer with the cafe scene) at first I thought that maybe she is mind controller and made others move at the same time in that trailer scene. The twist that we didn't predict was the Kevins father's death on the train. Overall I liked this kind of ending, Dunn's death was very Game of Thrones and close to reality like the death of Big Daddy in Kickass. Also from the moment Staple found the tower plans that Elijah left her, I knew they are not going there actually. Mr. Glass would never risk them knowing the real location just to gloat.
Elijah is punched in the chest by the Beast, David is drowned in a puddle of water by a cop, and the Beast gets sniped by a member of the secret society after turning back into Kevin.
I'm bummed about Dunn

Theendman love the sarcasm lol
There are many channels doing the same review of ending, but still appreciate your view
I loved the first half and hated the second half Man
I know M said that this was the final ending to the trilogy, but I still feel that there could be one more. Like why would he introduce this organization even if it was to answer some plot lines? The therapist said that she was planning to go to another city to stop even more extraordinary people so why not start something new from there? I know they pretty much wrapped things up with Mr. Glass ruining the secret organizations plans by sharing the security camera viewings with the world but I still think there could be more to this. Even if this really is the end then I'm satisfied that they at least ended the movie with Mr. Glass beating the secret organization.
I I am done and cannot imagine seeing one of his future movies. So much potential, wasted.
Eh. It wasn't that bad of a film. Sure Dunn's death kinda sucked and the twists at the end were getting a little chaoitic but I thought it was quite enjoyable.
@@Brandon.S.Brooker i expected more from this movie than the avengers ones. How do you think i feel
@@chrisxdm3014 This isn't an explosive crossover film. It is a superhero thriller. However, I know what you mean by saying that you expected MORE. The film wasn't necessary for the story. It is entertaining, but doesn't redefine the last two films.
I literally just watched the movie. This video just so happened to pop up on my recommends.
Okay, so only the black man wasn't truly exceptional, just "really smart". There have been a lot of people who have been "really smart", but NO ONE has been literally bullet proof and possessing the strength of ten or more large men. This is where the movie's story stumbled. In a way, Mr. Glass was little more than a token "super human". The secret society wasn't ever truly concerned with him because he was just a gifted genius, not a superhuman. Being a telepath would've been the perfect super ability for Mr. Glass, and would've given the story more cohesion.
Mr Glass' rival was Staple. They each challenged each other in intelligence, but he ultimately won.
Still, my point is he wasn't truly exceptional, or possessing any real super human capabilities, just "really smart". Did she lock him away in her asylum because she was afraid he was smarter than her? No. The whole point of any of the three being there was because they were SUPPOSED to have truly superhuman abilities, and she was tasked with getting them to believe that they didn't. Mr. Glass was a convicted, "really smart", mass murderer. He should have been in a super max prison awaiting execution, not locked away in an asylum for people with above human abilities. The story just doesn't click when it comes to Mr. Glass because SOMEONE didn't want to do the most logical thing and give him a true super human ability.
@@riboflavinfolate3964 Being that intelligent is extremely unusual. This is a guy who is 5 steps ahead and who was able to outsmart an entire facility of people whose job it was to keep him locked inside. He even managed to trick them into believing that the procedure that they planned to use to dumb him down worked. The amount smarter Glass is compared to the average person is about on par with how strong David and the Beast are compared to the average person.
@@jackrogers5712 I see your point, truly I do. But my point is in the concept of attempting to realize superhumans in the most realistic of lights, to just make one of them "really smart" is subpar story telling. In reality there are people with IQ's meeting or exceeding 180 points or more (i.e. above genius level). We can see this, measure this, document it. In other words, it is REAL. I challenge you to show me someone who has been documented to possess the strength of ten or more men, show imperviousness to metal projectiles fired at super sonic speeds (bullets). You won't find anyone who meets this criteria. Even Mr. Glass's medical condition is a real medical condition. Why try so hard to keep Mr. Glass locked in the realm of realism, while the other two characters were given free reign in the realm of the UNreal? Just doesn't make sense on a story telling front, when making him a telepath of some kind was such a no-brainer.
@@riboflavinfolate3964
The Doctor had no true idea of Mr.Glasses intellect. She was looking at MRI's of him taken before she got there. She even says Mr.Glass was already there when she was
brought into town. In effect, Mr.Glass was orders of intelligence higher than the Doctor. He was so far out there, he was able to anticipate her moves and counter her
attempts to contain him and lessen his intellect. He was able to come up with plans and contingencies that would get everyone to dance at his toon.
I liked it but I understand why people don’t enjoy it. The ending is definitely divisive and underwhelming for some. Even though I didn’t expect the exact ending I knew something was up, especially with Elijah and how he wanted to go through the basement. I just kept thinking he’s not showing all his cards at this moment. I kept having to remind myself that he was doing everything he did for a specific reason.
All in all, I enjoyed it, but it was not what I expected.
I’m glad that it seems that M. Night is back to being a great writer and director.

The ending is Genius!!! M Night can take this in so many directions!!! Omg... The Characters stories could inspire more shuttered Superhilumans to make themselves known. David's son, while not taking after his father in the power department. Prehaps has offspring who do. Ive got other theories but ill wait. Omg i can not wait to seevthis film. Ty M. Night. Love you.
What a great ending! People will appreciate this much later, I believe.
I hope.
Just like Unbreakable. Not many lied that movie at first viewing.
Nah. Just makes you think a few things things
- humanity is evil, and we need to exterminate that. Like the Beast deserved becoming regular human, and being able to live happily with that girl.... Cape crusader should have been respected as a police man etc... And go to the psychiatrist, treat your goddamn water phobia and become really immortal......
Also, if you were to have super powers, two options - be OP with powers of Superman but no weaknesses.... Or kill all the military, and the army, and the police. Or any one related. Just to live life without the fear of humanity ever after....
That is why the ending is stupid. Too realistic, making you think that they were too easy to break.... So much “kryptonite” plot convenience, where they have each their own weaknesses that an average human can kill them.....
Or that you root for the serial killers more than you root for the humanity....
