My Glass review

My Glass review

Intro: Why does Split have to be connected to Unbreakable

Glass: This movie takes place nineteen years after the events in Unbreakable and David Dunn has been using his abilities to stop crime. One day he learns that Kevin Crumb/ The Horde has abducted more girls so Kevin heads out to free them. Meanwhile Dr. Ellie Staple captures both David and Kevin. and sent them to her hospital to convince them that they're normal. That got ruin when someone from David's past shows up and free Kevin. So David has to stop both of them before things get out of hand. 

Out of all the containment films I've seen this is the weakest one! Part of the reason why is because this movie tried to tell two different stories and the director didn't do a good job at balancing the two stories. This movie being a sequel to Split and Unbreakable is a issue because both of those movies are different. The fact that this movie happen nineteen years after Unbreakable bugs me because you mean to tell me that there are no other super humans? I wish this movie didn't have a small world, you'll see what I mean when you watch this movie. I'm surprise that the side character don't have a strong reaction to the climax considering when happen in the climax. 

David Dunn is a blank slate for the most part, after he get captured the character might as well be sleep walking.   

Kavin Crumb/The Horde is another problem I have with the movie because he's the stand out character he gets a lot of screen time showing off his mini personalities. Doing this serves no purpose beyond showing us how good the actor playing this character can pull this off. 

Eijah Price/Mr.Glass fully embrace his villain role in this movie, I impress with how he's able to outsmart everyone. 

Casey Cooke ( one of the Horde's victims.) try's to help him. Am I the only one who finds it off - putting that she forgives him? I'm not saying that she shouldn't however we don't know how she feel about what he put here through. Also it seem like she has stockholm syndrome. ( I could be wrong about that.) 

Dr. Ellie Staple is also bland. I would like to know how she feels about doing this job because we learn that ( My editor censor me from spoiling this movie.) idea. Her trying to convinces Kevin, David and Eijah that there not superhuman wasn't good. Because A you have to do more then talk a great game and B they are superhuman! she would treat them like there everybody else if that was the case. Also how can nineteen years pass and no other super humans exist, how long has she known about these three men?    

I appreciate this movie for trying to make up for the ending in Unbreakable. Despite this movie having slow pacing the movie doesn't feel boring. (Well that can be subjective.) I like the social commentary of there can be no GOD among men. All in All this wasn't a good follow up to Unbreakable. I would recommend this if you're curious to see what happen to these characters?
