Haven't seen it, but the way they're playing up the "superhero" aspect in the trailers turns me off. That was a theme of "Unbreakable" that was just there for people to figure out while watching it. It was subtle. The promotion for this flick is just a little too on the nose, and it comes across really forced and lame. A bit of a red flag for me.
What was subtle about it? They literally showed the dude owning a comic art gallery.
There was nothing subtle about it at all
The problem with Glass is that M. Night is just a bad director

The strength of Glass is Jackson and McAvoy
Bruce Willis is garbage as expected. Don't think he has had a good performance since the 90's
if you wanna see a couple bits and pieces of good acting mixed together with shit then go see this movie
It's something I care deeply about that has been destroyed by power-hungry opportunists. It's an assault on the world of art itself, and the most influential medium of our time in art.@Madmick seems to be on a mission to trash professional critics every chance he gets. Even more than the average moviegoer.
Did a roaming gang of critics vandalize your house or something?
It was not promoted as a superhero movie. The superhero aspect in the movie wasn't blatant. Yes, Glass was a comic geek. He wasn't played up as some literal super villain, facing off against a superhero. He was just some fragile dude who was into comics.
This movie is literally Glass recruiting another villain to take on the superhero. Mcavoy is being played up as some kind of supernatural being. It's practically being promoted as a Marvel movie.
Yes, "Unbreakable" was far more subtle. You can watch that movie and not even have to make the comic book superhero connection, for it to work.
The worst is food critics. They ruin people's livelihood.It's something I care deeply about that has been destroyed by power-hungry opportunists. It's an assault on the world of art itself, and the most influential medium of our time in art.
Yes, I am fiercely defensive of art. It is my church. It is sacred to me.

It seems like the only movies that review well these days are Marvel movies, Star Wars, Oscar bait, or movies with social justice themes. All of these types of movies will get scores of at least 85% regardless of the actual quality of the movie. It's a real shit show.
I enjoyed Glass. It wasn't as good as Unbreakable or Split, but still very enjoyable. I wasn't expecting it to end the way it did, but I wouldn't go as far to say I disliked how it ended. It was kind of ballsy actually.
I personally enjoyed it saw it in the theater in arden area.I’m going to see it regardless of what other people say about it. I find that people are usually too critical of movies that have high expectations. I bet it’s good.
