About
You’ll likely enjoy Glass if you like cerebral superhero intrigue and psychological tension from Unbreakable and Split; Not for you if you want nonstop action, broad Marvel/DC-style battles, or a more straightforward payoff.
Pros: big character performances; tense atmosphere; franchise connection | Cons: uneven pacing; unsatisfying ending; confusing story focus
