As Evangelista sees it, the set-up of having the main characters being treated at a hospital by a doctor trying to convince them they don’t have superpowers would have worked if this were the first movie in a series, but we already know Dr. Ellie Staple is wrong.
Chris Evangelista from Slashfilm gave Glass a 5 out of 10 score, saying that although the first 10-15 minutes are “thrilling,” that momentum is then derailed.
Even worse, Glass “severely tarnishes the legacy of Unbreakable.”
Glass also is apparently less of an Unbreakable sequel and more of a Split follow-up, which explains why Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson don’t have as much to do.
