Mr. Shyamalan concludes his saga of unusual heroes of his earlier movies, 'UNBREAKABLE' and 'SPLIT', by combining them into a single movie named 'GLASS'. The opposites collide here as the hero Bruce Willis from 'UNBREAKABLE', who has had an unusual luck of being a superhero, tries to help the victims of beastly personality of the hero in the movie 'SPLIT' . Mr. SPLIT (that is the name I choose for him) has the unusual habit of kidnapping young girls and keeping them captive in his hideout. In fact the ending of 'SPLIT' is quite repulsive compared to M. Night's other movies!!
I do not know if there are people like the protagonist in SPLIT who keeps changing personalities that range from pleasant Kevin to a muscular and beastly one whose name I forget. Multiple Personality Disorder is a known psychiatric disease but I have not come across anyone who changes personalities like the way they show in the movies !! We are shown this beastly personality being treated with flashes of blinding lights that seem to stop him from hurting the staff of the mental institute.
The movie begins with all three being moved into a treatment center. The third is the black villain of UNBREAKABLE who sells comics but is chronically in the wheel chair because of his aches and pains that surface at the slightest touch. He seems to control the fate of the other two at least for a little while.
I will not spoil the ending but I believe all three die unless M. Night decides to bring them back to life because that is what happens in comic books.
