Glass: The Only Time We Get to See Black Crack?
20 years later we got the completion to a trilogy we never knew we needed. Glass picks up where Split left off. We learn what happened to David Dunn after he accepted he was a superhero- he has spent all these years seeking vigilante justice with his son by his side. Determined to catch the beast, he embarks on a mission to catch him and save his new hostages. In the midst of their battle he gets captured by Ellie Staple, a doctor who wants to work with them and the infamous Mr. Glass to cure them of the delusion of them being superheroes.
This movie kept me on the edge of my seat pretty much the whole time. Not much about it was predictable, especially the ending. *Spoiler alert* I certainly did not expect all of them to die. I was so angry for a good two minutes. But then I realized it had to happen in order for Mr. Glass to win. And what’s better than a black man coming out on top?
My anger really came from the fact that we waited almost twenty years for this conclusion to have David Dunn die. I was so devastated. Of course the beast had to die. Mr. Glass? I guess. But David Dunn Lawd?! I felt like Jada Pinkett Smith when she fell out in Kingdom Come!
I also was really disappointed in the final showdown. I was so hyped up for this big battle to take place on Philly's tallest building and wow... it takes place in a parking lot. It’s like wanting Popeyes but you get a chicken box instead. The chicken is still really good but it’s not the taste you had in mind. You get me?
Overall I really enjoyed Glass. I know this movie is supposed to be a trilogy but I would love to see how the secret society falls after the world finds out about superheroes.
