It is safe to say that M. Night has safely redeemed himself after a rather spotty period in the 00’s. Glass is not a perfect movie, but it is a consistently entertaining one. This is not a showcase for Samuel L. Jackson’s acting chops and sinister sassiness, but we do get some. Shyamalan‘s dialogue is a little wobbly but he writes a good story and he creates great characters. He just needs to work on motivations. Let’s hope that with the very open-ended close of Glass we see a few more tries at stories with a better balance of elements.
