Glass 2019 ★★

Glass is an ambitious mess, a film that tries so hard to be profound it trips over its own cape. It's like watching a magic show where the magician forgets his tricks halfway through and decides to lecture you on morality instead. And for that, it earns a bemused 2 out of 5 stars from me. So, if you're in the mood for a movie that's equal parts confusing, amusing, and bemusing—congratulations, you've found your Friday night.
