Glass Movie Review


Glass Movie Review

A Decent Superhero Film

So, I saw Glass last night, and this M. Night Shyamalan film is pretty good. When I saw it with one of my friends, I can honestly say we both enjoyed the movie.
Glass follows three perspectives, the first is David Dunn (Bruce Willis) a superhuman, as he fights against Kevin (James McAvoy) and Mr. Glass (Samuel L. Jackson) as the three of them come face to face in a mental facility.
If you've been with my blog here for a while you may remember that Split is one of the first films which I reviewed on here. I'm happy to see Anya Taylor-Joy return as Casey in this film. If you don't know who Anya Taylor-Joy is then you may remember her from The Witch or Thoroughbreds. James McAvoy is just an incredible actor and he is so underutilized, it's crazy the talent that man has, he really needs to be cast in more films. Bruce Willis is great as he always is, and he delivers a fun performance yet again. Samuel L. Jackson played a more silent and cunning character, and it's different from his usual persona, so it was nice seeing him do something different.
Glass is a different kind of superhero film. It's not like your traditional DC or Marvel film. It stands on its own two legs and M. Night Shyamalan did a good job.
Speaking of M. Night Shyamalan, I should say he's been doing really great the past couple of years and it almost seems his bad films were just a hiccup. I felt like Glass was a bit of a passion project for him, and yes you do get the signature Shyamalan twist at the end of the film, and boy is a good one!
I don't have to many complaints with the film except I would have liked a little more character interaction than we got, and the movie's length just doesn't sit quite right. Other than that, I don't have any real complaints.
Glass is a fun film, and the ending is just amazing. I could see them possibly continuing this film series, but if they just decide to end it here, then I'm happy M. Night Shyamalan gave us the ending he did with Glass.



final score: 3.5/5

Dora and the Lost City of Gold Movie Review

Dora and the Lost City of Gold Movie Review This Was My Dad's Idea Well... I went and saw Dora and the Lost City of Gold today with my dad, and... the film was a lot funnier than it has any right to be. Dora and the Lost City of Gold is a live action adaptation of the Dora tv show on Nickelodeon. Dora, now a teenager, is sent to the City to live with her cousin, Diego, while her parents go exploring for a lost City. When her parents go missing, Dora and her new friends go and search for her parents. I can't believe I'm going to say this, but the movie wasn't half bad. There is a ton of tongue and cheek humor. There is some cringe to the Dora and the Lost City of Gold too, but remember, this is a movie made for kids. As a kids film, it does a fine job. The acting was fine, and for a kids film, everyone did alright. Isabela Moner, who played Dora, did a good job portraying the character from what I remember about the show when I was very young. What surprised...

Norsemen Netflix Show Review So Far

Norsemen Netflix Show Review So Far The funniest show I've seen in years I've been watching a show on Netflix called Norsemen, and I swear this is the funniest show I've seen in years! I can't understate how funny this show can really be, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say about 90% of the jokes land. Norsemen starts off in 790 AD, and follows a few Vikings and their slaves. The show goes through their lives and their trials, but it's done with a comedic spin. If you haven't yet, watch the trailer above to get a better idea of the show. I will say this, this show reminds me of Monty Python ! Some of the jokes Norsemen  are gut busting, and will almost have you rolling on the floor laughing. In an age of bad comedies this show is gold.  I just started watching season 2 the other day, and I just want to keep watching. The episodes are about a half hour long each, and it's the perfect time frame to get the story across. I wouldn't c...
