Hopefully the reviews get better but damn I had high hopes.
Glass (2019)
It seems like it's going to be more divided than negative, and there will be plenty of discussion over why it worked for some but didn't for others.
Looks like one of the biggest issues being brought up is the fact the film
People calling it the worst movie ever made always make me laugh. Hate how reviewing has basically turned to 0/10 or 10/10 online now. They just want retweets and likes for their "funny" review and not an honest opinion
ignore reviews watch it if you want
Shyamalan is definitely critic proof for me.£
Oh I bet I'll like the movie and Im still very hyped for it, just so annoyed with people
But on the other hand... it's also weird to see how people are shocked that this is supposedly not very good. It. Is. Shyamalan. The Happening, After Earth, Last Airbender, even Lady in the Water - all these are so frustratingly, mysteriously bad. Like, it's impossible to understand what The Happening is, when you look at it. Lady in the Water is soooo pretentious and embarrassing because of this. These are his major, more recent works. I loved the Unbreakable (haven't seen it in years, to be honest), and I really liked the atmosphere Signs created - but that's it.
I'm not sure what goes on in Shyamalan's mind, I mean he clearly just does what he wants to do, which is great! Really. He comes up with ideas and he makes them happen. But for audiences and critics alike, his style is mostly totally out of this world, and not in a good way. People can't connect to them at all - once again: most of the time.
So I understand Split may be an enjoyable film, and etc etc but it's weird for me to see people STILL having faith in the guy. Which is not a bad thing! But for me it's weird.

Maybe because we like his films?£
Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs, The Village, and Split are all good to great films (haven't seen The Visit). Dude has some awful stinkers, but a good half of his work is relatively solid.
