I was completely onboard with Glass for most of the movie, but then it decided to go off the rails. I was invested in the characters and was willing to overlook the clunky exposition and monologuing--until the finale. I feel like M. Night Shyamalan was so determined to surprise the audience that he forgot how to satisfactorily finish a story. To be honest, Glass left me feeling half empty about the whole trilogy.

Left me feeling half empty
Three of the pom pom girls were hotties
One not so much and hint: none of them is Asiatic almond eyed.
Anyone it is bruce Willis and for my well informed security trained eyes he is IT.
Watch this one.
Works, generally
GLASS is an unusual beast, a sequel to two separate movies: UNBREAKABLE and SPLIT. I love the former movie and enjoyed the latter, despite thinking it a bit gimmicky; this film ties together both plots into a largely satisfying whole while at the same time building on the shared universe's superhero mythos. This is one of the director's better movies of recent years, although it's still not perfect: it goes on a bit too long, and the double-twist ending made me think "so what?" rather than being genuinely impressed by it all. However, the performances are all strong - Willis dependable, Jackson understated for a change, McAvoy a showstopper - and the quiet, non-showy direction works a treat.
