Glass (Cristal)

James McAvoy delivers a tour-de-force performance in M. Night Shyamalan's "Glass," seamlessly embodying the complex and multifaceted character(s) of Kevin Wendell Crumb and his 23 distinct personalities. McAvoy's portrayal is nothing short of mesmerizing as he effortlessly transitions between the vastly different identities, each with their own distinct mannerisms, voices, and physical presences. From the meticulous and controlling Dennis, to the innocent and childlike Hedwig, to the sophisticated and compassionate Patricia, McAvoy breathes life into each personality with an impressive range that captivates the audience. His performance as The Beast, the final and most terrifying alter, is particularly gripping, showcasing McAvoy's ability to convey raw power and primal ferocity. The nuance and depth McAvoy brings to the role elevate the film, grounding the fantastical elements with a human core that is both relatable and deeply unsettling. His interactions with co-stars Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson add layers of complexity, as McAvoy's character becomes both the protagonist and antagonist of his own narrative. McAvoy's dedication to the role is evident in every scene, making his performance as Kevin and his multitude of alters a standout highlight of "Glass" and a testament to his talent as an actor.

Bruce Willis reprises his role as David Dunn, also known as The Overseer, in M. Night Shyamalan's "Glass," with a performance that exudes a stoic strength and a subtle complexity. Willis's portrayal of the everyman-turned-superhero is grounded and understated, providing a compelling counterbalance to the more flamboyant characters in the film. He embodies David Dunn's quiet resilience and moral fortitude, while also hinting at the character's internal conflict as he grapples with the reality of his abilities and the burden of his responsibility. Willis's nuanced acting, particularly in his interactions with Samuel L. Jackson's Mr. Glass and James McAvoy's The Horde, underscores the film's exploration of what it means to be a hero in a world that is both cynical and in need of belief. His performance is a testament to his ability to convey depth with minimal dialogue, allowing the audience to connect with David Dunn's silent determination and inherent decency.

Samuel L. Jackson delivers a complex and nuanced performance as Elijah Price, also known as Mr. Glass, in M. Night Shyamalan's "Glass," the culmination of a trilogy that includes "Unbreakable" and "Split." Jackson's portrayal of the fragile-boned, intellectual supervillain is both chilling and captivating, as he expertly balances the character's physical frailty with a powerful, calculating mind. His ability to convey the depth of Elijah's isolation, stemming from his rare condition and his unyielding belief in the existence of real-life superheroes and villains, adds layers of empathy to a character that could have easily slipped into caricature. Jackson's Mr. Glass is the mastermind orchestrating the events of the film, and the actor's commanding presence is felt in every scene, even when he is physically restrained or silenced. His performance is a testament to his range as an actor, showcasing his ability to bring to life a character that is both sinister and oddly sympathetic, making Mr. Glass one of his most memorable and iconic roles.

Anya Taylor-Joy delivers a compelling performance as Casey Cooke in M. Night Shyamalan's "Glass," the concluding chapter of the Eastrail 177 trilogy. As the sole survivor of the deranged Kevin Wendell Crumb's (James McAvoy) abduction in "Split," Taylor-Joy's Casey transitions from victim to a young woman grappling with her traumatic past while finding an unexpected connection with her former captor. Her nuanced portrayal captures the fragility and strength of Casey, showcasing her resilience and intuitive understanding of human psychology. Taylor-Joy brings depth to the character, navigating the complex dynamics between Crumb's multiple personalities with empathy and intelligence. Her performance is a standout, as she holds her own against McAvoy's tour-de-force, contributing to the film's exploration of the intricate nature of heroism and the spectrum of human vulnerability. Anya Taylor-Joy's subtle expressions and emotional range convey the silent battles within Casey, making her an integral part of the film's psychological tapestry.
