While falling short of the desired celebration that love conquers all, 'The Glass Room' still has some interesting plot points that may fare better in the novel it's based off. Given more time and a stronger, more coherent script, there is enough here to suggest that this is a story worth telling, but this isn't it. Stunning yet mostly soulless, 'The Glass Room' might leave audiences asking for more, but not because what was initially served was so tasty in the first place. - Joel Kalkopf
