SPLIT is a film that is famous for the sake of being famous

Rating: 6/10 (12 August 2017)

PROS: The ending, which is the most controversial part, was still my favorite part. For some reason it left me wanting to see more, which is a very good quality to have. Through the duration of the film I was just sitting there, but the end was when I was truly at the edge of my seat. The acting was very varied throughout the film. This was aggravating because some actors did a really good job in one scene, then a crappy job in the next. There was no one actor that carried the film, and no one actor that ruined it. To sidetrack a little bit, the tension that was made in this film was very average...
CONS: The part that was so upsetting was the character development. This movie had one job, and that was to make the characters have depth. I was just so ticked off throughout the film watching blank actors walk across the screen. This includes the main character, the one with multiple personalities, who was constructed with so little finesse. None of his personalities had depth nor were they explained enough for an ENTIRE film to be carried on them. Another thing was how unethically they portrayed this mental health disorder. It wasn't handled properly, and they put incorrect sciences in that had no relevance to the film whatsoever. This led to numerous amounts of plot holes. Where was never fully answered, who was never fully answered, and why was never fully answered; these are possibly the three most important questions that should probably be answered throughout the film, and nothing was answered. The final thing was how utterly pathetic the characters relationships were portrayed through the movie. It was just so incomprehensible and unrealized that I was sitting there filling in the holes of the movie during the movie. This ended up distracting me from how the film was overall, it was an OK movie.
