A Suspense Thriller With Bright Spots & A Great Performance

Rating: 5/10 (2 June 2017)

I watched Split this past weekend after missing it's theatrical run.
Intrigued by the fast paced heart pounding trailer I was eager for the suspense master of our day's take on mental disorder and captivity.
Split stars out with a bang and we are slowly introduced to the many personalities of our main character who suffers from multiple personality disorder. James McAvoy is amazing in split without doubt as he takes us through the many different representatives occupying this troubled soul. One scene in particular will stay with you as it is suspenseful as much as it is hysterical! There are disturbing and unfortunately drawn out flashbacks that get in the way of the suspense created by the captives situation. As usual M.Knight gives the viewer the thrilling finale with a satisfying twist for those familiar with his previous films and optimistically something to look forward to for a follow up. This is one of my favorite genres and I realize it is not easy to shock and thrill audiences that's why I will keep coming back and am glad M.Knight Is still at it.
