Nice Thriller to Kick off 2017!

Rating: 8/10 (14 April 2017)

I was very pleased with Split, a nice thriller that combined elements of both horror and mystery to pull a very great movie! I loved the idea of having someone with split personalities in a thriller, something I don't think I've seen before so it was a nice and fresh idea for a movie. I've always been a fan of M. Night Shyamalan's work, so I went into this movie knowing that I would probably like it. I think that James McAvoy was perfectly cast and also rising star Anya Taylor Joy. Anya Taylor Joy's character was a very interesting girl and I really liked her! I like her character development and flashbacks. She was a strong fighter throughout the film and I enjoyed that. I was a huge fan of the personality named Hedwig, I thought he was hilarious. I was afraid at first that I would get lost and confused with all of the personalities, but thankfully the film elaborates on several of them so no confusion happened. Whenever the Beast personality arrived near the end, I was completely hooked on what was going to happen. The ending left the door wide open for a sequel with the revealing of Bruce Willis as David Dunn from Unbreakable, and finishing with a twist. Hope to see a sequel sometime in the future!
