Split

Rating: Null/10 (30 May 2017)

James McAvoy gives a great performance or performances as a person with DID, a person harboring multiple personalities. Each personality tries to hold on for the light to appear. McAvoy delivers each differing personality with precision and is believable. He delivers the personalities with ease and we see how much talent he possesses.
Aside from James McAvoy's great performance the film was average. Not too bad yet not too great and certainly not memorable. As a thriller it serves its purpose as the audience is glued in to see how and if the last girl will escape and the emergence of the last personality. A twist or some big mystery that was revealed would have made it more interesting since it was close to two hours and it had enough time for this.
The link to the film Unbreakable was subtle and well done as we see Bruce Willis's character refer to his nemesis Mr Glass and the link between Glass and The Horde. Speculations are there will be a sequel to the film but if they are looking for a franchise I do not know how much currency Split has to carry or lay any interesting groundwork for future comic book films.
