Shyamalan is Back

Rating: 7/10 (1 June 2017)

Personally I am not really a fan but I watched Sixth Sense, Signs and Unbreakable. Those three were really good. After making three good films in a row some said the Village was horrible but I did not see it for myself. I watched Happening and Airbender. Happening was a strange horror film and quite interesting but Airbender was where he made an unforgivable mistake. Mentioning Shyamalan to those who loved the animated show is like a taboo. I gave Shyamalan one more chance with After Earth but it was silly and devoid of reason. After Earth was still a unique film if you come to think about it. When it came to Shyamalan it was interesting to watch a potentially good director spiral out into a messy movie maker.
Split sounded like a good concept but my expectations were low before I began. Split got into it straightaway, no bullshit and it keeps you guessing at every turn. As the movie progresses your expectations increase and it had a good payoff in the end. But don't you see in a way this movie speaks about Shyamalan directing ability split between the bad director and good director. The good director is back people and hopefully the bad director will not come back in control again.
