Review of Split (2017) by Moviemitch96 — 12 Feb 2017

Finally got around to checking this out and I'd say that this definitely a decent little comeback from M. Night Shyamalan. While it might not be enough to re-win over all of his passionate haters completely, I'd say it's got enough good going for it for the most part anyway, from James McAvoy's dynamic performance to the overall story and premise that for once isn't wasted potential (which is quite unusual for a Shyamalan film nowadays.

) Overall, it's certainly no "The Sixth Sense", nor is it absolutely mind-blowing by any means, but McAvoy's committed performance and the story and it's often-enough intriguing premise keeps this well-above most of Shyamalan's past efforts, which I think says enough.

I'd say it's also worth noting that the surprise cameo at the very end also manages to make things a little more interesting as well.
