"Split" was a dogshit movie 2
#24032281 - 01/23/17 12:28 AM (7 years, 7 days ago) |

The whole movie revolves around 3 trapped girls trying to get out of an undergrounder bunker type thing while this guy is changing into all these different people. Except there is no suspense, tension or gravitas to any of it. SPOILER ALERT: Only three people get killed.
The movie is incredibly slow and boring, not interesting in the least. It's the first time in a while I noticed how, if there had been no "suspense background music" it would be perfect for putting people to sleep. The only good part is when the dude forces the chicks to take their clothes off because one of the girls is thick as fuck and looks really nice in panties and a bra.
And all the anticipation for when he turns into a beast is incredibly dissapointing as the main antagonist looks exactly the same as before when he turns into this "beast" except he's got more veins on his body. Are you shitting me? We waited an hour and a half to see this fucking beast thing and it's just the dude with more veins on his body???
M. Night Shamalan can not make a good movie.. he is incapable of it. Why do studios keep giving him money? He tries the same gimmick every time and always fails.
Oh and SPOILER ALERT: Bruce Willis is in the movie for the last 10 seconds, to connect this movie to a movie that came out literally 17 years ago. And it's not even a connection that makes sense.. it is so half assed and corny.

Suspense and thriller is his thing, if you were expecting a gore fest you were mislead.
He also usually does something ironic and totally plausible to justify the events and highlight humans need to transfix some greater meaning to situations.

Split was an objectively fantastic movie and the only reason people are agreeing with OP's wrong opinion is if they never saw it. Seriously guys Split was fantastic, don't listen to OP & check it out for yourself. Well-written, well-filmed, etc.

The only reason I would see it would be to have a good laugh with some friends at how shitty it is. and I know for a fact it is shitty because every single one of the 10 movies he did before Split were shittyy shitty shitty

I'm not in touch enough with the movie biz to know much about the director dude, but Split was definitely good shit. You guys can be prejudice against the dude who made it but that doesn't change the fact it's a good movie

I'll tell you about the director. first off he won't stop talking about how awesome 6th sense is. like whenever studios have reservations about any of his storytelling choices he tells them to back off because hes m night shyamlon and he fucking wrote and directed the 6th sense motherfuckers! and when he was asked what he thinks about the bad reviews hes received on movies like the last airbender, he responded saying that critics simply "don't get" his european sensibility..

Some people with mental disorders freak me out. Creepy shit.
I still wanna see Split, despite the negative comments in this thread. Its a psychological thriller i could enjoy.

No, he is playing his character from another Shymalan movie "Unbreakable", which is a pretty lesser known film of his so it makes even less sense to connect it to this one.

saw the previews in the theaters and thought it looked really shitty.
I too, would not waste my time on that stupid movie.
I give it .00234 starts out of ten.
That's being generous.
IN fact, that might be too generous.

I thought the village was a great movie... that is about as far as i go with his stuff. I just don't watch a lot of movies.
Just seemed like people didn't know he doesn't do horror gore. Go watch any of the million movies that cover that if you like. This just wasn't it, and people should not have thought that from the previews.
I am not going to watch the movie, just airing that out.

I didn't realize it was a Shymalan movie and I like the actor James Mcavoy so I was hoping it would be good. My friends and I decided to see this movie over the Vin Diesel XXX sequel. Should have seen XXX.. dissapointing!

The only thing i want to see in xxx was the skiing in the jungle scene. I watched most of that footage last year sometime, just want to see how they cut and edited it.
If i want to watch vinny it would be in the Riddick/ pitch black series.

Signs sixth sense and unbreakable were great films. The rest of his shit is just that.
I think "what's happenin" with that guy from new kids on the block was better than people give credit for, but the ending to it ruined it. Had a lot of great build up and just didn't really go anywhere, which is a common theme of his.
His movies do a good job (usually) at building suspense and the ending doesn't live up.

M Night has always been a shit director. People think of sixth sense as a great film but if you rewatch it even once you see what a joke of a stretch the twist in the movie is. We as the audience are supposed to accept that bruce willis went like 6 months to a year without realizing that he was dead? gimme a break. No one could see or speak to him for all that time and he still didn't clue in. Even when he went on what he thought was a date with his grieving wife, who could not communicate with him, he still didn't get it. like cmon, the whole movie is just one giant trick on the audience that completely falls apart on a second viewing.

Do you think they'll make another split movie with bruce willis's character from unbreakable? Or was that just a little extra M. Night threw in at the end, and a conformation the movie took place in the 'unbreakable universe', so to speak?

I doubt Shymalan is capable of making that movie... it seems to be out of his league. It would be cool if he proved me wrong.. I think he just thought it would be badass if he revealed that the movie was in the same universe.

he stayed in the basement, covering the case of the man who killed his wife, whom he treated once, as a part of loop that he lives in, as a ghost- one day the boy (the lead character) happens upon him at the church (where they met, and continue to meet)- the only thing that spoils that is the meeting he has with him at his home, with his mother there, it is kind of a plot hole; but the rest is explained.
i kinda like the approach of treat a film like what it is, a series of pictures.
who cares if it's "fake". all film is fake.

I watched it I managed to not talk during the last 45 minutes but it was still pretty boring.
When the girl pissed herself I shouted out at least it's not red wings!
I shouted at the movie screen 6 or 7 times at least and we paid 15.25 to see it. Can you believe that? We could own the movie now?
I thought the sfx were the best part the movie was pretty grim and foreign looking
