Split is undoubtedly one of the most awaited cinema in recent times,the prime attraction being that this is a M. Night Shyamalan venture.Without any second thoughts,Split just offers what you expected.This is a brilliantly crafted thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seats.Coming to the performances,James McAvoy puts up a thunderous show,enacting all the personalities with extreme perfection,this is indeed an exemplary performance.The way he portrayed the 24th identity is just outstanding,the intensity he carried in those sequences were unmatchable.Anya Taylor Joy is another superb performer,she delivers an excellent act.Betty Buckley,Haley Lu Richardson and Jessica Sula were good.

M. Night Shyamalan once again displays his sheer briiliance as a top-class filmmaker.The well nuanced and the deeply rooted narrative pattern is indeed the signature style of Shyamalan movies,same is the case with Split.With an enaging plot on board,he just made a fabulous cinema.This one has some real good spine-chilling moments,way better than those usual horror flicks delivers.The technical aspects were great,each and every department delivered exactly what the movie required,the absence if visual gimmicks was a huge relief.Split clearly sets the stage for the grand comeback of M. Night Shyamalan,this one is a brilliant cinema on the whole.

Overall,Split is Brilliant !

8.5/10
