Underrated by
the Critics, but Too Talky & a Little Bit Messy

Good: The
acting across the board from the main cast: James McAvoy, Samuel L. Jackson,
and Bruce Willis are great. However, like in "Split" McAvoy is
definitely the standout portraying so many personalities one after the other is
fascinating to watch. Although the setup is great and intriguing, it feels
glossed over to get to the main plot. Shyamalan's direction with camera angles
and shots also standout and help capture the scenes along with the color scheme
as seen in the other movies. I appreciate the overall theme of the movie and
the message Shymalan is trying to tell, but suffers in the end and pacing...
Bad: As a
film that started off with "Unbreakable" and supposed to be the long
awaited sequel to it, Bruce Willis' character does not have much depth and is
more on the sidelines. There is a lot of talking and some parts definitely drag
making the film feel longer than it actually is, however even with this not
much seems to develop and happen.
Overall: The
film is getting bashed way too hard by the critics, but overrated by the
audience. The film's tone is more like "Unbreakable" than
"Split" with more talking and a few action scenes here and there.
