Split Movie Review

So a few days ago I went with a friend and saw the movie Split, written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan.
It was good...
I can't believe I just wrote that a Shyamalan movie was good...
What is this world coming too...
Anyways, James McAvoy was perfect for this role, after watching his performance I can't picture any other actor taking the role. When he changed between personalities he completely became a different character, he could just change his facial expressions ever so slightly, and you would know that he is someone else know.
Anya Taylor-Joy, a young 20 year old actress, who played the character Casey Cooke, gave an excellent performance, I can't wait to see more of her work. She truly could be a rising star.
There was a subtleness about the camera work that added something more to the film, which added a layer of depth that can only be seen through watching this yourself.
So are there any downfalls to this film? Yes, yes there are. James McAvoy's character has a therapist, which I believe her dialogue could have been better written, and I believe her motivation that's withheld in her interest in James McAvoy's character could have been better explained.
I overall enjoyed the film though.


finale score:4.5/5

The Batman Movie Review

The Batman Movie Review A Solid Noir Film I went and saw The Batman the other day with one of my buddies and I must say, we really enjoyed it. Granted I don't think this movie is for everyone. The Batman follows Batman (Robert Pattinson) during his second year of crime fighting. When the mayor of Gotham is killed by The Riddler (Paul Dano), it is up to Batman with the help of James Gordon (Jeffery Wright), and Selina Kyle (Zoƫ Kravitz) to stop him. From a visual point of view, The Batman is gorgeous. Every frame is a painting. The acting is solid, the plot is solid. The musical score is outstanding. I personally loved the film, but there are some things in it that could off-set some Batman fans. I typically get into the acting first, but like you've probably already heard many reviewers say before, the city is a character in this film. Gotham feels real, grounded, and certainly not a place you'd want to visit. Corruption and crime run rampant at every level of society. The ...
