Predictable, derivative, and sometimes preposterous, "Split" benefits largely from McAvoy's nuanced performance as well as Shyamalan's usual last-minute surprises.

Apr 6, 2017 · A Shyamalan return-to-form feels less like a comeback and more like reincarnation. Or a release from a decade-and-a-half of wacky psychiatric internment. There was something about The Visit, his last movie before this one, that lent credence to that theory. It felt like he’d been away for a while.

Split actually resembles the latter film in some ways, rooted in real-world theories about the elastic limits of human possibility.
