I guess this was actually released last year, although it's real opening was 1/17.
I remember seeing trailers for this last year and thought it looked pretty good. When reviews came in so positive, I actually got worried I would go in with expectations that are too high.
Well...I really enjoyed this and had no idea where it was going, even though where it went, other than a twist at the end, was pretty logical. It just worked and was creepy, scary, and intense all at the same time.
Acting was excellent all the way around, and James McAvoy was amazing.
I can see where some won't like the direction this takes, but for me, it was a very solid flick that will stick with me for some time.
Agree, was a very decent film, and McAvoy was great in the multiple roles... given it's M Knight I was expecting a different twist but was pleased he went where he did.
I was disappointed, thought it was crap really. The three girl's acting was awful to say the least. The lead female was one dimentional. James was good but I felt having 23 personalities and highlighting 4 of them was pointless, so much more room to grow.
I didn't think it had any real tension or horror.
Just the way it is with M. Night, either pure genius or utter crap.
Don't know what to think if this one. I enjoyed it. Sometimes that's more than enough.
Breaking it down, I don't really see how it holds together. The big selling point... The multiple personalities are all but inconsequential. You could have told the same story with just one personality. Something like Thomas Harris' s Red Dragon, one man obsessed with becoming something else.
It seemed like it was heading along the same path as Identity and the Ward... A person suffering multiple personality disorder who was imagining all the characters in the story. That actually seemed to be the logical conclusion of everything right up until the epilogue.
As it was the whole split thing was extraneous to the story.
It was essentially Identity but minus the twist. It's all just happening exactly as it says it is.
I can see why the lad above said it was offensive. Didn't offend me, but it's an exploitation movie and no mistake. It exists to have three very young girls in minimal clothing so the Director can look at them. I get it.
I think every man would secretly like to have a Dungeon where they could keep scantily clad young women. Or perhaps it's just me, and a lot of other guys and some of you are actually, genuinely "normal".

That's a pretty creepy comment, brother.
Actually, I would not enjoy that at all. I'd rather have my scantily clad women with me on the sofa, in the bed, or in the spa.
The film is made by a married man of 46. It features young teenage "pure" girls locked in a basement who are gradually undressed from scene to scene.
It's what people used to call an exploitation movie, but it's got more in common with the current trend of "fan service" games from Japan where you often have to undress young girls or take pictures of them.
