#NikkiStevenReact #Split #MovieReaction - Zábava
Split is awesome. James McAvoy is a phenomenal actor and he deserved an oscar for that performance.
True but the academy is bias and the fact that Val Kilmer never won an Oscar shows you they suck
@@nebulous8389 Part of that is you know they can't give it to some people TOO early. DeCap is owed several, for instance.
Too true..
Was robbed for sure!
Great performance
Sure he showed range but considering the damage it did to the DID community I personally don’t think so.
if anyone had any doubt regarding his acting skills,this destroys it
James McAvoy is a big reason why this movie works so well. Fantastic actor.
So true
Which is especially impressive considering at this point, Shyamalan was a laughing stock, but the movie was good enough to redeem his reputation.
Split is such a great movie! James McAvoy really deserved so many awards and recognition for this
I agree
I was in total awe of his performance here. The level of detail from the the speech patterns, voice pitch, and body language as he shifts from one character to another is incredible.
I went in total blind to this and was already reeling before the tie-in to Unbreakable.
W his performance was amazing
@@RicoRaynnyeah so good
❤
honestly, the scariest part of this movie was that she was returning to the real-life monster, her uncle. that always makes my stomach turn... and james mcavoy really did the characters justice without being over the top with it.
Yes but after this ordeal I think the Uncle is going to be in trouble. I like to imagine that she got her revenge on him. Helps me sleep at night.
@@jxchamb yes. maybe now, with experience, she's be able to fight back.
@@jeanebplus now she's going to be examined by doctors after the experience and they will see the old scars - too old to have come from her captivity
Yes! Her uncle was far more terrifying then Kevin was, Kevin was a victim & his dangerous personalities were doing everything in their power to protect him. You can’t say the same about her uncle, when he’s on all fours & howling like a literal animal is haunting. And when you go back & re-watch the flashback scenes you’ll notice her uncle is always handing her dad a beer, his plan all along was for him to pass out drunk.
just watch the movie Glass and you'll know what happened afterwards.
James McAvoy was simply incredible in this role! And that includes his performance in Glass as well.
His performance in Glass blew me away. Its where I knew which personality it was even when he didn't have any dialogue.
I just saw Split..was blown away
@@annrodriguez2891 james mcvoy is an amazing underrated actor
He was also great in Glass, but the movie itself? Not so much.
I found it so strange how I couldn't help but feel bad for everyone involved. The scene where Kevin wakes up was so sad.
I think you supposed. He was a victim, had serious trauma. They actually dive into Kevin’s trauma even more in Glass. His dangerous personalities are doing everything they can to protect Kevin, that’s why they created the Beast.
I was one of the few people who was a huge unbreakable fan who saw this in theatre who had no idea it was connected with unbreakable. The ending caused my jaw drop. I’ve never been so shocked by an ending. I was so hyped
same 💜💜
Absolutely then the ending of glass happened.....I won't spoil it though but if ya know you know...
I worked at a Hollywood Video and the week after this came out had sooo many people coming in to look for Unbreakable, it was impossible to avoid the spoiler. As someone who had loved Unbreakable, hadn't soured on M. Night quite yet, and was actually really looking forward to this one based on the trailers; that was a bummer. Still a great movie though... And I saw Glass, but all I remember is the disappointment.
I freaked out when I first saw this film, I had no idea it would be linked and the person I was watching with hadn't seen unbreakable so I was just freaking out on my own 😂
@nebulous8389 Exactly. So hyped to "okay...why..."
that Bruce Willis cameo hit so much harder for me because when i saw this i didn't realize split and unbreakable were connected.
Same, and for me even though my parents have owned Unbreakable since my childhood I never watched it, it still did it for me.
As someone with Dissociative Identity Disorder it is always terrifying to see how people will react to this movie. Because unfortunately as much as people say "It's obviously not real, no one is going to compare you to that" people really do. We've had so many friends panic when I say I'm dissociating and ask if they need to leave because this movie was the only exposure they have to DID. There are no "evil alters" and every alter has the singular purpose of keeping the body and the system safe. Sometimes they dont understand the best way to do that and have conflicting thoughts. The best way to describe it is that you shatter a plate on the ground, no singular piece is the "original" piece. Each of those pieces has a trauma that is kept separate so they can all live on a day to day basis. TW for this next bit. For example, we have an alter called Arlow who handles our car crash trauma. This means that if another alter has to get in the car and drive somewhere they can, because they have no memory of the trauma. But if we're in the car and we hear tires screeching it can trigger her out (like how Kevin is triggered by the use of his full name). Thank you guys for not demonising DID within the context of this movie, its very refreshing to see people keeping it separate. It is very well portrayed (other than the beast, kidnapping, etc) by James McAvoy as each alter being a completely different person. Unfortunately i think thats why so many people cant tell where the line is, because he portrays it all in such a real way its hard to tell when it goes into the "fantastical". Long story short people with DID are far more likely to continue to be victims of abuse. We're not scary, the REAL horrors are what causes Dissociative Identity Disorder to occur. The awful traumas inflicted on children that cause a shatter of the mind.
For me the second you see Bruce Willis on screen as David Dunne talking about Mr. Glass you're supposed to recontextualize the whole film as existing in a super hero universe. For me that means the talk about DID sufferers that have alters who can see and alters who are blind, manifesting diabetes in alters etc, thats the non realism.Thats the stuff you throw out of the equation. I also never saw The Horde as particularly evil even though they kidnapped people. They're just trying to protect Kevin the only way they know how. They just decided the best way to do that was at the expense of other people. I think the only big mistake in terms of the portrayal of DID is that they waited until the end of the movie to reveal that we've been in a superhero universe the whole time and I think because the audience has spent so long thinking this meant to be a realistic film that the end reveal comes too late to properly contextualize the realism and lack thereof in the film, All that being said, a lot of people don't think that deeply about movies and what they're actually saying about their subject matter. I don't blame the film for people's perception of DID so much as I blame a lack of media literacy on the part of some members of the audience.
Yes! I do not have DID, but I am a future psychologist. I also have a few friends (same system) with DID.
Thank you for educating people who might not realize this! One of my biggest issues with M Night is how often he uses mental illness as the scary people in his movies. He has a long history of doing this.
@ohcdoe
Your input is well received (I speak for myself only). I didn't realize how little I actually know about DID, other than tv & movies & CZcams portrayals. I am sure they are less than accurate most of the time. I promise myself I will become more knowledgeable about DID.
It is horrible the terrible things people do to others. I hope your trauma is less as an adult, I'll pray for your childhood self. The human mind is a complicated thing.
Pertaining to the movie: I saw this when it was newly released, many years ago, in the theater. I remember being so freaked out at one point in the movie that I screamed out loud!! Very embarrassing! No one seemed to mind but ME. That said, the actors were exceptional. The caring, informed nature of the psychiatrist surprised me most. She certainly put herself in vulnerable situations, that was hard to believe.
Regarding your reactions: Thank you. I never really thought about it before, but M. Night does center his movies around mental health a lot. I seem to like his movies less, now that you pointed that out. There is enough stigma around mental health without a false narrative to warp our feelings and behaviors. Good movie review.
OH BOY I have a channel you'll like. These two guys called Cinema Therapy actually did a comparison between this movie and Moon Knight and how they handled DID. One guy is a professional licensed therapist and the other is a licensed filmmaker. They ultimately came to the conclusion that Split is a good movie, but definitely not a good source of psychology. Moon Knight while also having good writing is also more accurate to the whole thing of DID and more considerate of the audience who may have it. They even say the therapy scene in Moon Knight was good, even if it was a magical hallucination. They're a really wholesome duo and if you loved how this video reacted to this movie, I have a feeling you'll adore these guys
James McAvoy was so good in this that not only were his characters all unique from each other, but he did so well portraying them that he could change from one character to another and you could tell which one it was without him even saying a word. Just posture and facial expression. Also - there was a twist ending. The twist was that this is a sequel to Unbreakable. I wish you hadn't been spoiled as it was a big gasp moment in the theaters.
Yes! His therapy session when he finally reveals to the doctor that he’s really Dennis & not Barry is genius! The way he changed in a blink of an eye was really masterful!
This movie is totally underrated. So glad you guys are watching the film! It's definitely one of my favorites with Anya Taylor-Joy.
its overrated
Anya Taylor Joy is bae
This is M. Night Shyamalan's best movie in years and James McAvoy should have been nominated for an Oscar for his performance.
Best movie period. No ?
Kevin pays his respect to his father just before transforming into the beast because his father died in the same train 15 years ago where only David Dunn survived in Unbreakable.
Right! That is such brilliant foreshadowing! I also like the throw away line “like they have powers or something” from the doctor’s co-worker or whoever he is!
underrated trilogy , unbreakable , splitt , glass
Glass started strong then fell apart at the end. It was supposed to be a strong ending, and was just flat.
Glass was aweful it’s a shame since spilt was so awesome
I'm gonna ignore the inclusion of glass...
Underrated D U O L O G Y, as far as I know there's only two movies. Glass? Never heard of it, imagine seen it. Was out this year? Imma google It right now.
Everybody still crying over glass
There's actually a moment in "Unbreakable" in which a woman in a pink dress and her kid walk next to David. In that moment David senses the boy's abuse and hears his screams. That little kid is Kevin. It's a little easter egg.
Split was so tightly lip-sealed that no one knew it was connected to Unbreakable until everyone saw the ending.
If you haven’t already seen M. Night Shyamalan’s Sixth Sense, then it is a must.
This was my 1st Anya Taylor-Joy film, and I was enthralled by her! And of course, not to forget James McAvoy! Just wow!
Did you check out the Witch?
Yes, she really held her own. Something that isnt' easy to do when you're next to someone like McAvoy putting on this level of performance.
@@Number0neSon That was the 2nd thing I actually watched her in after Split. Initially, I actually didn't like The VVitch.
The entire movie was fantastic, but the dialogue was so confusing for me that I had absolutely no idea what was even going on in the film. I struggled horribly when we had to read things like Shakespeare in school because of the dialogue. I literally had to have my sister read it to me and explain what was even going on. And SparkNotes saved me during those units.
I saw a reactor I like, explain The VVitch really well so I could understand what was happening. I had to watch a bunch of explanation videos and then rewatch it to appreciate it more. I had to do the same with The Lighthouse. Robert Eggers loves his authentic dialogue but my brain can't comprehend it.
When I initially watched it though, Anya was my favorite and stole the show for me, naturally. She also was the most understandable based on the context clues she provided.
@@deadsetondreams1988 She was one of the best things about New Mutants!
Cassey was never suposed to be there. Dennis plan was just to get the two girls who put Barry hands on their boobs. That was the trigger for Dennis to come back to light. She only survived because she was "broken" like them
barry hand on their boobs? i'm confuse
Wait were they them? I thought it was different girls
@@EughhBrothereughhI don’t think they were supposed to be the same girls. It’s just the event that triggered Dennis, Patricia & Hedwig to create the Beast to protect Kevin. Neither Claire or Marcia seemed like girls that would do that. They actually kind of went out of their way to show they weren’t mean girls like inviting Casey to her birthday party even though they weren’t friends, she didn’t want to hurt her feeling by leaving her out. And she also talked her into having her dad drive her home. What those other girls did was pull a cruel, humiliating joke on Kevin.
@@EughhBrothereughh i think Hedwig says that Dennis choose those girls for a reason, like if it was premeditated. M Night always put dialogs that complete unseen scenes in his movies. (Sorry my bad english)
@@Adrianne519 i found very interesting the dialogue between doctor Fletcher and Dennis (who was pretending to be Barry) and she mensions the two girls incident. I think that was the way m night show us the link between the decision for those girls and Dennis.
I’m sorry but Nikki saying “that’s why I used to be scared of baby monitors” made me laugh so hard 🤣
James should’ve won an award for that acting in all those personalities that he was able to do.
I don't care what anybody says, Split is a good movie period! Definitely one of M. Nights best films
It’s definitely top 3 for me! This, The Sixth Sense & Unbreakable! Sorry, not a fan of Sighs.
@@Adrianne519What about Glass
@@_Yombo I love that one too!! It’s also up there
Just saw James McAvoy in real life today. He visited Belgium for our Comic Con and did a Q&A with us. Seriously genuine good guy, you see the way he acts himself that he loves his fans and appreciates them. Also very funny guy to, laughed a few times at his answers.
I saw this movie when it came out, I think it’s his best performance ever.
Imagine getting a main role in a movie and then finding out it's 24 roles. What a great actor it takes to take that on.
To be fair he only cycles between 4 of the personalities and the others only get a brief cameo, but still impressive that he made the main ones all feel distinct and unique from each other
Only other actor I've seen be able to do something like that is Tatiana Maslany in Orphan Black. So much talent between both actors.
@@djrulez66537
I remember seeing this in the theaters. I was legitimately scared for those girls. That was real-life terror, including Casey's flashbacks. Just that section of the movie, I really wish Shyamalan would make more films like that. When I first saw the final scene of the movie, I threw my fist up in the air and said, "UNBREAKABLE!"
when i heard the score to unbreakable is when i figured it out..way before seeing bruce :)
when i saw this movie in the movie theater, i had to tell some people to stfu cause they were making fun of hun wearing a dress, like people do have split personalities, like imagine how they have to deal with that every day. i love him at an actor and he played this role so well.
I love the irony of Nikki shouting at the old lady who is shouting at the people on TV. “They can’t hear you!” Indeed. 😊
_🔥Shyamalan's Trilogy🔥_
★ - *Unbreakable* (2000) | _Bruce Willis_
★ - *Split* (2016) | _James McAvoy_
★ - *Glass* (2019) | _Samuel L Jackson_
Glass didn’t work for me
@@MT-si3bu I loved it.
James McAvoy performance in this movie was beyond incredible
Oh, there's an outtake of him switching between all 23 personalities and is amazing
And here is my favorite actor: James McAvoy. He is FANTASTIC and so, so underrated. He is such a magnificent actor in everything he does. And James as a person is also so charismatic, and has the bluest eyes to ever blue.
The moment Patricia entered the room the whole big cinema hall feel silent in shock. 😂
such a great film and incredible acting by James McAvoy
30:18 "Now its closed, now its open." Love that part.
The acting by James McAvoy was insane in this movie. He was criminally snubbed! Stellar performance.
“You’ve got crumbs on your sweater” 😂😂😂😂
This movie is the reason I crack up every time I hear the name Patricia 😂😂
I think the scariest scene is when Hedwig dances for Casey. It’s filmed in such an interesting and unsettling way, the unpredictability is what makes him so threatening in that moment. It’s funny but frightening. And yes, JM is great in this role. He’s doing fearless work. FYI I read in an interview that MNS told him what he wanted JM to do in that scene, like ‘just do a dance’ and JM came up with a story that he ends up doing, telling the story thru the dance.
I'll never forget being in theaters to see McAvoy's performance, totally blown away by his performance, and then getting chills hearing the Unbreakable music kick in and realizing that they are connected. This movie is such a gem. Everyone nailed their roles! Amazing reaction and review!
Btw, check out ATJ in The Queen's Gambit.
Awe, my favourite of the Unbreakable trilogy! James McAvoy really did deserve an Oscar for this movie. The first movie "Unbreakable" and the last "Mr. Glass" are also very good!
He has been subbed by the Oscars several times! He should have gotten one for The Last King Of Scotland & Atonement! And of course this film as well! He is honestly one of my favorites actors & has always been SO underrated!
McAvoy gave a masterclass on characterization in this one
One of my favorites. ❤
I got a quote from this movie tattooed.
"The broken are the more evolved"
The ending was not meant to connect to unbreakable, it was a tease for the Glass movie.
Yes it was because in Unbreakable, Bruce’s character bumps into a mother and son and in his head he hears “No Mommy, Please No” which is the son begging his mom to not hurt him. Bruce’s character turns and looks at the mother as she walks away. It was clearly a young Kevin who was the son.
Yeah, how McAvoy didn’t win all the awards for this is beyond me. I LOVE his performance. I also really love the doctor and how they portrayed her as someone truly wanting to help and understand, and had valid things to say…which a lot of times is not the case in movies with psychiatrists.
Boys and girls, get ready because here comes one of the best performances in cinema, from the expressive master, James McAvoy. The film is very good, but James' performance is the icing on the cake.
He was awesome
James McAvoy has magnificent range.
The fact that his performance didn’t receive an Oscar nomination is criminal.
One of my favorite movies, hands down. James was so freaking amazing in this. Patricia is my favorite identity.
The Village is my favorite M. Night movie. A lot of people think it's terrible, but I love it.
I loved the village until the crappy ending.
@@nebulous8389 I didn't mind the ending. You could see it coming. I still wonder why they hadn't just made a commune instead. They still could've done their own thing, but had modern conveniences. But, I guess that was kind of the point of choosing that time period, to not be involved in the modern life and horrors.
“The broken are the more evolved”
That line has always stuck with me
I remember watching this in theaters 😊
I love the details they put when the changes personality.
Like when Henrick (the kid) is trying to push the girls he can’t, but when he changes to Dennis, he pushes both of them putting all their weight like nothing.
James came to set and SHOWED TF OUT....like GEEZ he KILLED it
“Damaged people are dangerous…they know they can survive…”- Josephine Hart
This was a good movie! M. Night is well known for his supernatural stories with twist endings.
What makes this film exceptional is that not many realized it was a sequel to 'Unbreakable' at first until it was shown at the end.
Not many movies can pull off that surprise factor every time. If they did, we would go see them much more often.
P.S. - Please check out & react to 'As Above, So Below' when you get the chance. It's a good scary movie to watch.
Yes! As Above, So Below is one of the better found footage movies. Also recommend Grave Encounters.
And when you watch it knowing the twist, certain hints pop out loud and clear. The best one is probably the colour symbolism, with Casey slowly going from red to green.
An underrated movie. The acting from the two leads....S tier.
Yeah, great performances all aroubd
9:33 the irony being this is how Nikki and Steve make a living… Y’all yell at the TV and they can’t hear YOU! 😂😂😂
There arent many actors out there now that could sell a complex character like this and James McAvoy was a fantastic choice
Y'all gotta watch MORE M. Knight Shyamalan movies: "The Village", "The Happening", "The Lady In the Water" (MY favorite), ad "Glass"!
M. Night Shyamalan is one of the great talents in the movie in industry. Such a writer! Kudos
This movie is so underrated I loved it and McAvoy did amazing in this playing the personalities he's really an underrated actor as well
Yes! Have been waiting for this one to drop here on youtube❤ James McAvoy is Utterly Amazing in this film, he so should have gotten an award for this performance❤ This is the movie I discovered Anya Taylor-Joy and I loved seeing Betty Buckley (Carrie & of course Eight is Enough) You Guys are Awesome❤❤❤
James McAvoy should have won an award for his portrayal in this movie. Definitely will injustice done to him. He's acting skills in this movie were superb!
awesome reaction, now we gotta watch the finale Glass
Give the man 23 oscars please
In case no one didn't know,the old lady in this movie is the actor who plays the PE teacher from Carrie 1976.
If I recall correctly James got the role very late, whomever was supposed to do it pulled out. It’s even more impressive to know he didn’t have a lot of time to invent each personality
I'm sure it's been said but, now you've got to watch the 3rd film Glass. I was SO pleased when I saw you were watching this film :) .. one of my faves x
This was such an incredible movie, and the most mind blowing fact that nobody saw coming was it opened up as a continuation of Unbreakable. Some even viewed it as a sequel. So incredible.
No one saw it coming! How brilliant was it to have this be a sequel to a film that came out at least 10 years earlier!! And Shyamalan wanted to make this much soon but it just never was the right timing. There’s actually a scene in Unbreakable where they show a Mom being very aggressive with her son at I believe a baseball game & that was supposed to be Kevin, he planned for that! But luckily he did wait because if he hadn’t he probably wouldn’t have gotten James & he is what makes this film!

Scary flick. Everyone knocked it out of the park! I hope this means you'll be watching Glass next!!! I'm curious on your thoughts.
And Anya is terrific! You must watch Queen's Gambit!
You need to watch "Last Night in Soho." That is another great thriller starring Anya Taylor-Joy!
YES!! It's so good!
And Matt smith is in it!!
with thomasin ❤
16yrs he hid the fact that this was linked to Unbreakable, the end blew my mind when it happened, no way I expected that.
James McAvoy was so expressive and a phenomenal actor, made this such a stellar film.
Fun Fact: Originally the concept for The Horde was almost introduced in Unbreakable as another villain, but didn't have room, so he saved the Horde for this film.
The fact that James McAvoy wasn't even nominated for an Oscar for these roles was baffling
Man this gives me nostalgia, I remember watching this when it came out. This was an awesome movie
His acting is very good.
I saw this a long time ago and felt exactly the way Steven did its a masterpiece. I'm glad someone finally reacted to it. The mind can find ways to heal or cover up trauma you've gone through in a way to allow you to carry on a so called normal life and not give in to the negativity that could come out of traumatic experiences.
This is one of my favorite movies of all time 🎉
I am so glad you liked it.
The actors were doing an immaculate job
I tear up on this movie was so great James brought every character to life just wow.. loved ur guys reaction
Now you guys have to watch unstoppable and the sequel to split "glass"
I love The Village because the twist you expect doesn't come and it's totally different in the end. M. Night does such an amazing job with twist endings.
Split is one of the movies that feed you with a spoon full of information, tense, and compeling world-building EVERY SCENE. not mention the absolutly brilliant acting!
as green stroy maker i dont know if the genre and overall story is the one i asked.. but it proofs with the right adoptation, and ALOT of great work i just cannot be ignorant to a masterpiece in front of me. left me astonished
Anya Taylor Joy is also great in “The Queen’s Gambit”. Great miniseries, recommend it
I love this movie. Jame McAvoy is incredible. You guys definitely want to watch Glass.
This is a really amazing movie. You two were almost speechless throughout it!
James McAvoy is a beast(pun intended). such a powerhouse performance. I feel hes HIGHLY underrated. keep it up.
The fact that this takes place in the same universe has Unbreakable is awesome and Im a huge Unbreakable fan 👌🏼
Im so glad you guys are watching that!!! ❤❤❤ love you guys from Québec! Can't wait for house of usher episode 3!!!
I don’t know why McAvoy didn’t get nominated for an Oscar. A performance that strong deserves recognition.
…change of subject… you have probably heard of that movie that came out this about the A.I. doll “Megan”. The original film was called “Morgan”, starring Anya Taylor-Joy as the A.I. living person. Megan was such a slap in the face to the whole cast and crew of
“Morgan”. I really suggest you check her out in that. It was the first film that I saw her in and WOW! What an introduction!
Absolutely incredible movie. Such a terrific performance.
You gonna love the next one
People with DID have said, and experts, that this isn't accurate of many things including what it is or how it works, but esp since they arent violent. However his performance is phenomenal, gorgeous performance
They diff can be my ex had it and he switched into his violent one and beat the crap outta me and trust he got beat back when he did that and i left
@@Alexisthetornado That's not to do with DID sweetie
You should also see the movie Glass. Unbreakable, Split and Glass are in the same era.
I didn’t think I could love you guys any more, watching you being immersed in this masterpiece was awesome. So proud of James McEvoy, another great English actor.
him working in the zoo is where the beast comes from because the doctor said that the trama he used to go through is what made the personalities so dennis has ocd because his mom and the beast got the idea from the animals like thick skin like a rhino and he runs like a tiger and the dad died from the train accident from unbreakable this move is so good
Arguably The Sixth Sense had way more mainstream cultural impact, but Split imo is up there for best Shyamalan movie, if only for McAvoy's acting.
Glass fell flat for me sadly, but i can't deny that Shyamalan has no problem of going for his vision, for better or worse. At the very least it's always interesting to see what exactly he's come up with.
What I love (as a philly boy ) with all M night Shyamalan movies is how they are all in or around philly, I remember when I first seen this when dr. Fletcher met him outside I knew right away. That was the Philadelphia zoo. 😂
The twist was so good. Man I was floored.
Really loved you 2 addeessing the "oh i wouldve done this" complaint that people often have in movies that have insane situations that in all actually no one knows how theyd react until they are forced to.
James McAvoy is absolutely mesmerising in this film, like you can't believe your eyes. The entire film could easily have failed hard or ended up looking comedic, but he more than nailed the role, he took it to the next level. Not only that, the cinematography by Mike Giolakis is amazing as well (he also did It Follows, US, and the series Servant).
I highly recommend you watch Glass as well. This whole trilogy is very underrated!
Loved watching this with you guys
