Totally unnecessary sequel

The original Blair Witch film was a little overrated but fairly original and not entirely bad. Sadly this sequel doesn't even match this standard and really didn't need to be made. The plot starts off fairly irrationally with the main character believing that his sister (from the first film) is still alive 17 years later... and it doesn't get much better from there. The real scares are virtually non-existent and it just gets very stupid with lots of silly loud noises. Character development is lacking and the whole film is very underwhelming. Yet another below average found footage film.

Totally agree - bombed completely. And the ending was ridiculous.

An extremely amazing film with an ending they tell you is gonna happen from the beginning, yet you don't believe it. Characters that get the most development are Thor, Vision, Scarlett Witch, Doctor Strange, Gamorra, Thanos, and the Hulk, which, when you think about it, is still quite a lot.

The ending makes you really feel like something has changed in the world. The acting is great. The special effects are really good. This is the first time I have ever noticed the score in a Marvel film. Go see it as soon as possible in theaters. This is an actual cultural event.

A different Horror trip

I've been wanting to see this for quite a while, so glad it showed up on Netflix and appears to be made by them as well.
It's definitely one that likes to build on tension and how the characters react to their surroundings. More in common with the Descent than Blair Witch for me, which is a good thing. The ending was a bit abrupt but it least it gave some explanation of what was going on. Top marks for being a bit different to most horror films relying on jump scares.

I really enjoyed this one, but it seemed to have flown under the radar upon it's release.

This was a series that was a spin off of vampire diaries but I feel was so much better. I love the way it ended but not that it ended. This follows the story of the original vampire family and how they became so cruel,also how in a way how they became good again. Thought a little mirical baby names hope, and how in the end why she became an orphan. If you love a good witch, vampire, werewolf fued this is just a must see.

Split (2017) is, ironically, a slyly connective work from M Night Shyamalan #Review

Powered by a terrific set of performances from James McAvoy, the film manages to explore the fascinating dramatic potential of dissociative identity disorder without feeling sensational or exploitative. McAvoy finds ways beyond mere costume changes to make each personality a character in their own right, both through vocal versatility and tremendous physicality, aided by a vulnerable but determined turn from Anya Taylor-Joy (“The Witch”) as Casey, one of the kidnapped girls who hides a dark secret of her own...
