Nooo, ive never seen unbreakable but if making Kevin a sort of Super Villain it makes more sense but still this gets me out of the picture.
i was expecting a deep drama/thriller about this condition and taking this in a more real tone and the ending took me out my ideal thriller.

I think the series Chance from Hulu touched this subject much better and was more sublte in the change of personalities between Jackie and Jacklyn and explained much better how the second personality came up

I'm curious, did you not see any of the trailers for Split? The beast transformation aspect is heavily hinted at in the trailers. You expected a more realitic take on DID but that was never what Split was meant to be. Split is a fantasy about the monster inside that is born out of suffering.

I watched a tv spot or clip on YouTube before a video i wanted to see which presented just the kidnaping part and him having many personalities but didn't see the beast hint. I probably wouldn't have had the same interest in watching the film if i knew it was an origins story of a super villain.

I expected something more in the lines of sixth sense which might have a few supernatural elements but having more depth or something like silence of the lambs.
i expected a more serious thriller hehe maybe if i watch it the second time for what it is, im gonna like it more. The same happened to me with gone girl but in a different way.

witn Gone girl I didn't watch any trailers beforehand but anyway the first half seemed like it was gonna be a sort of sleeing with the Enemy but with a more A list cast and director and found it much more intriguing before the twist.

I was like nooooooo, i wanted an unofficial Sleeping with Enemy remake and i got so disappointed by the second half then re watched the film and liked more for what it really was. It was a great twist its just i was mad that it took a whole different direction than the one i wanted the film to take.
