The Split

How can a movie with this set-up, cast and locations be such a let down. Maybe it's too much of a good thing much more likely it's just underwritten and not a good enough Director melding it all together. Soundtrack was filled with hits tho

A cast this stacked and it comes out like this? Disappointing, but Jim Brown rules in it.

Passes the time.

The Split really serves as an in-between of '50's film noir & 70's blaxploitation. It has the hard-boiled noir angle of men committing a crime while distrusting one another. And it marries that with a blaxploitation hero ready to erupt against the racism of a criminal underworld. However, the script has several missteps, mostly involving a few late twists and a tacked-on ending. Still, it is adroitly made, Brown is good, and the Quincy Jones soundtrack is fantastic. Marginal recommendation.

Em honra de Diahann Carroll (1935–2019) filme #1. Não é tão ameno ou ruim como alguns pessoas querem fazer pensar, na verdade é um belo prenúncio de blaxploitation por ter Carroll e Brown como protagonistas com direito à trilha de Quincy Jones e um elenco de apoio dus infernos. PirateBay.

Impossible to care about any of these smug characters despite an interesting cast. Jim Brown is particularly awful.
