Split follows the story of three young girls who are kidnapped by a crazed man with an unprecedented case of Split Personality Disorder. The girls must fight for their lives while their abductor's psychology spirals out of control as more is revealed about the past - and future - of the characters. It stars James McAvoy (X-Men Franchise) as the kidnapper and Anya Taylor-Joy (The Witch) as his very unlucky victim.
M.

With 2016 now truly behind us and a whole new year ahead, it's time to look forward at what we can expect - and anticipate - about 2017. In this post I'll give a list of the 10 movies we should all get excited for already coming later this year, starting with a couple honorable mentions to kick it off. Most of these movies will not end up in my best of the year list in December, but they will all certainly create discussion and excitement over the next 12 months.
