I was stood in line at the garage last night, and the woman in the queue before me described the entire bloody film to her boyfriend. Including the ending, which she didn't actually understand but said enough about it that I did.
(I was going to end this with the line "Fucking random people in garages, jesus" but realised it was somewhat open to misinterpretation.)

Fairly pedestrian thriller that plays incredibly fast and loose with the facts of the story it's based on. It did tension quite well, but there's really nothing else to it other than that. not bad, but hardly essential g.man

If you're happy enough to suspend your disbelief (I was) and accept the cinema trope that is split personalities, then McAvoy is indeed excellent. Creepy, intimidating, weird. I also thought the main girl was excellent, although I was a little distracted by trying to remember where I'd seen her before (The VVitch) and even more distracted by the girl in the front row who decided to check her phone, presumably to find out the same thing.
I was less put off by it being a Shyamalan film; I think I've enjoyed his other output more than most, and The Visit creeped me the fuck out, so I was expecting (and got) something not dissimilar here.
