While I actually kinda liked the first one, it'll be way too long in between flicks.

Yes. James McAvoy is probably one of the greatest actors among his peers. He delivered an amazing performance in that.

Yeah, and reviewed it here.
I remember it being good. Vince is correct that McAvoy is awesome in it.

I think what most impressed me was once his personalities were established, he'd slip into one and within a couple of seconds you immediately knew which one he was.

Rotten Tomatoes has this at 37%. However, upon digging, I see the viewer's score is 71%. Over at IMDB, the score is 6.8.
The viewers are right and the critics are wrong about this one.
Listen, this isn't a perfect movie. There are flaws. However, the twists are the best M. Night twists since Unbreakable.
My biggest complaint were the angles used in fights. They were clearly covering for Willis' age. So don't come looking for fights. In fact, the narrative even explains why this doesn't resemble a Marvel movie (great nod to them in the film too) and it works on two levels. It's actually quite brilliant. The concept of this film is what makes it a win for me. It's funny because I enjoyed the film, had certain expectations built, did NOT get those expectations met, was mad, then was thrown a curve ball that won me back.
This is a superhero movie with very little "super". It's a character piece with some fun twists.
