Racist movie from a racist director Jordan Peele. Movie basically is giving us a message that all white people are bad and evil and all black people are the good and great ones. It's a trash movie and should be left in a trashcan.
Not surprisingly, "Chris" (Daniel Kaluuya) is apprehensive of his first meeting with the parents of his girlfriend "Rose" (Allison Williams) as the couple arrive at their remote country home. Now what we can plainly see from the outset comes as a bit of a shock to the folks, but they are cordial enough and it seems that maybe this weekend isn't going to be so very bad for "Chris" after all. Thing ...
Uncomfortably entertaining! The reason for the aforementioned is that <em>'Get Out'</em> sets up the premise so, so well and you are just waiting for the penny to drop, so all the events leading up to the reveal are very awkward - which only adds to the overall enjoyment in seeing it all unfold onscreen. I've seen Daniel Kaluuya in a few (not as many as I should have by now) films and have a...
Man all you fans are going to be embarrassed once racism is bad again... remember back in the day where we were supposed to judge people by the content of their character and not the color of their skin? That attitude is going to come back, in many cases it never died, and even though the faux progressives are pushing to judge people by their skin color... yeah, people are going to just not be ra...
**An excellent film, which deserves our attention.** I saw this movie yesterday. I've been thinking about it for a while, and yesterday I took the opportunity to do so. I already had a notion that it was a very successful film, and that it was successful at the box office and with specialized critics. For a horror movie, that's pretty good stuff. For my part, I think it's a good film, well abov...
I loved this movie. I can’t express how happy and excited this movie made me for reasons I’ll talk about here… Most haven't seen, but this is what I was talking about yesterday with my review on Brightburn (on Letterboxd). It was a horror movie with a good idea bad bad execution with no plot or character development to help us care about the characters. Get Out is the perfect mix of horror, cha...
The hypnotism aspect changed the tone of the film, even though something menacing was expected all along. The end shriveled into routine gore and gun violence. The racial implications may make some feel guilty. Good enough overall but also overrated. Ms. Williams may be more than another NBC 'talent', time will tell.
**Now you're in the sunken place!** Not all the directional debut sees this kind of welcome from the audience. Yeah, Jordan Peele had written and directed it. It is similar to the 90s style mystery-thrillers. Definitely must see for the 90s, 80s guys. It kind of looked like a black comedy, but I guess that's not they had preferred. Especially that teacup scenes and some of the close up shots, t...
