Review of Get Out (2017) by Walter Y — 07 Jul 2017
While the premise is quality and the on-screen chemistry between Daniel Kaluuya and Allison Williams was great - the movie fell a bit flat for me. The writing could have gone in a number of different creative directions and the final script was not the best choice. Especially since it didn't get the most out of the Kaluuya and Williams chemistry.
I left the movie without feeling the overall scope of the difficulty with inter racial dating in the United States. Which could have been a terrific arc, especially with the political leanings of Rose's (Allison Williams) father. Instead the movie turned into a basic thriller afterwards. While the social aspects were definitely appreciated, the movie could have done far more.
The overall acting was good, the music was fine, and there weren't any major editing flaws. However, I was expecting far more from this film.
Star Rating: 3/5.
Number Rating: 6.2/10.
