Review of Get Out (2017) by Thinker T — 25 Jan 2018
Heard such marvelous things of this film..I am moderately disappointed and very much confused. The first 3/4 of the movie was quite good, clever, immensely suspenseful. I have issues with hair-pulling and by the end credits I had a decent amount of hair on my bed sheet (sorry, TMI)? Anyway, truly good buildup, perplexing plot advanced expertly by decent casting.
But wow, such a disappointing ending. No ending at all! It was as if they had spent way too much time putting together the first hour and half of the film and the deadline was approaching, so they slopped together some overly-simplified bland, gory conclusion which did not at all compliment the beautifully complex and layered work from the beginning.
The ending made the whole film feel like a sub-par Black Mirror episode. Would likely not watch again. Why anyone is saying this is due for all kinds of awards, I have no idea!
