Review of Us (2019) by The3Academysins — 24 Mar 2019
A worthy and fresh follow up to Get Out, Jordan Peele's second film perfectly blends arthouse commentary and suspenseful horror into an incredibly enjoyable and surprisingly funny movie. I think there are a lot of scenes, images, and lines that have the potential to become iconic horror fare.
The script, while in my own opinion not as robust as the script of Get Out, is layered and sporadically funny. The acting is great, particularly the performance of Lupita Nyong'o. The soundtrack is also phenomenal.
There are a few weak storytelling elements and some ideas that aren't fully fleshed out or presented, but nevertheless, this is a great horror movie that I definitely recommend.
