Review of Us (2019) by Sethstuart — 23 Apr 2019
Jordan Peele often walks a tight rope between having something to say and pretension, and I am not sure this film is as balanced between the two as he had intended. That being said, Us is meticulously crafted and touts a fantastic performance from Lupita Nyong'o.
It’s layered with commentary on class-ism and race but is nowhere near as prevalent as Peele’s other work (Get Out). This is not a horror movie. Don’t let the marketing fool you.
