Agreed. US just fell victim to following up a modern day classic. It’s a 8/10 for me. The only thing I wish is he made the twist supernatural rather than the science explanation.Get Out in my opinion is a PERFECT movie. There’s literally not a thing i’d change about it.
US was excellent. I think in time it may be looked at like how Nas’s It Was Written is. A classic when people look back at it. In a lot of ways its a slicker and more polished film than Get Out, but it needed just a LITTTLLLLLLEEEEEE more “sauce” on the ending to make it an instant classic. I know Peele was going for an open ended more ambiguous conclusion (and maybe setting the stage for sequels) but it didn’t QUITE have that “punch”’ to it that Get Out did. Still Lupita gave a powerhouse performance and that fight scene between her and her other self at the climax should be studied in film schools.
