This is the single most overrated film I've ever seen. Garbage from start to finish. Not scary one time, plagued by the character stupidity every shitty horror movie has, painful acting, a "story" with holes a truck could drive through, and a twist anyone with a brain saw coming within the first 10 minutes.
Can someone help me understand why this is so critically acclaimed? I know popular=/=good, but I've never felt so far from popular opinion on a film than this one.
Is it though? It doesn't seem to be as revered as Get Out.
i hate nigger movie, doesnt contribute nor challenge my intelligent. this movie is very same of any c rated movie like steven seagel but filled with black skin and way gloomy white cornea eyes
Why is Hollywood shoving this mulatto hack down our throats anyway?
It's not. Get Out was legit thrillerkino. This shit's just disappointing.
Jordan Peele may be after all just a one hit wonder.
Peele is good at making movies that are essentially two hour trailers with "unsettling" imagery and surface level thematics (that he only explores far enough to impress mindless nigs and the middle-class college "educated" white girls who jerk off everything nigs like just to show they're Not Racist)
>thrillerkino
>horror comedy that is neither scary or funny
?
watch more movies
Us was OK but the commentary was somewhat muddled
Don't think there was any commentary.
It was good because it acknowledged traditional horror/thriller tropes and then found new ways around them. The same way Us sucks because it tripled down on tropes until it's a parody of itself.
Allusion and foreshadowing are big, I get that, connecting to previous parts of your film can make for interesting moments, but every single thing said and done in this movie was meant to be allegorical to itself to the point it was nauseating. If you've watched 10 horror movies, you can recognize those moments of "Oh, that's going to be important later." But when you have that thought literally every time something comes out of someones mouth it's just obnoxious because you're waiting for the moment for it to be relevant which subdues it's payoff considerably.
What commentary
I think he's more than capable, he could make great horror, the problem is trying to include some allegory for racism or some shit. It worked for get out but two movies in a row with this same shtick is retarded.
>it really needs to be added twice in the basedhorror chart, this movie was so immensely bad and just terrible. I don't even know where to start with critiquing it, it's just bad in every way. It's like Hereditary without cool deaths or family drama so it has literally nothing going for it. Also why the fuck does she speak like some fucking ghost, WHY DOES SHE TALK LIKE THAT. Garbage film that manages to be even worse than hereditary.
I don't even understand what the allegory was supposed to be in this one. Like, what the fuck was the underground supposed to represent? Besides the fact we're supposed to buy that whole retarded concept, what is it supposed to relate to? It just felt like a LONG way to go for no real payoff, not to mention the army is just going to mow them all down.
He is a one hit wonder. Us and Twilight Zone make that obvious. He fell off faster than M. Knight Shyamalan.
I tried watching it yesterday and i coudn't finish, i was dozing off.
saw this last week. Came in way too hyped because Get Out was great. US was painful to watch. Plot holes everywhere. No dialogue. Unfortunately normie SJW bought it up and so I bet he gets a sequel.
The Broken did the doppleganger thing better anyways.
This was my biggest issue with it. I can forgive people in thrillers being pants on head retarded pussies, I can even try to convince myself that scissors are scary, but when every single thing on screen is obviously important to the plot it dissolves suspension of disbelief entirely, which is kind of important in this kind of flick.
I don't think I will ever see a republican post without grammar errors
Yes that movie was garbage
This was really good
