Dumb movie for a dumbed down audience

Rating: 2/10 (5 December 2019)

7.7, what is WRONG with people these days.
Ok lets get this through. Only writing this review to try and lower a ludicrously high score that'll con people into wasting their time with this idiotic garbage.
PRO : the lead actor is pretty good, not overplaying the whole black guy cliché and probably the only one in the entire crew that gets the meaning of the word "subtlety".
Allright lets get on with the CONS :
this is the most idiotic, heavy handed and predictable movie I've seen in a while. Movies like that are the reason I don't watch movies anymore.
I was foolishly drawn in by the hype and the REALLY HIGH grade on imdb...I saw bad news coming right at the beginning, when we get that close up of the spoon going "tingtingting" (HEY LOOK IDIOTS!! THIS IS GOING TO BE IMPORTANT LATER ON!!). I was aware that the movie revolved around hypnosis, so that shot i found extremely OBVIOUS. BTW : everybody's quite aware that you can't force people who are hypnotized to do acts they wouldn't do in the first place. And as far as I'm concerned, hypnosis is bullcrap, it might work on some people but it didn't work for me, AT ALL. I see a hypnotherapist and she tried it on me 3 times. She couldn't even make me raise my arm, and even though i was doing my best to do what I was told in order for it to work, she gave up after 3 tries because it really, really didn't work on me. But enough with my personal experience, and enough of common sense (you won't be getting a lot of that in this idiotic trash).
Let's tear through this insult to intelligence. As said above this movie is EXTREMELY predictable, you see everything coming from a mile away (safe for the deer at the start). The director HAMMERS in clues and it really feels like he thinks your an idiot that needs to smacked in the face in order for you to get things. "OK, I GET IT" is a sentence that popped in my mind at least 5 times in this film. Peele thinks he's being so subtle and unconscious that he needs to make things that should have stayed implied REALLY OBVIOUS. In other words, he thinks his audience are clueless. I hate when directors treat audiences like moronic children; it's disrespectful and an insult to intelligence. I don't think he was doing it on purpose though, Jordan Peele is just a superficial moron that thinks he's much smarter than he really is. OK enough of that.
I have to say this, get it off my chest : the lead might be good, but OH LORD was that redheaded moron playing jeremy annoying. He redefines overacting, he made me think of an edgelord version of early Brad Pitt. Someone get this dude out of the movie industry. And how did Cathereen Keener end up in this garbage?? I'd rather think she did it for the check then have her lose points in my esteem.
I could go on and on about everything I predicted correctly in this movie ("she's gonna use that sound to hypnotize him -bingo; he's gonna get jumped in 3, 2,1 -bingo; TV's gonna turn on -bingo; he's not really dead -bingo; she's gonna wake up and strangle him -bingo, etc etc etc), but the most annoying part of this movie is its sheer idiocy. White racist people are jealous of black guys because SOME OF THEM are physically better built? GTFOutta here. A TSA agent has a cop car and a badge? GTFOutta here. I'm trying to remebember all the stupid, borderline offensive things this movie through at my face but I can't be bothered.
Stupid movie made by a very stupid person (and for a black guy, jordan peele's really full of racist clichés) that's thinks he's waaaay smarter than he really is. But hey : look at the IMDB score : he might be just right, problem is he's smarter than the morons who gave this POS more than 5, but that doesn't prove anything, given the average MINDLESSNESS the web is teeming with.
Stupid movie made by a stupid guy for a stupid audience. Absolutely terrible, and the worst part of it is I'm going to be EVEN MORE CAREFULL with internet ratings from now on. F you jordan peele, you stupid moron, go back to black clansman and stop treeting your audience like they were 12 years old.
I had more fun writing this review than watching the film, enough said.
