Falling into the Sunken Place

Rating: 10/10 (4 March 2019)

**** SPOLIER'S AHEAD ****
Get Out was arguably one of the best films of 2017. This is due to how magnificently it was directed and how artistically all the actors portrayed how racism is deeply ingrained in people. The film was at first painted to be a weekend away for Rose (Allison Williams) and her African American Boyfriend Chris (Daniel Kaluuya). On this weekend getaway to Rose's parents' home, Chris quickly realized something was a little off about the family. His suspicions kept growing and growing until he found a box in Rose's old room of all the African American boyfriend's she had had in the past. This is when the film took a turn for the worst and became the most amazingly directed horror film I have ever encountered! Rose's family had captured Chris and were trying to switch his brain with that of an elderly friends so that they could control Chris and use his body. The way that the cast and director executed these following scenes was both artistically beautiful and dictatorially mind blowing. Between director Jordan Peele using many different camera angles such as in scenes like when Chris was hypnotized by Roses mother Missy (Catherine Keener) where Chris was falling into the sunken place. here Peele uses high and low angles to show the dominance of Missy over Chris in this scene and through out the entire movie. Another instance of the amazing artistry going into this film is in the final scenes where Chris is escaping, and all was being revealed to those watching so intently. This section of the film had all rooting for Chris and his escape even though road block after road block were thrown at him. Seeing his escape and his best friend come to the rescue was an amazing ending to a fantastic film. I 100% recommend this film to everyone and will continue doing so until the end of time.
