Clever social thriller

Rating: 8/10 (8 May 2019)

Get out has been heavily praised from both critics and audiences since its release in 2017. Described by some as horror film, it isn't quite as such but so more a social thriller. After having watching, concludes that the film does live up to the hype as the film's tone is great from the beginning and there is enough interesting material which makes Get Out highly intriguing and entertaining.
The twist with the girlfriend being in in the scheme to take hostage of the lead was somewhat predictable, but the further twist in the very end was clever. What also makes the film better is the stand out performance from Daniel Kayuula as he takes an innocent character and is likable and easy to root for.
