Not funny, not scary, plot is idiotic, it beats you over the head with the race themes that are totally unrealistic.

Rating: 1/10 (27 August 2017)

In the movie white people go out of their way to try to show the black main character how "unracist" they are by constantly saying things like "I would have voted for Obama a 3rd time if I could, best president ever". This in a nutshell is why this movie is universally well received by critics. If a movie has racial themes white critics go out of their way to say how amazing it is, and sometimes the movie is actually amazing, but here it's nothing more than white guilt. The movie is so lacking is subtlety when it comes to it's race themes that it induces eye rolling, and it depicts a society so uncomfortable with black people that its a wonder they can even co-exist. It's as if the movie has an agenda that it has to constantly point out. The premise is too idiotic for even a horror movie, and I could forgive these things easily if it were the least bit scary, tense or funny. If these critics reviews are genuine and not a self conscious reflection of their views on race than I fear that society has become dumbed down to the point where Stephenie Meyer is considered Shakespeare and Get Out is considered To Kill A Mockingbird.
