Get Out (@cmp_moviereviews)

Rating: 9/10 (17 August 2017)

The secret is out. The world now knows that Jordan Peele is not only known for fame in the comedic realm, but also for debuting a very effective thriller. "Get Out" is ultimately effective due to its intriguing premise and crowd pleasing mentality. Comic relief in horror usually falls flat for me, and confuses the tone of the film. Here, it's used very skillfully, and the laugh/thrill mixture is very successful. This directorial debut is a win that is delivered from a very unexpected mind. #getout
