Get Out Review

Rating: 9/10 (4 March 2019)

WARNING: SPOILER ALERT
Get Out was like no other movie I have seen before. This is why I think that it is so special and received so much critical acclaim. The beautiful setting and eerie quietness clash together to give you the sense that something is not right.
First, the story line was great for a horror movie, usually horror movies give you a bit of a freight that lasts for a bit but then subsides. Great horror movies are the ones that stay with you for a long time no matter how hard you try and forget about it. I think one of the scariest parts of the movies is when the party of white people are auctioning off Chris. You thought that slavery is abolished and humans have there own free rights but right in front of you an auction for a person is happening, and they are all okay with it. Another thing that I took away from this movie is that fact that no matter how much you know someone, you can never really know who they are or what they are thinking. This is incredibly freighting and is shown in the movie when Chris finds out he is just another guy that Rose has managed to trick. If you are a fan of The Stepford Wives or Rosemarys Baby then you would like this movie due to the fact that Jordan Peele pays some homage to them. From the 'robotic' like brainwashed slaves to the Armitige cult that seem to have no limits. Overall Get Out was not just a great horror film but a great movie in general that is very controversial and thought provoking if you are willing to look deeper.
