Okay, but over-hyped

Rating: 6/10 (22 July 2017)

Plot wise it's intriguing they've taken the race card, but not original in it's concept (Invasion of The Body Snatchers) anyone?
Daniel Kaluuya & Catherine Keener stood out in their acting as you genuinely believe them all the way through. It's raw.
I felt the directing could of been improved. Take the scene when Georgina poured tea at the table. That whole scene of her standing there for a long time, the awkward staring into the distance and clunky editing.. It was almost forced when it needed to be discreet so only Chris noticed, but the blatant try- hard of the scene made me say, 'really? if this really happened, someone would of seen it'.. Shortening the stare would of made a greater impact.
The music in the revealing of the surgeon room scene was far too 'epic' and made the scene almost comedic. It ruined the 'creepy' undertones.
Finally, the connection or should I say lack there of between Chris & Rose was cardboard. Though, that could be down to the flat script writing between them.
A good film to compare this to is, 'The Invitation' as they follow a similar structure/directing style. BUT, is much more put together than 'GetOut'.
