Not bad but odd indeed. Keep em coming Mr. Peele

Rating: 7/10 (26 November 2019)

I honestly love how ambitious this was. Some holes in a story this fantastic are inevitable but I just went with it and thought COOL. It is a fiction horror film guys. Logic doesnt need to tie every end up just to make the fantastic seem possible. So thats for those saying all the 'why didnt this happen' i enjoyed the performances and was indeed scared for awhile and stayed interested to the end. Like The Uninvited on Netflix this is still cool but not realistic. Movies of this type require some dismissal of logic. Maybe the whole speech by Red was too weird for some. I enjoyed this weird down the rabbit hole idea and love films this crazy. Tethered is NOT the new sunken place. This is not meant to be a sequel to the brilliant dark comedy of Get Out which had enough realism in the racist overtones to be digested but was also pretty far fetched! I get some didnt find this funny, maybe watch it again. ALSO: Not all large black guys fight or use violence as some suggested the dad was a weak ass man. Maybe he never had to fight before as his size suggests he would win against most, maybe just not a copy of himself who happens to be ok with KILLING etc, I feel like Jordon Peele is getting the M. NIGHT treatment. Please dont do that. People may not have got what they expected but I think the director got what he did expect: Lots of critical comments by those with pre-conceived ideas of what the film should have been; some political message concealed in the story. (Which I assume are many some more overt than others.) I look forward to his next films and recommend people see this and enjoy. I will watch it again with my millennial daughter. See her take it.
