Peele's follow up is a creepy good time

Rating: 8/10 (25 March 2019)

After "Get Out" a few years ago, we all we excited to see what talented filmaker Jordan Peele would conjure up next....and he doesn't disappoint.
We are given "Us". A family goes to the beach for a trip and are soon accousted by a group of doppelgangers that resemble themselves. Lupita Nyong'o (the worrysome mother with a tragic memory from her youth about the nearby boardwalk) , Winston Duke ( the loose father who provides welcome if sometimes unnecessary humor), Shahadi Wright Joseph (very talented young teen actress) and Evan Alex (pyro mask wearing young son) also play their opposite selves , mostly mute. Lupita proves again that she is an immense talent.
The true star of the show is Peele. I see alot of Kubrick and Hitchcock as Peele uses music and light to set the tense creepy mood. His use of Luniz "I got five on it" and especially"Good Vibrations" is so good. You can see alot of Easter eggs throughout the movie (Jaws t-shirt, vhs of C.H.U.D.) , some are more of clues than eggs. I cannot wait for what he gives us next.
I didn't want to give anything away as there are a lot of surprises along the way.
This is a thinking man's horror for sure. I myself pondered on it for days after. See it, spread the word.
