Disappointing ending

Rating: 6/10 (25 March 2019)

The film can be roughly divided into 3 parts: 1) A presentation of the protagonists. 2) A very, very, very! close encounter of the third kind with doppelgÃ¤ngers. 3) An explanatory conclusion. The first two parts are rather successful, but the third one turns the film into a disappointing post-GetOut entertainment.
Pros: 1) The whole cast is excellent; in particular, Elisabeth Moss and Lupita Nyong'o are both amazing. 2) Sequences of dark and wacky humor ('Call the police' for instance with Kitty Tyler, the alcoholic blonde). 3) The photography and the aesthetics.
Cons: although the script is innovative and 'looks' smart, did I get goose bumps ? Definitely not ! Why ? I spent my time complaining against the flaws and the plot holes; thus, the script seems unfinished and/or big-headed. The last scene is pathologically cheesy and retroactively gives to the audience a new look at the movie, with a global picture which is desperately and painfully moronic. I even almost cried of despair during the very final scene that I imagine with a French song of Sheila, L'Ã©cole est finie (1963): "Donne-moi ta main et prends la mienne. La cloche a sonnÃ©, Ã§a signifie: la rue est Ã nous, que la joie vienne. Mais oui, Mais oui, l'Ã©cole est finie". Left to be pathetic, it is better to be thoroughly pathetic.
As a synthesis, 5/6 of 10, because of a big-headed scripting, Jordan Peele having invented a new concept with the "pop-corn 'n horror" movies, i.e. turn your brain off and then, be scared.
