Good but I was expecting so much more

Rating: 6/10 (23 March 2019)

Us was an incredibly original and awesome movie, but I personally thought it was going to be a lot deeper and dramatic based upon what the trailer showed. Instead, we got a wacky and weird sci-fi subplot that was fairly predictable by the second act. Yeah, it was a really cool movie with awesome twists but I was expecting a deep and disturbing film focusing specifically on the family and their doubles, and the creepy duality of it all. Unfortunately, that didn't last long and instead we were treated to an exciting yet pretty off the wall and virtually frightless genre film. It's a good film, but it was very misleading.
