Us is a phenomenal horror

Rating: 9/10 (24 March 2019)

First off I've been anticipating this movie for months ever since the trailer dropped because I thought get out was a great thriller and overall had a great plot and the originality of that film felt real. So this one was high on my list of movies to see in 2019. And I experienced one of the best films ever. Now there will be spoilers from now on.

First off just to get this out of the way the cinematography and score was amazing. Second off the directing and screenplay from Jordan peels was amazing couldn't of done a better job. Third off the homages from classic horror movies and 80s and 90s nostalgia was amazing for example when the Tyler's tethered arrived and the twins died the shining reference was very there and that feels good when you know a director knows his horror movies and examples of the homages come from such as nightmare on elm street,chud and such more. Also a side note the micheal Jackson and hands across America was amazing and the classic 90s hip hop was great. Fourth off the twist started feeling more real towards the end when Adelaide killed red you could tell she was showing tether traits. But the twist was still surprising because at first I was thinking she was just happy because she knew the threat was out of the way since she has been traumatized as a child but really she was a tether. Fifth off Gabe's humor brought light to the film and I appreciate that because it would've been a dark film over all if Gabe wasn't humorous. Sixth off I loved how I left the theater with many questions surrounding the ending on what to think and how this film is meant to make you think. Last thing I found this film very creepy and there was a jump scare here and there but overall that's what I look forward too in movies

The very few negatives
-I felt as some moments where very humorous when you can tell it was meant to be serious
-I couldn't tell if Gabe's clone was meant to be humorous as well or if he was being serious with all that moaning
-I would've loved more from Zora but I felt as if the film mainly surrounded around the other three.

Final verdict- this film was very enjoyable with very few flaws and I hope Jordan peels can surprise us with more films like the last two and let me say us does not disappoint
