It's Okay to Not Have Explanation. It Works!

Rating: 8/10 (27 March 2019)

Why? How? You won't know... but, that's what makes this an eye opener until the very end. Us does not give you any scientific background as to the reason why this family is being held captive and teased by themselves. The directing, is fantastic. Every shot is thought out in its own beautiful way. He is not afraid of getting weird with dialogue, music, shots, movement, and humor. He commits to all of it and it really works well. If you enjoyed Get Out, you will enjoy this. Some people have been complaining about a reveal that is happening half way through the movie. I do wish the threat would have stayed a little more personalized to the family, but again, Peele makes it work. If you like horror inspired by The Shining, Jaws, Scream, and the Strangers, you'll love this one.
