Drive by

Rating: 7/10 (23 May 2019)

Just saw 'Us' and felt, with the acting and the filming etc it could have been an amazing film, but it just wasn't constructed properly. It's almost like there was a concept but it was rushed. Unlike 'get out' which was so iconic people still talk about the 'sunken place', this film was so close to being amazing, but drove past it.
Worth watching, and some beautiful scenes, but the scenes don't tie in well enough to the film.. the build up to critical moments just doesn't exist. In a way, I wonder of this had been a series of 12 episodes, it would have been a much better tale. As it is, it's an ok movie with some interesting but mostly messy and unthreaded metaphors.
