After watching US, I'm beginning to think that Jordan Peele's genius is a bit like the emperor's new clothes. Simply put, Us was not scary, was not funny, was not interesting. Lupita Nyong'o's voice not creepy - talking like you have laryngitis is not scary, it's distracting and I missed a lot of what she said. And, yeah - there's a twist ending, but at that point I didn't care.
I love horror movies and there were so many great horror movies that came out in 2019: Midsommar, It: Chapter2, Crawl, Child's Play, Ready or Not, Little Monsters (starring Lupita Nyong'o!), Haunt, Sweetheart - hell, even the Banana Splits movie was better than Us. Watch one of those.
I just don't understand the hype and praise for this movie...
