Great production quality, horrible and nonsensical plot

Rating: 4/10 (7 April 2019)

Get Out was a masterpiece. It had a very, very original plot and great use of tension. Us howerer lacks both of these. First of all, when you watch a movie that gives you a very hard question to answer in a logical, in the movie's world, way you should be given some clues from time to time to release the tension of not knowing what is going on even in the slightest. This movie holds that tension for a good hour or so. But that would be okay if there was anything plot-revealing going on during that time. Instead you are given a long chase with no plot advancement. This truly was holdong me on such tension, because I was waiting the whole time for something, anything, that would shed some light on the mystery. And in the end, when I was sure this plot cannot make any sense at this point, the movie did the laziest thing it could when it comes to explaining the whole plot and to make the matters worse the big reveal was aaaaaabsolutely dumb and made very little sense. In the end the movie decides that it will tear it's skin, muscles and organs off, throw it all into a river and say, while showing you it's bare bones: "Acculy, am art and symbolic". No. No you're not. Your artism is weak and symbols make no sense, because putting symbols for the sake of putting symbols is not how putting symbols into a piece off art works. Us is a very sad dissapointment, because the whole production quality - the acting, the dialogues, the camerawork, the music - is incredible. It's a shame that the plot is so poorly thought out.
