Will be one of the best movies in 2019

Rating: 10/10 (31 March 2019)

First of all, Jordan Peele knocked it out of the park with this film. He directed, wrote, and produced this film. With every scene, he directed it to perfection so you knew what was happening to this family and what to feel. This wouldn't be possible unless the actors did their job to the best of their abilities and easily they did. Once the invaders come into their house and the tension grows that is when some of their best acting comes out. They make you sympathize with them and want them to survive. The one person who stood out the most to me though was Lupita Nyong'o mainly because she is the main one you follow throughout the film. But she easily stole the whole film from beginning to end. Even the kid actors, Shahadi Wright Joseph, and Evan Alex did outstanding jobs and I hope they will go far with their careers. The music in this film also helped set the tone and mood in specific scenes. Every time the music started you automatically knew that something was going to happen. This film is already one hour and fifty-six minutes and it doesn't feel like it one bit. The movie flows really well from scene to scene and you can easily understand what is happening without knowing what's coming up next. I have to mention that the cinematography, especially in the scene where you don't know yet that the people are them, is really well done. This film isn't perfect but most of my problems are spoilers so I won't mention them but they are minor and still don't take away from how great of a film this is. In the end, Us is a great time for anybody whether you like horror movies or not, especially because I would classify it as a thriller. I highly recommend checking this film out.
