If you are a cerebral thinker.. you will enjoy the thriller that is US.

Rating: 9/10 (23 March 2019)

Based on some of these reviews, it seems as if we all watched two different movies... and that may well be the case seeing that there was a movie bout "Us" , the family that meet their doppelgänger family and then there was the other movie called US that was a satirical narrative of America.
Or you may have been a viewer such as myself who was able to see the duelling factions and integrate them into a really well done movie.
If you were hoping to see Get Out II then you will be disappointed. Its not Get Out. There is equal opportunity killing. There were no nods to Get Out other than one lane scene resembled the lane scene in Get Out. Other than that... the two movies were not comparable.
I watched this in a Magic Johnson AMC in Harlem, NY and I was not disappointed. This movie was made for us and we were all engaged laughing at the right moments, scared at the scary parts and yes screaming at the actors to " get in the car , yo!". This was made for us and we understood it. It felt like it was meant for us and the only way I can describe this movie without spoiling it is by saying it was like the Purge, Childish Gambino's This is America and a whole lot of messed up emotions.
The scene where Director Peele takes us from comedic highs to terror depths in one actor's expression was amazing.
He got something out of these actors that I haven't seen in their previous body of work and I appreciate it.
Whoever that little girl is who played the young Mom character.. I never want to meet her in a dark alley. Im just saying.
The political message... you have to find that for yourself but I was satisfied and based on the conversations that I overheard; we all had different theories.
The best movies are the ones that play over and over in your head once the final credits have rolled. This movie will be playing for a while in mine.
