Us
audience Reviews
, 60% Audience Score- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsAn absolute masterpiece of cinema, Jordan Peele's Us is further proof that he knows horror better than most directors. With breathtakingly terrifying performances (Lupita Nyongo's in general is chilling) that completely parallel each other, a haunting musical score and cinematography that will chill your blood Us is a must see for fans of Get Out and slow burn thrillers.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsExcellent movie. It showed themes of classism and one of my favorite movies of all time.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 starsWhat a lost of time. The script is nonsensical, the twist could be seen coming since the start, the behaviour of the main character isn't logical, the social critique was lost on me, the overacting annoying and the humour out of place. I watched the movie and only later saw the reviews. I truly can't understand the positive reviews nor the commercial success
- Rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsThis movie gives me creeps but it's a good movie. I recommend it to watch with family or friends.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsA great parable/allegory thriller movie about the exaggerated non-existent ideal American dream being dead and how most of that is contributed to consumerism and fictitious ideas. weird, bizarre, funny, intense emotional scenes, action, Incredible soundtrack. not for everyone but fun will be had for those who seek it. P.S. I know I said Thriller instead of Horror because I enjoy it more as a thriller movie.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 starsIt starts promising with an interesting premise, but the mid-point has me in thorough disbelief of the plot. It isn't until the end that a proper motive is revealed, and by then I already find the general concept of the "underground" to be silly.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 starsThe ideas were grand but the execution was not. it lacked a necessary cohesiveness. the "horror" characters were laughable... at them, not with.. how dare they make me feel that way with Lupita in the room. This one should've sat on the back burner a little longer.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsI hear a lot of people saying this movie is way weaker than Jordan Peele's "Get Out," and also "Nope." While I can't say I like Us as much as Nope, I think I enjoy it a little more than Get Out. Get Out had better symbolism and a better atmosphere, as well as a phenomenal mystery. But Us has better pacing, acting, music, effects, characters, comedy, etc. Not saying Get Out is bad, that movie is also a 10/10, but Us is very, very good. It may portray it's messages in a pretty weak and underdeveloped way and it has potholes, but that doesn't weaken the impact of the characters and comedy, I also absolutely love the tethered, they're such great villains. It feels like just as much effort was put into Us as Peele's other films, definitley worth a watch
- Rating: 3.5 out of 5 starsAfter seeing his second(!) feature film, I can now confidently say that I will watch every movie Jordan Peele will make. I didn't love "Us" but I can already feel it growing on me. As with "Get Out" you can enjoy "Us" as a creepy home invasion thriller, a dark comedy, a sci-fi horror flick, or a social commentary. You can also think about different theories, no matter how crazy they get, and rewatch and enjoy this movie. And I think that's its biggest quality and what Peele does best: Making enjoyable movies in the first place that can also be analyzed and discussed but don't loose anything by doing so. Also: great score, Lupita Nyong'o is fantastic, the kids are really good, cinematography and set design is precise. Oh, and I don't quite get the Shyamalan comparisons because with Peele, you'll get a good movie regardless of the believability (etc.) of the twist.
