This is an extremely impressive film from Peele. Its smart and knows it-- teasing you along the way of what is to unfold at the film's climax.
The main character is a photographer goes to visit his GF's house and all-white family. Things are not as they appear at first glance, and as the film progresses it becomes even more disturbingly obvious that the family is hiding a secret. As time goes on, cracks begin to form in the sticky sweet facade of pleasantness surrounding the home. Beyond this I can't spoil it, but the third act of this film is very satisfying. I don't think there was any part of this film that overstayed its welcome or felt weak.
The acting performances overall are superb, the cinematography is excellent, and the lighting is also well done.
Please go see this movie if you are into horror/comedy, its worth supporting.
Man all you fans are going to be embarrassed once racism is bad again... remember back in the day where we were supposed to judge people by the content of their character and not the color of their skin? That attitude is going to come back, in many cases it never died, and even though the faux progressives are pushing to judge people by their skin color... yeah, people are going to just not be racist.
This is incredibly racist. It makes a few points.
1) it is anti-miscegenation, the movie is very much against interracial relationships.
2) The movie suggests (like all of his movies) that all white people are not only racist but evil.
3) Deep down all white people want to be Black, the reverse of that joke in Chasing Amy.
And it sort of rolls with that through the duration of the film, the messaging is clear, and what is probably why it has so much praise behind it, it hits the most important political mark: "All white people are evil, they are the source of all evil, they need to be punished for it."
So of course it's "intelligent" anything that blatantly racist is going to be called "intelligent" today.
