Title: Jordon Peale’s Us
Post by: Slik on March 17, 2019, 02:37:03 PM
100% on rotten tomatoes. Is it really a perfect movie or is it more virtue signaling?

Not sure what virtue signaling is.I think it’s blacks realizing that blacks biggest enemy is themselves.Might mean what you said as I have no clue.

Good movie. This one and "Get Out" have together forged a brand new genre.

Saw it Friday at 7:30 and yesterday at 8:30.

Wanted to watch it again to see if I could pick up on any clues or hints in regards the suprise at the ending that I had missed the first time around.

That actually looks pretty damn good.  If this is an original black casted movie without an anti-white agenda it should do very well with all audiences, and maybe Hollyweird will start to get it finally :-\

Us and Them. (Hebreic Review)

The rich and the poor.

The wealthy and the impoverished.

The ones and the others.

The people and the puppets.

The living and their shadows.

Us is the second movie directed by the highly-respected Jordan Peele, who made "Get Out" 2 years ago.
This horror film manages to do so many things in its limited runtime.
It succeeds at being a fun, scary an entertaining ride without losing its social and political themes.

The film talks about discriminations and class differences in a fresh and exciting way and proves that such social problems are still present.
We have our luxurious houses, our well-cooked meals, our comfortable lifestyles and because of our easiness we tend to forget about "Them", the ones who suffer, who are in pain or the ones who help and try but never get a reward.
"Us" is parltly about all these intriguing themes, but never forgets that it is also a film and a dark and fun experience and not just a politically driven story.

Its nicely shot, some of the shots actually have hidden meanings and clues or the development of the story.
The acting is spot on, with Lupita playing 2 really demanding roles giving her most shocking performance yet.
The soundtrack is great and some of the songs are used a contrast to the events of the film and make for a good laugh.
The movie has its humor too, but sometimes I felt that it was too much with it.

The script is really one of a kind. It might not be 100% original, but it is presented in such a way that the point it tries to make are clear while being such a good cinematic experience. It is of a bigger scale and has a lot of plot points that are clever.

Now, the bads. Firstly, like most films of its genre, it has a bunch of forced moments and some characters take really stupid decisions.

Sometimes, during the 2nd act, it loses its weight as a story and has a lot of ups and downs in its tone.

One joke comes after the other and I kind of forgot that I was watching a horror film.

And the twist in the end is sooooooooooooooooo predictable and I'm still not sure if it is really important.

They could have just go for something more ambiguous or give a hint or something.

But, overall that's a good horror-social commentary-comedy worthy of Goodrumesque praise.

Jordan Peele makes his own kind of movies and tries to explore and talk about global and "US " issues in startling, new ways.

Even if I'm not sure if "Us" and "Get Out" belong in the same universe, they are great and significant films and deserve your attention of Peace if you're Hebreic.

What fresh and unique topics for a Hollywood movie.  Discrimination, class differences and social problems.  Wow.  Who would have ever thought?
 
You know, for 5 minutes I almost forgot how pissed off and resentful minorities were.  I'm so thankful this movie was made to remind me.

I have no problem with this just as it shouldn't be a problem for a white director to say that he doesn't want to cast a black dude as the lead in his movie.

That's the problem, blacks are free to be honest and say what they please while whites are forced to kiss ass and pander to blacks.....or else they are literally Hitler.

All I ask is that we all play by the same rules, which I thought was the point of the civil rights movement.

And by the way, I agree wholeheartedly with what P4W said about the director saying he wants a black lead.  It's his fucking film!

No director should be FORCED to use actors they don't want/need, be it female/male/white/black/red/asian etc

Should be your right as a director to not HAVE to hire a black or white lead just because.

Only difference is that he is allowed to say it (without any reaction), but if a white director would say that he would not hire a black lead, imagine the outcry! :D

Exactly, it's the double standard.  I actually like blacks coming out and admitting this stuff openly as the race card is now becoming more and more weak by the day.

It was okay, not 99% like RT had it though. The ending seemed a bit rushed like it was edited out too much at the end of the movie, making the underlying premise of the story a bit cloudy and not in a good way. Cinematography and acting was very good for the genre.

At least it's not another Spike Lee joint.

What are the ticket prices in your local?

Afternoon price here in LV .... As low as $3 to $5.

Even if there are only a half dozen or so  people in the huge theater, you have to choose your seat when you pay for yor ticket.

I cheat a lot when that's a requirement.

Evening prices .... $4 to $6 higher. Almost always a full house.

All theaters here in LV are pretty damn classy but I have attended movies in the LA area where tickets were $19 and you could spend $35+ while 'fine' dining in your reclining rocker  during the movie.

How many of youse GetBiggers pay for one ticket and cheat by entering more than one screening?

I don't cheat in that regards.

Family members who are in the movie biz did not like "US", but based on some of these posted comments, I'll go see it anyway.

Looking foreward to seeing "SHAZAM" which most of youse GeBiggers may not know ... was the original Capt. Marvel.

An interesting story there ....

And also Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. All about the time that I was involved .... And to make in BB related ... So was Draper and Scott and a whole other ton or so of bulky blunders.

And Bill Smith and other wild west stunt guys who cound never be referred to as a 'bulky blunder'.

And the kid and my original mentor from my neighborhood who became the original motion picture "HERC" may not be mentioned... die to his envolvement much earlier than this Hollywood timeline.

I'll be commenting on how accurate this movie is ..... As I was involved within all the good shit and honestly avoided the bad shit that I only heard about   .. unless I started it myself.

Each year in the USA, around 50% of all homicides in the USA are committed by young Black males who are 3.5% of the American population, yet somehow White people keep getting dragged into this discussion when young Black males commit more murder [and muggings, rape, and overall violence] THAN EVERY OTHER RACIAL GROUP IN THE USA COMBINED.

Fuck.

How is it even possible we are having this sort of discussion?  White people are innocent bystanders to this shit.  Does anyone think if every Black person left the USA tomorrow that anyone would give a fuck?  What would happen other than the USA getting better on virtually every measure?

I keep forgetting all those societies that got its Black population up to 15% and said "Look how much safer and better we are now, and look at how our rape and murder rate just declined massively."

 ::) ::) ::)

Are there SERIOUSLY still Caucasians saying that diversity is a strength?  It just goes to show how intelligent Jews are to use their media power to brainwash dumb-fuck Caucasians like this.

Anyway, take Chicago for example - every Fourth of July, they have like 87 people getting shot, and then The Young Turks runs a show for a week about the ONE White cop who shoots an armed Black male.

But please - tell me more how the West is soooo much better as we import a massive third world population, as per Jewish media programming.  ::)

Can we please stop with this "Diversity is our strength" shit?!  It's literally the worst thing to happen to the West!

If your goal is to make rape and murder go up, then yeah, it's been awesome.

Maybe it depends on your metric for "progress".  ::)

i saw pet sematary last night, it's better written than the original but i think it lacked the overall creep factor that the original had, but i enjoyed it overall and liked it more than Us

maybe i wasn't paying attention enough but i missed the "white guilt" part the critic wrote about, it's definitely worth a watch

E
