Us

Time for another brief film review - I watched the 2019 horror film Us last night.  Written and directed by Jordan Peele, the same person behind the critically acclaimed Get Out.  And this is very much in the same vein.  I'm on record as not being a big fan of Get Out, contrary to popular opinion.  And I feel similarly ambivalent about Us - had some good ideas, but tonally was all over the place and just felt too contrived.  There was probably a good movie hidden under the horror cliches, but this just wasn't for me.  2 stars.
