THE GIST: Rose takes her boyfriend Chris to meet her parents. He's uneasy because he's Black and Rose is White, but her parents seem very welcoming to him. During a party thrown by the parents during the same weekend they're visiting, Chris meets several of the family's friends, whose behavior and questions directed at him become more and more outlandish. What could possibly be going on here?Get Out is Jordan Peele's directorial debut and it can only be described as a smashing success. He also wrote the script for it, positioning himself as one of the most talented creators working in movies right now, especially in the light-horror genre.
He followed this film with the equally successful Us, so his talent is not accident.
Daniel Kaluuya stars, flanked by Allison Williams, Catherine Keener, Bradley Whitford, Caleb Landry Jones, Betty Gabriel, and LaKeith Stanfield; everyone turns in a great performance.
THE BOTTOM LINE: A brilliant tale from one of the most promising new filmmakers on the scene right now. What are you waiting for?
