  People absolutely panned this flick for its unrealistic narrative. It's one of my favorites. If you just let this movie exist in its own sphere and stop trying to apply logic to it it's such a joy to watch. The climax just brutalizes my heart. Never seen Body & Soul, going to take a look.

    Yeah it’s a good flick with a neat idea he explored. It’s not a documentary.

    I think I loved the idea of the story, bizarre surreal tales are usually my favourite, but the execution fell a bit flat. I like that there are a bunch of doppelgängers hanging around in tunnels/caves underground, I like that they eventually came to the surface, I don’t really care much for the mirrored personality traits (it felt like it tried to nail too many plot points into one whereas it should have been just a simple revenge tale), I feel like director peele really nailed his message in get out, but with us, I feel like he missed the mark completely. A very original movie but hard to live up to get out.
