Why it’s HorroRated
Us is a film about doppelgangers that uses the premise to say something about America and class and the violence underneath prosperity. Jordan Peele's direction is confident and the tethered sequences are visually inventive. Lupita Nyong'o's dual performance is one of the decade's great horror achievements. A film with real ambitions that delivers on most of them.
Synopsis
Jordan Peele's second feature operates simultaneously as home invasion thriller and social horror. The choreography of the tethered sequences is among the decade's more striking horror imagery and Lupita Nyong'o carries the film on two very different performances. A film with real ambitions that delivers on most of them.
