Us *
A family's serenity turns to chaos when a group of doppelgängers begin to terrorize them.
As someone who felt that Peele’s previous, widely overvalued debut film was a tremendously clever allegory and not much else, the declarative obviousness and clumsily scattered nature of his sophomore effort comes as less of a curiosity to me as it will to others. Like before, some thematic ideas are amusing and the cast is supreme (particularly Nyong'o and Moss) but there’s little here – in both staging and writing – that distinguishes his films from all the other awkwardly overt modern-day scarefests.
