This film had so many flaws and so much nonsense that it would be hard to even know where to begin. I watched based on the good reviews. So, not my bad. Your bad! You know who you are! :o)

What the @#$% was that I just watched? The first 2/3 of the film was a Lifetime interracial romance and the final third was all M Night S'lan! Deceptively pitched as a horror film, it was a mostly boring mystery - not thriller - mystery. Jordan Peele ("Key and Peele"), who wrote/directed, got to live out his racial-retribution fantasy, good for him, but it's disgusting racism just the same. And no it's not satire, but anti-white racism, what is wrong with you people?! This should be shamed and pilloried not glorified. Again, what is WRONG with you?!… Expand

The film had a lot to say, and a highly pertinent and important agenda, but it was hokey and clunky in its delivery. The dialogue is disgracefully ugly, most of the characters are thinly written and generally unlikable, and the narrative and themes critics are calling "subversive" and "satirical" are too conspicuous and on the nose to convey the sort of subtlety that marks great films of the genre. This movie is well shot, well acted, and bares a solid last 20 minutes. Otherwise, it's complete and utter garbage that only takes low hanging fruit at the expense of its, again, very important message. Very confused by the critics' response on this one.… Expand

"get out" was a movie which critics with the usual "don't watch it alone!" sentence. but should u take that advice seriously?
the script was not good at all you could understand it from the opening sequence when the black guy say what ever"get out" was a movie which critics with the usual "don't watch it alone!" sentence. but should u take that advice seriously?
the script was not good at all you could understand it from the opening sequence when the black guy say what ever he's doin! and there are a lot of wholes in it like why the girl keeps the pic of her ex-boyfriends so unsecured? and there is no convincing reason why they hunt down black people?! beside the script the acting was so amateur. Daniel Kaluuya is like flirting all the time in the movie because of the way he looks other actors.
the lighting and the colors which used in the movie was more of a rom-com lighting than a horror movie. all those pale blue and soft sunshine was not scary at all. the whole time you watching the movie the director is telling u there is something bad gonna happen for the main character and guess what?? it will! what I'm saying is there is absolutely no suspension. many may say this movie was good because it was different and there were no ghosts, monsters or other stuffs and it was all with every day objects. okay it was but, duh! not any real thing is scary! I mean look at the "it follows". the great underrated movie of 2014. or even "don't breath". these are different too. but the thing that made "get out" so special for critics and overrated was the fact that, get out was about BLACK PEOPLE and RACISM.
in the end "get out" is not a movie which you would talk about it with your friends to tell them how brave you are!… Expand

Straw man revenge masturbation. Comedy bits were good, though. Jordan Peele knows how to tell a joke but using racial tension to create suspense probably isn't good for the national zeitgeist. It's no Putney Swope.

This was the most overrated piece of junk I have ever scene. Hmmm let me guess a movie written by a black film maker where predictably the hero is black, the white people are all evil and everyone is supposed to completely ignore the onesidedness of any attempt at social commentary. But beyond that the movie just wasn't very funny, very interesting or very scary. The only reason critics are praising this is to not get called a racist and to avoid being swept away by the wave of "Oscars so white." It would be refreshing AND TRULY SURPRISING for a black film maker to make a movie, any movie, where the central theme wasn't racism, now THAT would be noteworthy. I won't hold me breath. Until black film makers embrace the fact that they are more than just spokesman for the black race as a whole, that they can convey ideas beyond "being black" they will never produce anything that we won't see coming a mile away.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. GET OUT is an absolutely downright excellent horror film. Brilliant pacing, & acting.

BUT - reverse the races in GET OUT and we'd have a complete *outcry* against this movie being nominated for BEST PICTURE in 2018's Oscars.

[ SPOILER ALERT ]

The slow, methodical physical and sexual torture white people (including some Asians) vote in this film to perform on a black man because he decided to share a white family's home equally so - proving the dear love he had with a white woman was and will always be fake - coupled with the black man's final resolution of the only way out is a complete slaughter of the whites and then slow, determined strangulation of the white girl who dated him..

.. Excuse me?

Switch the races --

If that were a white man visiting a black family --- a Caucasian man visiting an African American family and dating that African American family's daughter --- and the black family did the torturing of the white man .... resulting in black (instead of white) executions, capped beautifully off with a white man's slow strangulation of a young black woman to free himself from her and her black clan's clutches. Okay - would that be offered as Oscar's BEST PICTURE OF THE YEAR ?

An uproar at the very least would be thrown against this heralding of a white man killing African Americans to purportedly escape from the black man's clutches, and the slow strangulation of an African American woman justifiably and rightfully so it can never happen again; that should not be a Best OSCAR Picture of the Year.

Then -- why is this nominated for OSCAR Best Picture of the Year?

Oh I guess since they're whites being killed off and strangled it's okay.

Best horror film - fine. "Best Picture of the Year" .. wow.

Though as noted an amazing horror film in pacing and acting, its twisted racial abuse and senseless killing storyline makes me give this a 1.… Expand

Seriously though, I don't think I've ever seen a movie try so hard to lay out it's social commentary in such an explicit and undeniable way so quickly. It's all just surface level racial stereotype type stuff too, just the typical modern leftwing racial tension stoking. The actual directing and cinematography is not that good either. It honestly feels pretty low budget. Other than the opening "stay woke" song, the rest of the musical soundtrack also had me cringing as it all felt very soap operay at times, especially when layered on top of the poor cinematography. The whole movie has a "made for TV" feel to it. Most of the acting is mediocre at best, however Daniel Kaluuya did a great job in his role as he always does. That chick from 'Being John Malkovich' did a pretty good job as well. Unfortunately it's the material these actors were given to work with that is the problem. The writing and dialogue are very poor. This is what happens when a writer's main objective is to force "the message" to the forefront to this extreme a degree, the potential for actual interesting dialogue and story telling gets put on the back burner and ultimately discarded. As an old school classical Liberal, who wants to strive for a post-racial society, this movie was a chore to sit through. Could be argued this movie is pro-segregation propaganda. The main metaphor is that white people manipulate black people into giving up their "authentic blackness" and conforming to "whiteness" (whatever the hell those two things are). This movie is a paranoid fever dream for the racially obsessed so-called "anti-racists". I'm sure Robin DiAngelo and Kendi love this movie. They probably watch it on a weekly basis. They may even put it on every night to lullaby themselves to sleep. I'm assuming all the praise for this movie is for purely ideological reasons coming from people in that "anti-rasict" ideological camp. Very horrible and cringy movie, on multiple levels. I usually try to be pretty objective with my scores and this movie is in all honesty probably a 2 in reality but my classical Liberalism bias is bumping it down to a 1. "Stay woke" y'all!!!… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A decade too late this movie was all too predictable and quickly brought to mind The Skeleton Key from a decade prior, which itself wasn't great. Add into the mix the concept of hypnosis, which is so outdated that combined with the obvious plot of the movie, it didn't manage to draw me in to any amount of suspense. It did however surprise me in the end by proving itself to not just be similar to The Skeleton Key, but to have actually been an exact retelling, making the surprise one of disappointment.… Expand

Slow, boring, predictable, and the violence at the end is simply disgusting. It didn't give me any thrill (not like the subtle, psychological violence in Black Swans, for instance). Just made me want to leave the theater. I felt cheated of my $15. My husband and our friend felt the same. This film is transparently symbolic: how alien a black guy feels in the middle of white people, how much violence there is in society, how the white people have the power, control the blacks, and entertain clichés about them, and so on. Guess who's coming for dinner was so much more subtle! And it was fun. Nowadays it looks like a young filmmaker needs to put violence in his film to be noticed because people got desensitized. I agree with the reviews which say that this film got excellent reviews from the critics simply because they were afraid of being called racist.… Expand

The story was awful, the story was way too well constructed to be interesting and the pacing was incredible which I really didn't appreciate.
The characters were terrible, they were too well acted and were too entertaining to be good, I actually felt invested to what was going to happen to the main character which was a huge let down.

So if you have any kind of intelligence do not watch get out, it's too original, too well acted and the story was too interesting and well done, it's an objectively bad film and I feel sorry for anyone who would like it.… Expand
