Quick Review: Get Out

5/10/2017

​Get Out is a social critique that's laced with racial tension and packaged in a horror/comedy duo. It’s the best film of 2017 thus far.


I know that I’m late to the party, but Get Out is a thought-provoking thrill ride seamlessly weaved through the mastermind of Jordan Peele (Key & Peele). Peele’s directorial debut could go into the books as one of the most successful first tries ever achieved on film. Get Out will have your heart pumping with your hands on the edge of your seat from the first frame until the last. Spiraling around the story of a young African-American man (the terrific Daniel Kaluuya) who visits his Caucasian girlfriend’s (a wonderful Allison Williams) mysterious family estate. Peele unleashes racial paranoia in an effective horror/comedy mash-up.

​Get Out not only parallels real world events, but also captures the fears of what real black men and women face every single day. In my opinion, Peele’s first film receives all 5 stars for its sheer brilliance in writing, acting and directing. Get Out’s scarefest will surely leave viewers shaken and stirred. A searing satire that's scary enough on its own terms. In a twist, Get Out finds its tension in black people's fear of white people's fear of black people. Furthermore, I’ll let you enjoy the rest of this madness on your own. 

Get Out is rated R (Restricted). For violence, bloody images, and language including sexual references.
