I liked Get Out but I didn’t think it was brilliant. It didn’t stick with me after the fact. Also I figured out the plot about 17 minutes in.
Us is smarter and tripped me up a couple times.
It’s also just plain scarier. Not that it’s just a horror movie — there’s SO much going on in this thing.
Plus, picking “I got 5 on it” by Luniz as the main musical signifier was BRILLIANT, and the remix of the track used in the film is seriously never going to leave my brain.
Get Out had better writing, perhaps, but Us is better.
