Went in with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised... Story was quirky and offbeat and was smart enough to let the viewer interpret the narrative.... Strong performances by the two leads, deftly parlaying the black humor sprinkled throughout the plot......Well directed with an interesting visual flair throughout the film..... Most definitely looking forward to more from this director and the actors involved...

Get Out
(I) (2017)
Best debut from a first time director in years
12 May 2017
Let's clear the air about this film. It's not a horror film. It's not a comedy. What it is, is a suspenseful thriller of the highest level, worthy to be compared to Hitchcock caliber. The humor is there, along with a few horror scenes, but not enough to overshadow the main theme of the story. The film hits all cylinders with almost no misfires. As far as complaints that the film is racist, it is not. It would work just as well with an all-black or all-white cast. Those complaints are from people who are uncomfortable with black people or interracial relationships and are letting it distract them from the narrative of the film. I most certainly hope that it reaches the wider audience that it so richly deserves.
