A good movie

Since I kept hearing some great things about this flick, I was quite eager to check it out. Well, for Jordan Peele, it turned out to be another home-run as this movie was another box-office and critical success and, personally, I think I enjoyed it even more than ‘Get Out’. Indeed, the damned thing was just so spooky and quite scarier than Peele’s previous directing effort and, on top of that, Lupita Nyong'o gave not one but two very strong performances. Still, unfortunately, pretty much like with ‘Get Out’, once again, the concept was rather far-fetched after all. Seriously, ever since I saw this movie, I kept thinking about it and, to be honest, none of it made much sense. I mean, where did the Tethered come from? Who’s in charge? How do they live? How does it actually work? At some point, Red started to give some explanation but, even after rewinding this scene and watch it a 2^nd time, it still didn’t make much sense to me. Of course, I get that this movie was supposed to be some kind of allegory about minority cultures in the US but it is an excuse that could be used for most non-sensical movies. Furthermore, I figured out the twist fairly early on and, while Adelaide’s behaviour could be explained, Red’s behaviour, considering this twist, didn’t really work though. For example, if Adelaide managed to escape really easily, why didn’t she escape as well? Above all, why did she never confront Adelaide with what she did? After all, she pretty much ruined/stole her life. Anyway, to conclude, even if it wasn’t flawless, it was still another really strong horror flick from Peele and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
