- GrimeFiVideoJune 9, 2025I really enjoy Jodan Peele's other films, but this movie sucks. It's an hour and a half of lackluster slasher kills, bad acting, and a miserably boring lack of direction; concluded by a TEN MINUTE scene of nothing but exposition. That's ten whole minutes of being spoon fed the only somewhat interesting information in the whole movie. They must've gone over budget or run out of time when filming and editing "Us", because the whole thing feels empty. The overall premise could have been interesting, but it's executed so poorly. Jordan Peele and all the actors have talent, but it's not shown here.
- LD_50October 28, 2025A shallow plot made to seem more substantial because of the symbolism, metaphors, and social commentary, rather than writing a tight story with interesting characters. While Peele has some good ideas on display in an attempt to tell a layered story, the movie is unfortunately bogged down by inconsistent tone, plot holes, and a boring plot.
- stuhannafordMay 19, 2025A film that believes it is perhaps more important than it is. Extraordinarily long sequences at the mid section and finale, with very little story for a movie, which is, at its base, a mildly comedic horror… which is saying something. Its premise is strong, with an atmospheric beginning, shades of our introduction to IT. However, as the knives, or should I say scissors, begin to come out, the story begins to shred and tatter. The final ‘gotcha’, is telegraphed, and the ‘education’ you feel subjected to, gets tangled and lost. High initial hopes, meander to an unfulfilled end for Us, the viewers.
