NOPE
Jordan Peele fucking did it again. Starring Keke Palmer, Daniel Kaluuya, Steven Yeun, Michael Wincott and Brandon Perea who plays Angel. (Part of the comic relief. New face for me and i really loved his work too.) But this one was different. Good different. I just really loved how this movie has everything, the Sci fi aspect, the suspense. I felt like i was constantly on the edge of my seat, just impatient, I needed to know what was coming next NOW lol. Every time the next scene was something better than I could ever imagine.
The camera work was impeccable. The shots were creative and engaging. The ending was insane. I know I’m getting ahead of myself but without spoiling too much. This movie was exciting, terrifying in some aspects with the creativity with the UFO aspect but also endearing. Keke and Daniel gave us some real sibling vibes.
I also really enjoyed seeing Michael Wincott who plays Antlers Holst. A incredible cinematographer that they happen to convince to help them with a “money shot.” His face might look familiar from the cult classic The Crow.
Very creative work, and it really just got me very excited to see what else Jordan Peele has up his sleeves. What other genres will he incorporate into his work. 10/10 recommend.
Go support Black Films, Black writers, Black actors, Black Directors. We have so much to say and show and it’s all so brilliant.
