10. Review of Get Out

• “Jordan Peele’s Get Out is a modern masterpiece that’s both thrilling and socially relevant. It’s an intense horror-thriller that captures the sense of fear and paranoia that many people of color experience daily. The script is sharp and intelligent, and Peele’s direction is masterful. Daniel Kaluuya gives an incredible performance as Chris, the protagonist, while Allison Williams and Bradley Whitford provide strong support. But the real star is Peele himself, who shows his skill at blending horror, humor and social commentary into a film that’s both entertaining and meaningful. A must-see.”
