    Impressive how he's able to do this in an age where the super hero dominates the box office. With his next film however I wonder if he's going to branch out, NOPE was georgous in IMAX. Universal got a good thing going on with him and now they've acquired Nolan.

    I always of Jordan Peele as just a comedian but i didn’t know he’s a great director!
    Side note: also the movies wouldn’t be the same without the cinematographers. The deep camera work and detail they out in lighting and imagery is just astounding. I hope Jordan and the cinematographers that worked in each film get more success because they deserve it. 😊

    I remembered watching Jordan comedy back in middle school especially with that Obama video. When I saw that he was releasing the movie " get out" I honestly thought it was going to be trash, just another actor trying to get another check. Man was I wrong, as a big horror fan I was watching the movie very closely; more like looking for parts I dint like so I could talk about it, but once I saw that I was halfway through the movie I realized that Jordan has a lot of potential.

    I really love Jordan Peele's movies. However, some scenes are so dark that it's hard to see the actors facial expressions, and he uses such superb actors that I want to see their work. Maybe it was the theaters I watched the films at? Also the heavy use of blue just bothers me. But I come from a stage background so maybe that's why. On stage we try not to light black actors with such heavy blue without a rim of warm light around them. At any rate he has fantastic stories and I will watch everything he puts on film.

      Nope was aimless, pointless, undeveloped and shallow in it's story. It had a promising first and second act, but it did not deliver what it promised in its set up. It was unsatisfying. As for Us, it was enjoyable however the concept and the verisimilitude were shallow and ultimately tainted the experience unfavourably. I don't think I have any bone to pick with Get Out however.
