I think this movie was awesome. I think Us is the real highlight between the two that Peele has directed so far. I've seen reviews upset about the "plotholes" because not everything was spoonfed to them, or that it wasn't scary enough, or whatever... Read the full review »

Overall this wasn't a bad movie and I can see the appeal it had with some audiences. Is it for everyone? Definitely not. It was a well thought out movie that executed its' vision, even if that vision was cannibalism. It wasn't anything overly impr... Read the full review »

Luckily the direction of the movie prevailed over all else and delivered an overall creepy and great film. The ending leaves a bit to be desired and almost comes off a little cliché but it doesn't take away from the rest of the movie. I'd recomme... Read the full review »

This has the flavor of most of the Saw films after Saw 3. It's clearly setting the stage for more sequels, assuming that it has some financial success. It was certainly better than the past few entries, but that's not really saying too much. This... Read the full review »

If you're into sci-fi/horror this is the movie for you. I love this film and the way that the story comes together. Even with the aforementioned flaw (in my detailed review), the movie tells a great story. I'm sure I'm going to upset someone out t... Read the full review »

It failed to deliver on multiple fronts which makes me reconsider why they really gave this a limited release. I could have forgiven some bad CGI and slow-motion effects for a good, creepy story. I'm hoping that the next sequel for this movie stay... Read the full review »

The flaws of this movie are minor and easily overlooked because of the great concept and storytelling of the film. I believe that this was a solid mark on the new age of horror films and showed that it's not dead yet. David Robert Mitchell managed... Read the full review »

All things considered, this movie didn't disappointment me. There were good solid characters and a wonderfully crafted atmosphere. It was also nice to see some mystery shrouding a horror story without giving too many cliché answers. If you're a h... Read the full review »

The first thing most people are going to do is compare this to the 1990 version and that's fair enough because I'm doing the exact same thing. The overall film stands miles over the original version but that's an easy hurdle considering all the ba... Read the full review »

The Belko Experiment is a twisted little number that satisfies those thoughts and questions from the lizard brain. The ending lends itself to a potential sequel if they really cared to. While the film is enjoyable, I don't think anything about it... Read the full review »

It's necessary to shake things up a bit when material starts to become too trite and horror really does need its Renaissance. I was hoping this anthology would be a welcome addition to the world of horror and provide a fresh perspective. But it fa... Read the full review »

It's worth your time and considering its runtime it's not a very big investment either. This one of those movies that's an interesting watch one time through but I don't know if I'll find myself aching to watch it again, at least not any time soon... Read the full review »

If you're a fan of Chapter One, chances are highly likely you'll be a fan of Chapter Two. It hits all the same beats of the first, but just hits a little harder. It can be a tough act to follow when you've already created one good movie and you're... Read the full review »
