My Thoughts
When I first saw the teaser & trailer for this movie, I was not expecting it.
My first thought was that it looked like it would possibly involve UFOs / UAPs & aliens and / or something else that is paranormal & possibly supernatural.
I hoped & assumed that Jordan Peele would surprise us with this movie, that he would make something unique, and that it would hopefully good & thought-provoking like his previous two movies.
The first trailer was good, but the second trailer was bad.
Unfortunately, this movie was not as good as the first trailer or his previous two movies, in my opinion, but it was not bad.
It felt slower and longer than it should have, in my opinion, and there was an unnecessary amount of cursing that I did not expect or like.
While I like how this movie had a twist, I wish that they could have explored it better, the closest they came to this was a certain scary scene inside something.
That scene was probably the scariest scene in this movie, and I wish that more of this movie would have been like that.
The end,
