Us (Film Review)
Us is a good film that suffers from a case of too much information. The film starts off with a wickedly enticing
premise and set up. The Wilson family—mother
Adelaide (Lupita Nyong'o), father Gabe (Winston Duke), daughter Zora (Shahadi
Wright Joseph), and son Jason (Evan Alex)—are vacationing at their beach house
when confronted and captured by another family that looks exactly like
them. These “shadows” are deformed
versions of themselves out for revenge—giving each family member a sporting
chance (complete with a different challenge) as they enact their vengeance. I really enjoy this aspect, though, unfortunately,
it doesn’t last long as the family regroup and learn that they aren’t the only
ones with shadow versions of themselves—with the entire country under attack by
deformed doubles.
