With Us having its premiere at the South by Southwest film festival, reactions are pouring in from the year's first horror event. Riding on fantastic trailers and a twisted premise, many see the film as one of the most anticipated cinematic experiences of the year.
Starring Lupita Nyong'o and Winston Duke, who co-starred in last year's Black Panther, Us is being praised from all sides of the critical spectrum. Specifically, those who have seen the film are hailing a career-best performance from Lupita Nyong'o and the undeniable directing chops of Jordan Peele, "our modern day Hitchcock."
It's amazing to witness an emerging filmmaker boost to the top of the food chain like Jordan Peele has. After primarily being known for his comedic work, he is proving once again that he should not be dismissed as a genre creative.
