Us (2019) | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Lawrence Ware New York Times “Us” offers no easy answers, but indicts us all. Rated: A Oct 13, 2023 Full Review Us (2019) | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Stephanie Zacharek TIME Magazine It's one thing for a movie to humble you by leaving you unsure about yourself and your place in the world; it's another for it to leave you wondering what, exactly, a filmmaker is trying to use his formidable verbal and visual vocabulary to say. Dec 10, 2019 Full Review Us (2019) | Rotten Tomatoes (3) John Semley Globe and Mail Peele develops a genuinely thrilling, heart-in-the-throat-scary horror picture. Rated: 3/4 Dec 10, 2019 Full Review Us (2019) | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Ryan McQuade InSession Film When you are watching a Jordan Peele movie from now on, you will know you are in good hands and thus he has turned into an event director... Apr 4, 2024 Full Review Us (2019) | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Paul Kanieski KSQD Community Radio Peele crafts a story that sucks us into a waking nightmare, and along the way it touches on such weighty themes such as economic disparity, nature vs. nurture, and our propensity for self-destruction. Jul 26, 2023 Full Review Us (2019) | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Manuel São Bento MSB Reviews Once again, Jordan Peele offers a thought-provoking, deeply layered, and incredibly suspenseful narrative.

Bean Very different take on horror/suspense. Storyline was a little weird and hard to follow at times, but the creepiness of it all mad up for that! It's definitely worth seeing at least once! I've seen it 3 times already! Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/03/23 Full Review HK1213 Not as astonishing as Get Out but still left the movie with shock. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/08/22 Full Review Nathan Really good suspenseful thriller with a eerie nuance, I'll recommend. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/10/21 Full Review Bruce W I somehow managed to miss this on release and before today had never had the opportunity to see it. Glad I caught it. The sort of film M Night Shyalaman wishes he was making. Throughly enjoyable. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/13/24 Full Review Gary O Clever but sadly too clever. Wonderfully talented directing. Material is too weird. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/12/24 Full Review TROY S “Us” is one of the best psychological thrillers in recent film. The brilliant use of character writing, development, and conflict — along with an impactful use of settings and themes Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/12/24 Full Review Read all reviews
