So Who Saw Nope?


Did you see Jordan Peele's film Nope over the weekend? Some of you must have. I would love to write about Nope but the sad truth is nobody's paying me to write about it and I've got about ten thousand reviews of Fantasia Fest movies that are higher priorities at the moment, so I might not end up writing about Nope. But at the same time for sanity's sake I might have to force myself to write about Nope anyway because I do have things that I want to say about it! So... I'm stuck in a little bit of an undecided limbo today, is my point, unsure which way to go. We'll see how the week treats me. But for right this moment if anybody wants to share their thoughts to me on the movie here is the place to do it, in the comments of this post. I'll even give you a shirtless photo of scene-stealer Brandon Perea to coax you (I posted a few more on Twitter as well). Well it'll coax you to something anyway...

Thought it was Peele's best yet. I loved "Get Out." "Us" had more interesting visuals and thematic detours but it got a little bogged down with the plot. With "Nope" it all hung together. Saw it in Imax in the front row and dang was that the right choice, so much to look at and the tension was parsed out perfectly. Jupe talking about the SNL sketch? That was some deep, dark shit.
