Greatoneshere Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Have you seen Jordan Peele's previously written/directed films Get Out and Us? If so, how did you feel about those? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His filmmaking becomes more surreal and slow with each passing film. Nope is a pretty slow-burn and sometimes existential affair. I think it's absolutely worth a watch (it's at times basically a modern western in some ways) though I'm not sure you specifically will like it, so I'd give Us a go first, which is less abstract an experience than Nope is. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentbob Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I really liked Get Out, haven’t seen Us(own), but I enjoyed Nope. The movie has a few scenes that I don’t think were really needed but did help you understand/feel for some characters. Plus I really dug the look of everything and liked the opened up IMAX scenes being included on the 4K disc at least. The sound design is amazing/intense/creepy for especially a few scenes if you have the setup (creepier with Atmos) I say it’s worth a viewing at least and could probably see myself enjoying this more on a 2nd viewing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
best3444 Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 I decided not to watch it. I went for Scream VI which has been just ok so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaysWho? Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Nope will be waiting for you anyway. I've liked all his films, but I was more impressed with his first two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stepee Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Nope is good and you got to walk around the set during the Universal Studios Horror Nights I want to and it was cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I would actually say no. There's some great stuff in it but I think he missed on the main characters in the movie which is where is really falls flat for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatoneshere Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Nope is awesome, here are some reasons why I'm right. It also gets points for having one of the best scenes to come out of an otherwise very sedate film and yes, that's not sped up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal-El814 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Nope is fine. I don’t think it’s as dumb or pointless or whatever as some people seemed to think it was, and I also don’t think it’s as smart or interesting or has as much to say as I assume Peele thinks it does. As a vibe it’s pretty good, it’s occasionally interesting, but I don’t know that I think it works. Probably worth seeing if you like thinking about movies, if you go to them to escape and be titillated… eh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
