First, I don’t share spoilers; I often say this, but I felt it was extra important for this review. I had watched the trailer and wasn’t impressed by it, and I was hoping that the film had some great surprises for me.<\/p>\n

So, I’m going to start by saying that I loved Jordan Peele’s dive into horror, his 2017 film GET OUT, and, to a slightly lesser degree, his 2019 follow-up film US. I thought they were both brilliantly written, had excellent social commentary, and wonderfully unique twists.<\/p>\n

As I mentioned previously, I wasn’t impressed with the trailer for NOPE. Sadly the film didn’t change my opinion at all. Before I go into the negative, I will say that I realize many people enjoy this, and that’s okay. Cinema would be pretty dull if we all agreed on the same thing all the time. So as I always say, don’t take my word for it; watch it for yourself and see what you think.<\/p>\n

I will say that Daniel Kaluuya (BLACK PANTHER, GET OUT) is a remarkable actor and was fantastic in this. Unfortunately, I feel it was all for nothing in this film; while there were a lot of great moments, I feel like it all led to nothing, unfortunately. There was potential throughout the film; I think many great “realizations” could’ve led to something incredible. Instead, it just seemed to all lead to this dead end that just missed the mark for me.<\/p>\n

The part of the film I disliked the most was somewhat of a surprise but also what I expected with a slight twist. It’s hard to explain without giving anything away; I was hoping that what I suspected wouldn’t be the case the entire time. However, it ended up playing out how I was worried it would.<\/p>\n

I think what the film lacked the most was that it didn’t have the same level of creativity or twists that his first two did. Ultimately I hope that this will just be a hiccup in Joran Peele’s filmography for me and that whatever he does next will bring me back to what I loved so much.<\/p>\n
