A Man Called Otto - 7/10
Tom Hanks stars as Otto is a grump who's given up on life following the loss of his wife and wants to end it all. When a young family moves in nearby, he meets his match in quick-witted Marisol, leading to a friendship that will turn his world around.

Get Out
Incredible. Saw it a few years ago but rewatched last night. Very tense moments.
May try Jordan Peele's other films next, Us and Nope? I think

I think I'll go with that. Had a quick Google of it and seems a bit marmite reception wise, but will see

I see he has a new one out called nope, has anyone seen it? I liked get out and us.
It's my least favourite of the 3 but still worth a watch. Really well shot and some very suspenseful scenes but didn't feel it was as effective as it could have been.

Get Out was brilliant, the other 2 were crap imo. I got half way through Nope and then decided Nope, and switched it off.

Us is good if you don't think about it too hard.

I'll wait until its on a streaming service i have then.
Us and Nope never hit the heights of Get Out but i'll give full marks to any director making an attempt at something different to typical cookie cutter movies. Nope has some fantastic elements throughout but isn't able to quite draw them together in a tight and satisfying narrative. Nope works on it's performances which are great from all involved.

I ended up watching "Us" Last night.
Ehhh I didn't mind it, preferred Get Out by far but they are very different.
I enjoyed the first half, then I lost my way with it. But still glad I gave it a go

I think all three are good films. Some creative ideas, which makes a change from all the usual Hollywood bilge, remakes, sequels and superhero garbage.

Us is definitely the weakest of the three. But still some good ideas and good performances from the actors
Get out 7.5/10
Nope 7/10
Us 6/10

I wasn't that enthused about it either after my first viewing, though I did later go back and watch it again, and I'm glad I did.
Also, sometimes after watching a film of that type a couple of times, I may then watch a YT video detailing things I may have missed or didn't fully understand.
That can then make a future watch even better, IMO.
