I liked it. Most of it at the beginning was wtf? Then the end plot twists were interesting and gathered up all the weird stuff. Not a block buster for sure but wasn’t trying to be. Not your typical 5 minutes in, “ he did it!” Movie.

The actual movie and story were Halfway decent.

The ending though? The characters and the acting? The script???

Those people should be ashamed of themselves!!! 🤣

I thought it was meh. I like sci fi though. I wouldn’t necessarily rush to recommend it. It was very “Signs” like. Old tale told many times with a slight twist.

Signs was absolutely a great movie. I’m saying Nope ripped it off and director / writer was shooting hard to make it look like an m night shamilan film.

Totally Agree! 💯

They tried to rip off every si-fi movie Ever made...

Alien gets destroyed by something So simple. Instead of the common cold, it's a balloon this time. 🙄

And WTF was that whole thing with the monkey all about?? Why was that even part of this movie?? 🤷‍♂️

Good grief. 🤦‍♂️

You know, that’s a great point. It never explained why that was even a plot line. Super random. And the girl that got beat by the monkey was sitting in the stands. But they never went into what the fuck that was all about. Poor editing I’m guessing. I bet there was a lot of that plot line on the cutting room floor.


Edit - ok, I take it back. I just googled it and it is a load of horse shit! Peele tries to explain its a commentary on how humans treat animals and about how people deal with trauma or some stupid touchy feely crap. Purposefully written into the story. Swing and a miss!

The kid that was under the table, was the MC at the ranch next door...

I guess it was supposed to show he was a child actor? That was still kinna/sorta an actor, present time, with an oh so traumatic background??

The dad was killed by a nickel, and the son saved it on his wall??

How about the motorcycle rider with the one eyed chrome helmet??

The dude from Fry's just HAPPENS to be a UFO buff??

And the cinematographer that runs out of film, at exactly the wrong time??

And let's not talk about a wishing well that takes pics, and spits them out as 12x14 prints shall we??
