I think it's a bit of a shame how like most horror movies, the movie got worse the more we learned. Subterranean science lab was just not a great setting and I found myself pretty bored through the climax in Act III. The stuff in the beginning was fantastic, and I think the movie could have been better if they limited it to just the Wilsons. I wasn't terribly stirred by the social commentary angle, which Peele took kind of seriously from what I have read.

For instance, the monologue from the doppelganger the beginning was really chilling, about living a horrific and cruel imitation of her life, but I was a little less excited when the line about "only eating raw and bloody rabbits" was not just metaphorical, but it meant they were actually eating raw rabbits. Kind of like in the Dark Knight Rises where we learned "the pit that nobody climbed out of" was... an actual pit.

Tim Heidecker was great, though.

This made me want to watch Get Out again. There was just no fat on it. Man, that movie was a masterpiece.

Oh, also, I think I noticed that at the very end, when we see the A/B shots of surface Adelaide and underground Adelaide, she walks by a couple leaning on the wall playing rock/paper/scissors. I'm unsure if I saw it right, but it looked like the counterparts in the underground are only throwing scissors. Cute touch!
