À propos de ce film

Chris (Daniel Kaluuya), jeune homme noir, est invité par Rose (Allison Williams), sa petite amie blanche, à passer le week-end dans la propriété de ses parents. D'emblée, le garçon ressent un étrange malaise, même si ses hôtes s'efforcent de paraître souriants et accueillants. Sans doute, pense-t-il, pour effacer la gêne liée à sa couleur de peau. Pourtant, suite à plusieurs phénomènes perturbants, Chris comprend que la réalité dépasse largement tout ce qu'il avait imaginé...Un thriller spéculatif sur le racisme de l'Amérique post-Obama, mis en scène avec une redoutable efficacité et doté d'un humour grinçant.

Notes et avis

It's basically Skeleton Key but from an African American's perspective. The foreshadowing was pretty obvious and I was able to call the twists less than halfway in. That dropped the excitement and made it just a casual watch. It's still a 'decent' movie... I'm not disappointed... But it lost its luster early on for me. Not bad; could have been better.

I might be biased.. this movie was okay. I thought it was going to be a horror about how scary a group of people who don't relate to, know, or care about you can be. That racism would play in. Instead I got a sci Fi thriller. I've heard some people try and explain it to me, but I just can't shake that this is a dumbed down version of the movie I thought. That it needed to pull a shyamalan.

I was not really surprised by the so called plot twists. That's why my rating is so low in the first place. It is a good movie, but don't expect too much.
