written and directed by Jordan Peele
Adelaide Wilson and her family are on vacation when they get an unexpected visit from a family that looks just like them. It gets weirder, much weirder. I'm not sure that everything was fully resolved to my satisfaction but it was a wild ride. There are some twists in the tale that I wasn't expecting and that weren't spoiled by reviews I had heard. It kept me guessing and asking myself questions right up to the very end.
I thought that the direction and all of the performances were great. I like the score by Michael Abels and the other songs included in the movie. It all seemed very appropriate and added to the movie rather that distract from it.
I had little to nothing spoiled about this movie before I saw it. The first sentence of the first paragraph above is basically all I knew going in.
I will probably want to see this again at some point in the future, just to see how it holds up to repeat viewings. I feel fairly confident that it will.
