    If you're white you might not get it. If you're black, you will.

    It's a vibe. It's realistic. No there is no crazy ending but that's not the point. The racism in the movie is real life. It's uncomfortable but without the crazy ending. I liked it. I liked how it left me like "What the hell?"

    A little suspenseful ride!

    You should watch this movie from an inner perspective. In my opinion, the writer was trying to take the viewer on a mystery ride. The plot set your emotion to think something horrific is going to happen; specially when achole is involved. Nice movie with classic music to add to the mood.

    Scary AF!

    As a black man in his 40's I must say this is the scariest movie I've ever seen. I was petrified from beginning to end...

    A damp squib done well but still dull

    This is a well-made film about something genuinely interesting in real life: the little mystery of why young men so often feel the need to appear ghoulish even when they're basically decent. Maybe it's the same reason people watch horror movies: to play with scary stuff in a safe space.

    Unfortunately, while making a faux horror movie out of young men's faux horror might make a nice point, the result here is altogether too much safe space. At almost no point do these guys seem genuinely threatening and the only trace of jeopardy is the risk of alcohol poisoning. Well-written, shot and acted though it all is, the whole thing feels basically pointless.

    Not Get Out but does not lack substance

    One of those films that looked interesting by the plot but comes up short in the end. That being said, there are good performances by the lead Jason Mitchell, Christopher Abbott & the great Caleb Landry Jones of Get Out fame. Tyler his name in the film feels out of place by how a bunch of guys act when drunk and partying for ones birthday and some choice words taken out of context can come off creepy while others were in reality poor taste to some degree. Still, the other guys at the get together are not far right or even textbook republicans but a group of guys being guys and acting dumb while not over analyzing things, which are done today constantly. These guys are anti-Trump and essentially a bunch of white guys being guys in and only environment. No ill will is hanging around ourside of Tyler who just feels out of place. Mitchell sells this well. Anyone who is a guy knows things let loose when around each other. Comparing this to Get Out is a bit of a cop out even though Tyler feels like an outsider until he makes a fool of himself later on. I take away the decent to good performances but not much else. A better script would have helped but this is not a waste of time if you just take in the film in itself.
