 What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical over low here So this is my spoiler free review for Jordan pills. Nope. Nope is Jordan pills third horror film or third feature film I guess I'll say because I would describe this more as like a science fiction thriller But it's I guess you still put in the horror genre Directed by Jordan Peele written by Jordan Peele starring Daniel Kalua Kiki Palmer and Steven Young and a few others The other character or the other actor I was gonna mention Was the character plate who played or the actor who plays Angel Torres because he's pretty involved in the narrative Brandon So this movie follows the Haywood siblings who we have been talking about so much on my channel with the Theory videos and all these other speculation videos. I've done But it the premise for the movie is after random objects falling from the sky results in death of their father ranch-owned siblings ranch-owning siblings OJ and Emerald Haywood attempt to capture video evidence of an Unidentified flying object with the help of tech salesman Angel Torres and documentarian antlers Holst now also antlers holes I guess I'll say who was portraying that guy because he is pretty involved in the third act is Michael win cock Who is amazing in the role as well? so When it comes to nope, I will say this is definitely Jordan pills jaws I was like when the reactions came out last night. I was honestly confused by what people were talking about But after seeing the movie myself I Understand what they meant in the whole Spielberg comparisons. Honestly, there's a lot in his movie That just feels like a love letter to Spielberg I can see the comparisons people are making with Shyamalan and I would say after seeing this movie He's three for three with me But I can also see where some people would argue this might be his weakest only because yes at times the narrative was Unfocused or maybe even too vague with its point I can see a lot of people come out coming out of the movie like well What was the point of that? Although the screenplay is still very layered and it wants to address the exploitation of animals more than anything I would say seeking fame and attention has Hollywood commentary, etc. because you know the hay woods are actually Involved in Hollywood have a Hollywood connection Their horses are used for Hollywood productions The most the only thing we really see is them working on a commercial for the most part as shown in the trailer During this movie the dialogue in the movie is certainly designed I would say for certain members of the audience to chuckle I can see I would honestly say that some of that dialogue I'm thinking about is Mostly pointed towards the press members or those of you who are in who are in the journalism field You might understand and laugh at that aspect more of the certain bits of dialogue there Peel again set out to deliver what he called a spectacle and I'd say he did a terrific job more than delivered the Cinematography is breathtaking and the shots are done in ways that legitimately just make the sky terrifying and I and it Just gives you a constant feeling of unease throughout the movie Now I will say this To make to make it probably a little bit more sensible for people Consider what Spielberg did for the water with jaws peel has somehow managed to do that with the sky in nope I don't know how Jordan Peele did that, but he did the sky is Completely terrifying in this movie and I'm not saying that it's gonna give you nightmares or anything like that Like it's completely overly nightmare fueled But he does the same thing with the sky that Spielberg managed to do to water with jaws And I'm not trying to say that it's better than jaws or anything like that But you'll get it once you see the movie Kaluya and Palmer are a real joy to have on the screen I would say Kaluya is more resolved in this in this more reserved in this role We know he's reuniting with Peel after doing get out together as well He's more reserved in the role due to the nature of OJ and the inner struggles inside the character after the death of his father and his lack of passion as it pertains to I guess some of the things going on with the ranch and their current state of affairs Kaluya again delivers a brilliant performance as OJ But Palmer is really getting to shine as Emerald because she's more laid back and more open than OJ She's also the light as opposed to OJ's darkness honestly when they're on screen together So there's that balance that they share There's this balance that the siblings bond the siblings bring to keep the progressions of that bond compelling Even if the relationship between them wasn't explored the way I hoped it would be They certainly are still the emotional hook of the story and the performances had me invested completely it also adds that extra layer of Emotional weight that comes between them in the finale. You'll see what I mean when you see the movie And again while the side characters bit like AJ for example, they're all likable They're still under they're still underwhelming when considering how involved AJ was with the events that unfold He's pretty under underwhelming as a character Most we learned about him was that he's good with his installation and recently went through a breakup He's really a nothing character Stevie Young's jupe who runs Jupiter's claim that attraction is the most intriguing character due to the connection Jupe shares with the occurrences happening around the Haywood Ranch The film doesn't spend a lot of time with him But the time he's on screen is helping piece the public help helping to piece together the puzzle as it pertains to the UFO now admittedly the film does foreshadow and reveal what's happening during the opening sequence I'd say but most audience members won't catch on due to how misleading the trailers work The UFO is in the film and otherworldly activity is going on, but trust me you you're not prepared for this you're not Sometimes the screenplay again does feel unfocused and coherent But I believe the second and third act will fix that the sound design in this movie is almost its own character acting as another tool They amplifies and reinforces the tension built throughout the movie Pilligan definitely enjoys taking audiences on a slow but steady unnerving experience Nope genuinely has some terrifying moments, and I'm not saying again that it's nightmare feeling or anything It's more so the questions surrounding the stranger currencies combined with the film's pacing and the score that sets this unease That gets comfortable during the second act and completely consumes you during the third act Collunia and Palmer again are crushing it in their roles But all the performance that I would say the despite characters being Underwhelming the side characters. They were great for the most part every performance was the themes of exploitation chasing fame and all that again Is addressed it just has a lot more to say about our treatment of animals I would say more than anything while also sprinkling in the stuff related to Spectacleizing blacks etc. Now the movie isn't beating you over the head with a race narrative So I know a lot of people might find that refreshing from some like pill deniers out there who are not a fan of his movies Again, the pacing is another highlight Sure I'll say the first act is a little slow and you might only be engaged because of who is on your screen But pill doesn't forget to reel you in early on with a bizarre opening like he's done in his previous movies Then we spend time with the characters before the second act starts to pick things up And then we lead to this highly thrilling third act that serves as again as a giant love letter I would say to Jaws in my eyes. It really just is Jaws I'm sitting there watching the third act genuinely going that's chief Brody That's Quinn and so on and so forth So if anything, it's a brilliant example of why Jaws doesn't need a remake when you have Original ideas like this being done that still remind you of a movie like Jaws Why without being a complete carbon copy of it? So this is definitely pills most ambitious project and I can see it being his most divisive as well I enjoyed nope. I enjoyed all the technical aspects of it. I just think the script could have been slightly better I'm gonna give it a seven and a half out of ten I put it right next to get out and us is last But if you haven't already of course make sure you subscribe turn on post notification There is a video in the description.
