Too much social commentary, not enough horror (or suspense). Easily the least impressive Peele production.

@chopssake Same.
In 'Get Out', the story was good so I didn't really care much about the commentary. 'Us' pushed it a bit further, but still enjoyable.
This is an opinionated commentary disguised as a reboot of a classic horror movie.
Candyman is framed as an anti-hero, but Peele has clearly stated in this film who he believes the villains are.

@chopssake Agreed, like he brought back Twilight Zone for the same reason. That didn’t last either.
This was decent but not scary and sort of sloppy. Maybe I have to see it again but don’t really want to.
I..., I..., I went in blind. Just finished. I'm speechless, but I don't know if for better or worse.
I thought the performances were good, the kids were fantastic (Roman, well done). Lily-Rose as well.
There's nothing I can say without spoilers other than if you're at the halfway mark and bored, you can safely end it.
Personally, I couldn't look away.

@saltycatfish I was bored from start to finish. I wish I would have read your comment earlier :)
