Nope Review: A Haunting & Humorous Twist On Hollywood Sci-Fi
Nope, Jordan Peele's new movie about a «bad miracle,» offers a thrilling and humorous twist on Hollywood sci-fi - and serves as a meta-love letter to filmmaking. Fans of Peele's prior horror entries, Get Out and Us, are likely to enjoy the filmmaker's latest offering; though, it's worth noting that, while still full of profound and layered ideas, Nope is closer in execution to the horror-comedy mix of Get Out than Us (which, although profound and more nuanced, was slightly more difficult for moviegoers to digest). Thematically, everything ties together but some plot threads are looser than others — serving the movie as an experience (packed with foreshadowing, homage, and clever ties to film history) more than the plot, on occasion.
