Us is a 2019 movie written and directed by Jordan Peele who is also famously known for his 2017 hit Get Out. The movie Us is about a family of four, Adelaide, and Gabe Wilson and their children, Zora, and Jason Wilson, who are confronted by their evil doppelgangers.
Adelaide is played by the phenomenal Lupita Nyong’o who is widely known for her performance in Black Panther earlier last year. Gabe is played by Winston Duke who is also starring in the newly released Avengers Endgame.
The doppelgangers who are called the “tethered,” have a mission to take over their lives, and get their time on what they call “the other side.” The family embarks on a kill or be killed mission, as they do their best to escape their tethered beings.
As they do their best to escape them, they are faced with many challenges, including encountering other tethereds. The movie concludes with what in my opinion was one of the biggest plot twists I’ve ever seen, but I won’t spoil the ending for you. If I had to give Us a rating out of 10 stars, it would definitely be 11.
