im usually high on films with Jordan Peele’s involvement but this one missed the mark in my opinion. it had some interesting moments that captured my attention. the first 45 minutes of the film was truly captivating with subtle details and visual cues but after that everything felt stale. Marlon Wayans performance exceeded my expectations, as he along with costar Tyriq Withers bought this film life. Although their individual performances were on point the overall film felt like it was trying too hard to make something out of a concept that truly wasn’t there, like they were grasping at straws. i love the idea of the film but the execution left me a bit disappointed in some areas. the film wasn’t terrible but it wasn’t as good as it could’ve been. ill probably give it another watch somewhere down the line.
