Tyrel

I waited and waited for something to happen. But all I did was waste time of my life. I would rather watch paint dry while being poked in my eye with a toothpick. Is it possible to give no stars? I'm saying no spoilers cause there is nothing to spoil unless you like garbage.

As a black man in his 40's I must say this is the scariest movie I've ever seen. I was petrified from beginning to end...

This movie follows the story of a young black man in a a group of hard partying but well meaning white guys. It's deadly accurate in setting the tone of what that feels like but kinda falls short in the end. Kind of like a more realistic Get Out without the sci-fi twist to it. A good watch if you've ever been in this situation before!

One of those films that looked interesting by the plot but comes up short in the end. That being said, there are good performances by the lead Jason Mitchell, Christopher Abbott & the great Caleb Landry Jones of Get Out fame. Tyler his name in the film feels out of place by how a bunch of guys act when drunk and partying for ones birthday and some choice words taken out of context can come off creepy while others were in reality poor taste to some degree. Still, the other guys at the get together are not far right or even textbook republicans but a group of guys being guys and acting dumb while not over analyzing things, which are done today constantly. These guys are anti-Trump and essentially a bunch of white guys being guys in and only environment. No ill will is hanging around ourside of Tyler who just feels out of place. Mitchell sells this well. Anyone who is a guy knows things let loose when around each other. Comparing this to Get Out is a bit of a cop out even though Tyler feels like an outsider until he makes a fool of himself later on. I take away the decent to good performances but not much else. A better script would have helped but this is not a waste of time if you just take in the film in itself.

You should watch this movie from an inner perspective. In my opinion, the writer was trying to take the viewer on a mystery ride. The plot set your emotion to think something horrific is going to happen; specially when achole is involved. Nice movie with classic music to add to the mood.
