Hollywood’s newest superstar director, Jordan Peele, wrote, produced and directed “Us.”
The main clincher for the film revolves around Adelaide (Lupita Nyong’o) and her family of four moving into their new summer home in beautiful Santa Cruz, California, where Adelaide just so happens to have spent much of her childhood.
From the get go, we notice that Adelaide seems to be dealing with a lot of underlying trauma and stress that is directly tied to the boardwalk and beach in Santa Cruz.
Later the family discovers each of them have four identical doppelgängers who are relentlessly hell-bent and murdering each one of them.
