FIRST TIME WATCHING: Us...it's them but CREEPY!!! 

from what I understand the plot is about classism. The lower class and the upper class. The lower class finally revolting against the upper class and talking their "place in the sun".

The ending is him accepting. Like, he put on his mask to symbolize that he recognizes everyone wears a mask. Just like his mother has worn one her whole life. She's not really who she says she is. And he accepts that and accepts her.

When you watch it a second time you definitely see so many more things that are subtext too. When I saw it this time I thought that that Red's kids have a sort of human touch to them compared to the white family's clones who just kill brutally like animals. They also seem smarter because one of their parents are from above ground. In the same way Adalaide's kids are more prone to violence. They just seem to jump into violence. Its not often you see the protagonists easily kill in horror movies.

Looking back on this movie I think once fake Adelaide realized that the real Adelaide would be paying her a visit, she tried to set a foundation of alleged ""victimhood" by partially telling her husband about the carnival event as a way to keep him on her side. Which was pointless because Gabe wasn't really listening & they were all too busy fighting for their lives

This movie never gets old. I never get tired of watching it. Each time you watch it you catch something new about the plot. Like the shot of the family walking across the sand on the beach and seeing their shadows - a sign of doubles.

Got to love how each of the "Doppelgangers" are the complete opposite from their counter-parts - The dad is funny and happy, sarcastic - while his clone is angry (From his constant facial expression) and aggressive - The Daughters clone has no beauty features or make-up when the original was all about beauty - The Son's clone never spoke/grunt while the original spoke a lot.

My take on the movie is that it's a critique of america's treatment of "otherness". The movie really makes you think, "who is really the villain here?" as evidenced by adelaide as the clone being in disguise among regular people and taking red's place, and adelaide's violence towards red and the tethered. I remember seeing someone say that the title "Us" is a double entendre; "us" meaning the clones are us, and "U.S" as a reference to red's line of "we are americans"; we may treat others as aliens on our own turf (i.e., the tethered) but they're technically just fellow americans

from someone who has lived near santa cruz (location where the movie was filmed) my whole life, its sooo surreal to see the places ive been too but like turned into something scary. every time i go to that boardwalk now im hella paranoid that theres a bunch of doppelgangers underground

Man Ninetail is so smart. I wasn't even thinking about any twists when I first saw it. 😅

I watched this movie at least 3 times and in each of them I noticed something that I didn't saw at the 1st time (like when the protagonist is going down in that place like the knows exactly where she needs to go, when a normal person would be open all of the doors)

your channel was recommended to me last night with one of your harry potter reactions, so naturally, as the potter head that i am, proceeded to watch all of them in one sitting. i may have gone to bed at 5am but it honestly was worth it. i absolutely love your channel and i am so excited to watch this and the rest of your content going forward :))

There's something about this movie that actually terrifies me. Like I normally don't have strong reactions to horror movies, but I think the acting is what gets to me. It verges on uncanny-valley. Like almost human, but slightly off.

The most chilling and freaky line in this movie to me was, "Ambre was born laughing."

I'm late but the reason the other mother was talking in a weird way is because the girl strangled her until she passed out and it also messed up her vocal cords so she wasn't able to speak properly after that incident.

And the Rabbit's stand for experiments like cloning, everytime scientists well we mostly see it in movies but everytime a scientist wants to test something or experiment stuff they usually use animals and most of the time rats and Rabbits are usually the ones that get tested the most including goats and monkeys.

Jeremiah 11:11 Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them.

He doesn't want to kill his mum in the end. Think about the symbolism of him putting the mask over his face...

I like how Ninetailedbrush mentioned how she had to face herself. I really love in this film how each of them has to face off with their other self

i watched this movie in cinemas with my friends, and holy shit, i remember the moment the twist hit me. it was like i forgot how to breathe. all i could do was gape at the screen in silence. it was amazing.

Ninetailedbrush always get the plot fast 😅😅 love you guys!

These actors did amazing job playing themselves then their doppelganger lol especially the mom lol

I honestly think Umbrae (Zora's dopperlganger) is the scariest of all of them. That smile is just too darn creepy!!

I love this movie because is not just an incredible horror movie, is and incredible movie period. Because even though a lot of horror movies are nice and have a good stories they are not very special in the directing or the acting is just ok or etc. But this movie is masterfully directed, the acting is incredible, everything, the editing, the music, the story with all the twists and how the characters were writen, everything is amazing. Can't wait to see what Jordan Peele will do next.

The concept alone is a step up from get out. Here's my take on this movie. It's about us in both roles. the privileged and underclass. A story that broadens and is layered underneath, but the centered of this is us. Humanity. the good and the bad. The tethered being the inner self, our desires, and talents courageous that are forced to stay within. the original the control factor limited. similar and very distinct. overall US is a talk about!!

Notice how Adelaide’s clothes gets more and more bloody throughout the film…

Loving the lights for the environment and as always the reaction! What fascinates me about this movie was that more than scare I felt very uncomfortable the whole time and that was actually more stressful than fear. The camera just stays still a lot of times let us with the scene, and the character, and challenge us the guess what really is happening. After watching it, I obseded in watching analysis about it, and from the social "undertone" about the social classes to the more psychological takes, I love that fact that is made in a way we can understand the general story but also sit a and discuss for hours and in many different ways what it wants to tell us. Really enjoy watching it again with you guys!

This movie has a Shymalan esque Twist Ending I did not see coming when I first saw this film.

Yeah this movie really freaked me out but was so well done especially the twist at the end 🙌

Both of Jordan Peele’s movies have big rewatchability (made up word, you know what I mean) factors because he is so intentional with every aspect of his stories. Plus the casting choices are always A++.

*I remember since the parents said the girl wasn't their little girl anymore (at the very beginning) I was like "They switched places"* I was so proud of myself once it was revealed I was right haha

The invisible man is so good! Can’t wait to see that reaction

Going back and rewatching makes me better appreciate all of the performances. Not only did they play their main characters but also their creepy af doppelgangers. Even the kids nailed it. That takes talent.

I think Black Swan would be a great movie to watch for you guys :)

yes!!, the invisible man one of the best choices to watch.

I really liked the movie. From the beginning it had my full attention which doesn't happen often lately. I have many questions about the movie though. How did they all get the jumpsuits and the scissors. Why the entrance is in the house of mirrors,unlocked at that. What happens to the "clone" when the "original" moves somewhere else or dies. Do they "magically" appear at the destination? How did they survived all these years there? How do they get the clothes? If they mimick their "original" version how did they escape from the underground. Or they could escape all along but they needed someone "thinking" to do that? I know it's all probably just metaphor and I shouldn't look for explanation of details but i can't help it 😆 Still a great movie

When Adelaide kills her real self in the end and totally tethers out😱 frightening as hell.

I think the movie points to how we live our lives and pay little attention to the shadow aspects of ourselves. Dad is suppressing anger. The mother is suppressing fear and loneliness. They are living lives that don't feel good to the shadow (or inner child) so the trauma gets deeper and continues to bubble under the surface. Now they have to reckon with it.

So, there are pop culture references in this film. As a matter of fact, this film is loaded with those references. 1. THE LOST BOYS was referenced as the film being made on the other side of Santa Cruz in 1986. 2. MICHAEL JACKSON'S THRILLER. Young Adelaide's T-shirt as well as Red's sinister smile at the end of the film. 3. HANDS ACROSS AMERICA was referenced in the 80's commercial as well as the tethered holding hands. 4. THE GOONIES was referenced with the "It's our time up here" speech from this film. 5. THE SHINING was referenced with the twins. 6. ALICE IN WONDERLAND was referenced with the whole white rabbit motif as well as the underground environment. 7. HOME ALONE 8. THE DUALING DANCE. 9. A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET. The one hand gloves (although thought of to be a reference to Michael Jackson) was actually a reference to Freddy Krueger. 10. The Biblical scripture JEREMIAH 11:11 was referenced throughout the film especially on the beachgoer's sign. 11. "I GOT 5 ON IT" by the Luniz is played while the family is traveling to Santa Cruz. It's also referenced in the music score when Red and Adelaide are fighting. 12. C.H.U.D. was referenced at the beginning of the film. Pay attention to the VHS tapes on the shelf. Also, the tethered dwelling underground. C.H.U.D. is the acronym for Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dwellers.

7:50 "Well, then she did get out somehow." Little did you know how right you were... XD This movie terrifies me, especially because I saw it with my family. The possibility of clones (evil or otherwise) of us existing made me lose sleep. The child actors were SO convincing, too--especially the actress playing young Adelaide/Red! And freaking UMBRAE!!

The Dad that plays the mothers father when she was little also plays in 2021's Candyman.

I was hoping you would watch this after you watch Get Out!

Literally my favorite Jordan Peele film. Food for thought, there’s a theory after watching a couple of times Jason was also switched as well. This based on his movement throughout the movie, not knowing how to do this mysterious magic trick, but his tethered version def knew the trick. How did the tethered version have a burned face when down below you can only mirror action and not actually do them. Also how he never actually eats meat line his mother at the dinner table..and ect.

this movie is so well put together. i watched it for the 3rd time yesterday. i recommend rewatching again cus the easter eggs and set-up are good and easy to miss/forget the first time watching

I find it kinda funny how James is always just James but Brush doesn't want to use his name It makes sense, a lot of people have a lot of reasons for not using their names, it's just a little funny when it's side-by-side

I love your faces during this whole film, and I definitely love the discussion afterwords. Such a brilliant, thought provoking movie. Thank you for this.

I’m loving this channel atm, binge watched all your haunting of hill house last night and it did not disappoint!

I read his putting the mask on as hiding. He did it whenever he was scared. He put it on when he was in the closet with his double and he had no intention of killing him then. He was just scared. He also had some deeper understanding of the tethered. He had that control over his double that no one else did, so I think he was a more intuitive person. The music at the end was the “Hands Across America” music. It tied the end back to the beginning.

You guys should watch Sinister. I watched it last night and I got hella scared

Frankenstein, his bride, Dracula, The Wolfman, The Mummy, The Creature from the Black Lagoon.... everyone knows of these monsters. But what about doppelgangers? MEET THE TETHERED!!!!🙂🙏= 😠🪓

Kudos to Ninetailedbrush for figuring out that surface world / copy switch before the reveal.

"Why is it all echoey?" Weirdly enough, that's genuinely what it sounds like there on a busy day/night. I used to live there, and I went there often with my family.

Hi guys, I'm a new subscriber. Love your dialog during film watching! You remind me so much of me when I was younger! Love to see two intelligent guys doing reaction videos! If you take requests I would recommend Ari Asters Midsommar, I think you'll like that film! Keep the reactions coming!👍

Almost didn't finish this movie, because around the 1 hour and 30 minute mark, it just seemed to be trying way too hard to be scary and way too long for such a simple concept. But then the twist came, and wow am I glad I finished. Good work Jordan Peele, almost said you only had a 'one hit wonder' movie with Get Out.

Not a horror movie, but you guys should watch The Green Mile. It's a Stephen King and Frank Darabont movie with Tom Hanks and Michael Clarke Duncan. Absolutely incredible film!

Thank you YT for recommending this channel. Subscribed!

I don't know if it was purposeful or if Jordan Peele just likes 80s punk music, but on multiple occasions you see t-shirts for the album My War by the band Black Flag. That song begins with the lines, "My war! You're one of them! You said that you're my friend, but you're one of them!" The film also has the feel of a Brian De Palma thriller, with its split-diopter shots, intercutting a murder with a ballet, and focus on doppelgangers, all of which have appeared in De Palma's films, sometimes frequently.

Hands Across America was an actual charity event. In 1986, around 6 million people participated. Raised money for hunger and homeless. Pretty cool. To organize such a thing

Pls watch fear street! It’s on Netflix btw (there’s 3 parts so watch them in order) pt. 1, pt. 2, pt. 3

Loved the twist

I surprisingly enjoyed this film than I initially thought I would, it exceeded expectations.

Jordan Peele is a godsent in the film industry. US and Get Out are so unique and two of my fave modern movies not just horror movies.

There is so many symbolism to uncover in this movie.

Yes, The Invisible man is so good! You choose the best ones, can't wait

hope y'all see this... keep producing this 🔥... ive been binging and y'all have been therapeutic for my last couple months

Finally!!!, I really enjoy watching your reactions, especially the ones that I've watched before, keep up, your content is special, 🦋.

The one that knew the movie acting like he was surprised at certain stuff or didn't know certain others is literally me when I'm re watching a movie with a new watcher and don't wanna spoil anything

the under lighting on horror based films looks so fucking good dude. been hooked on your reactions since my first time watching a video on your channel - Hobbit. love the interaction between you and Nine Tails. Thor too.

Ninetail is so smart. I feel like if you react to slasher movies like Scream. He would've known behind the mask in the mid of the movie. 😳😂😂

it's funny, i just saw your GET OUT reaction and then this releases the same day.

you guys pick the best movies to react to!

This is an awesome movie, thank you guys for the great reaction.

I loved the movie but why would the government stick the clones under an amusement park inside a funhouse?

It was crazy the way everything was adding up at the end. The way she was off beat when snapping her fingers to the song. The way she would stutter when thinking of the incident. The way she was moaning and making weird sounds throughout the movie. And the way she was staying to convince the son that "it was her" as yes she I his mom but not who she says she is.

Our family participated in Hands Across America. I don't remember much just getting to our spot on the side of the road.

Great reaction!!🔥 Can’t wait for the Invisible Man Reaction it was surprisingly good. Another single horror films that would be amazing is Mother! (2017)

The dude playing Elisabeth Moss' husband is the "it's free real estate" guy.

Hi! I made one of the posters for the marketing of this movie and I love watching people react to it!! ✌️😗 I'll be subscribing!

I love this movie more than get out, too!

The Exorcism of Emily Rose Jeeper Creepers (2001) Jeeper Creepers 2 (2003) Sinister (2012) Dark Water (2002) (original japanese) Dark Water (2005) (American remake ) The Possesion The Poltergeist Darkness Falls (2003) The Others (2001) They (2002) The Haunting (1999) The Faculty (1998) MaMa (2012) Ouija: Origin of Evil (2016)(prequel to Ouija) dont need to watch the 1st film in order to understand Rec (2007)(spanish) Quarantine (2008)(american ver. of Rec but slightly different) The Thing (1982) (If yall havent seen it)

Fun fact, the twins played Emma in Friends^^

The kid doesn't want to kill his mom at the end

Great reaction guys! I love this movie and the meaning behind the plot.. You should watch Invisible man! It's a an amazing horror movie about narcissists. Sorry for my English. Love from France ❤️

Yeah their outfits ate cool. Lots of people were saying they were dressing up as doppelganger for Halloween lol. The red jumpsuits represent what they wear in prison. That's most dangerous inmates if you killed someone. That's kind of like these people. They represent the oppressed cause not all in jail are guilty. So Jordan put that commentary in this. He has commentary in each movie. Heard the tell be some in candy man coming out in a bit this year. I can't wait lol.

That's social commentary on how we live. For us to live our luxury lives with all our stuff there has to be others that live in suffering and with out anything we have. Title us is referring to us but also us as in united states lol. How America has been built over the decades is touched on in this movie with the doppelganger and normal people ANF the above ground and under ground lol. So many layers lol.

Have been really enjoying your reactions. I 100% recommend The Exorcist (Scariest movie ever made), One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (Jack Nicholson in a lunatic asylum - what more do I need to say? Won just about every single Oscar that year.), Children of Men (A masterclass in direction, acting, writing, camerawork & editing), Predestination (The ultimate mindfuck movie) and The China Syndrome (Has a 7 minute sequence in which there is absolute suspension of disbelief and heart-pounding you feel like you are inside the movie). Trust me on these.

Love your reactions dudes

About haves and have nots ,but much more, full of symbolism , will watch again.

Very nice reaction you guys!, andd can you react to the movie "parasite" if you haven't yet, the movie was kinda inspired by this movie , it also has great cinematography, use of sound, acting and plot twist in the ending, just like this one. Anyways Keep on going on your work guys, you may not know it but your reactions and commentaries are making my week much better ☺️👍👍

I also just love that us also means America like, the US So it really speaks a lot of classism in America

Addie's kidnapping does make me feel lucky that I was safe both times I disappeared when I was 2.5 and 4...

haha okay Ninetailed (is that his name, I'm new) said it for me.. it's times like this when you need more than a bat.....

This is about imposter syndrome. This is about those of us that made it out of the awful, terrible trap of the hood but never felt like we deserved to actually be out...like it's a fluke. Like the hood is out there waiting to take us back and the fact that we made it out is just a trick, or a mistake. I think about it every day, how I don't actually deserve the soft and cushy life I live and that at any moment that shit will get taken from me and I'll be gone back to where i never want to go back.

No way he's gonna kill his Mom though. That's absolutely still his mother, I think he's just aware of who she actually is now.

As for the "rabbits" thing, Jordan Peele has a phobia of rabbits."If you look at the brain of a rabbit, they have the brains of sociopaths."

The dad is Winston Duke, from Black Panther.

I'm still waiting for your reaction in INSIDIOUS 3 AND LAST KEY!!!

I like these guys 😂😂

Please watch The perks of being a wallflower. It's so amazing!

Interesting perspectives in the comments. It makes me think. Lol. I see US and Get Out as a part of the same multiverse. Even Nope seems to me to be a part of it. Us for me was an observation of someone trying to gain control. Our not controlling being born into our situation but trying to control the outcomes through life experiences. Get out was similar for me except it observes the perspective of said external forces. Nope appears to be the result of having control but not truly understanding or respecting how what you control reacts. Or maybe I'm old and my perspectives are a result of my opinions of my own traumas 🤣🤣

For us to get out shirts and shoes and stuff there has to be someone out there making all that in probably less than desirable means. Were like the normal people and they're like the doppelganger. Plus the social class. You got rich people working class and poor . Definitely class commentary in this lol.
