The Actor and Filmmaker scores a win and rises tension with his beautiful horror release because of its “Post Racism” and “Anti-White” undertones. Peele’s Film portrays the gruesome reality of liberal racism according to The Guardian.
​
“Get Out” raked in $30.5M in the box office its opening weekend with only a budget of $4.5M according The Detroit News.

Peel is usually known for his humor and comic relief on his Comedy Central sketch series “Key & Peele” and as a cast member on “Mad TV.” However, the Comedian takes a sharp left with this suspenseful release.

Like Most Films regarding racism and inferiority there will always be some controversy. I enjoyed the Content and issues the movie brought to light of. Things such as white supremacy and unfair treatment of blacks are very relevant issues in our society because it happens every day. It amazes me how the critics can get mad over a so called “Anti-white” film when “Anti-Black” Films have been being made for decades.

I enjoyed how the film portrayed how African Americans are unknowingly becoming slaves to society. We Are always seen as inferior, but yet we are always wanted for our skills and genetic make-up I’m happy that critics are mad about the actuality of the world we live in. I think more films like this should be made in order to wake people up on how racist our society still is. Sometimes the truth hurts and it is just something that they will have to get over.
