Jordan Peele’s directorial debut, ‘Get Out,’ crossed $100 million at the box office last weekend. We’re all STILL crazy about this movie! And we’ve got plenty of reasons why you need to watch it again.
Warning: Haven’t watched Get Out once? Look away! Major spoilers follow…
According to Box Office Mojo, Get Out currently sits at $115.6 million. With a reported budget of $4.5 million, this is an amazing victory! Not only is Peele a first-time film director, but Get Out features stars who audiences aren’t too familiar with. So what about Get Out captured our attention so much?
Get Out follows Chris (Daniel Kaluuya), a young photographer visiting his girlfriend Rose’s (Allison Williams) parents for the weekend. This is the first time Chris meets Rose’s parents, and let’s just say no one makes the best first impression.

Immediately, Chris feels something is off, but he never imagined how serious the situation was. Audiences are then carried through a roller coaster of feelings, shocks, and horrifying events. Buckle up!
Get Out is a brilliant piece. As everything unfold, it’s hard to wrap your head around what is happening, who to trust, and who will be getting out alive. But there is also so much more!
The film is packed with Easter eggs, references, and symbolism, as well as clues we all easily missed watching the first time.
