The Ending Of Jordan Peele’s New Movie ‘Us,’ Explained
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 май 2024
- There’s a lot to unpack in the ending of “Us” - the second horror film from writer-director Jordan Peele, following his 2017 box-office hit “Get Out.” Here’s everything important that you might’ve missed at the end of the film - and our analysis of what the Big Twist really means. Be warned: There are some serious spoilers ahead.
“Us” puts a terrifying spin on the doppelgänger concept, and it’s full of social and political messaging in typical Peele-ian style. We break down the symbolism and hidden meanings,along with all the clever references Peele slipped into the film (what was with all those rabbits?). Plus, our explanation of how “Us” ties in to “Get Out.”
The cast of “Us” includes “Black Panther” co-stars Lupita Nyong’o and Winston Duke alongside Elisabeth Moss (“Handmaid’s Tale”) and Tim Heidecker (“Tim and Eric”). Nyong’o and Duke play Adelaide and Gabe Wilson, a married couple with two children (played by Shahadii Wright Joseph and Evan Alex). On a beach vacation in Santa Cruz, the four Wilsons find themselves under siege by a family of scissors-wielding invaders - who happen to look exactly like them. The night descends into chaos from there.
It’s all set to an unsettling soundtrack, which features a creepy reworking of Luniz’s “I Got 5 On It.” Other highlights include tracks from Janelle Monáe, The Beach Boys, and NWA.
“Us” is out in theaters now.

Moral of the story "Look after the damn child"
@The Bromosexualbro. i dont get a thing about this movie
@The Bromosexual nope. What is it? I dont know Maybe because I'm from another country.
Just watched the movie. This is so true xD
💀💀💀
Yeah
yo who tf is paying for the electricity in those tunnels??
ugh your mind.
Us
Government
yo legit fam i couldnt stop thinking that the WHOLE TIME man sheeeet
wtf
I went to see this with my twin.....you should of seen the looks we got at the end
neil mac I would’ve honestly been scared of yall
I would be running away
*should have
Work Horse chill on dat
I wish my twin was still alive.
Poor Red, now I understand her pain when she tells her ONCE UPON TIME story as her tear runs down her face.
ikr if ur doppelganger destroys steal ur life. it would be so miserable.
How are you doing today
Yeah, and she sold the chance to kill the fake by dancing around instead of finishing the job
@@perfectlyimperfectmae6137 grow up its a film
Well we can all agree on that it was the dads fault for letting his daughter out of sight *father of the year*
Finally someone else points it out!
Exactly 🤣
i am so mad at him
So the mom didn’t have any part in it? Feminists lmao
Amazingly generations before this one were let out of their parents sight... AND SURVIVED! Quite the feat we all lived through that huh? We even survived riding our BMX bikes around the neighborhood. Crazy we all survived not having our parents up our ass 24/7...
Adelaide's shirt progressively becomes stained red throughout the film, slowly revealing her true origin.
raydanz 😨🤯
Dayuuum deep👍
It might just be blood idk
and before that the shirt and outfit was all white like the rabbits underground
@@angelicaestrella8308 it is blood you dumbass... Wtf the blood is staining her clothes making it more red
After watching the movie a second time sooo many things make sense now.
1) when they were at the beach with their children and the woman asked Adelaide what was wrong and she said she just has a hard time talking.
2)when the son went to use the bathroom and saw the man standing up with his arms stretched out to the side and blood dripping down his fingers. I figure that he killed his tether (the one they saw in the ambulance on their way to the beach), now he stands and stretches out his hands waiting for the others to join hands with him.
omg this makes so much sense
My question is at the end did the human Adelaide come back to up ground like At the end when she died too hare to explain it but i hope you understand what I mean
@@layaworld i get your question! i was very confused too lol
@@nadiayu1458 lol ikr
omg the second one i almost forgot that man
Scissors.
Two blades attached with a screw, sole purpose to *separate*
Maaaahnnn thats....WO!
no its to cut
Sonia Rosembaun get out, GET OUT!!
maryam k haahahajjsdjsjjs
Omg yessss
Remember the scene at the beach:
"You good?"
"Yeah"
"What?"
"I have a hard time just... talking"
Damn
Mud One omggg
Ohhhh shit. I've been supporting Red all this time
dannnnnnnnng man
Omm
I dont get it?
Red’s voice was strained because when Adelaide choked her she damaged her voice box, effectively silencing her adversary while giving voice to the oppressed.
Oh OHHH THAT MAKES SENSE ACTUALLY
It wasn’t Adelaide it was the twin lol
Lol the twins name is adelaide. Once they switched the original adelaide became know as Red.
JORDAN PEELE NEEDS TO BE PROTECTED AT ALL COSTS
Joseph Halliday ooh that’s cool I thought it was because she was surrounded by others who couldn’t speak English so she slowly lost the ability to speak it properly as she was only 7 when she was swapped and the tethered spoke in low grunts to communicate, so she picked that up but didn’t fully lose the ability to speak English and didn’t forget it.
Think about when the song “f the police* came on it says * f the police STRAIGHT FROM THE UNDERGROUND* I could be stupid but that blows my mind
Nope, you're actually correct. Notice how the music changed from Good Vibrations to F* the police
and how every time they called the police no one would answer.
And now we know there’s underground tunnels, over 100, in the us enslaving children
So according to Jeremiah 11:11 , the police is GOD 😱
it’s called foreshadowing, a film technique
I cant be the only one that came to RUclips to explain the movie after watching it
Carlee Sinclair has did, cause I still don’t understand the movie
@@uniqueEnergy83 me too lol i just got done watchin it
@@jirograndison1766 Lmao
@carlee Sinclair ong I just did the same thing💯
🙋♀️🙋♀️ Definitely not the only one
we were rooting for the wrong person the whole movie😰😱
Fr when I found out that they switched I didn’t blame red for doing this because it wasn’t her fault that the tethered was abandoned by humans and I didn’t want red to win but I felt sympathy
So you think that at least one of them deserved to be underground? The whole point it's that they both deserve a good life. Equality because the lack of if is what is destroing today society
中村ゆい Even If Red got what she wanted nothing would give back those moments of her life and she would never adapt to it again
中村ゆい right!!!!!
This is why Peele is the fuckin mastermind bruh. Im expecting more movies from him, he never fails to surprise us.
Wait so Lupita Nyong'o can win best actor and best supporting actor
Actress
@@cannottrust3710 actor, they changed it to actor for women too
No because she's a terrible actress
She was average lol
@@gaawartuom4319 how was she average?
This movie was soooo creepy. It didn’t scare me as in like “omg I’m never sleeping again” it scared me like “oh my god, that’s crazy” Imagine switching places with your doppelgänger and then your doppelgänger terrorizes you and tries to take their place back.
You explained what I feel perfectly. This movie gives me the chills. And when you realize you live in America it just makes it 10x worse lol! I am forever paranoid now haha.
I like to think that when Red kidnapped Jason, she told him the truth: how Adelaide kidnapped her years ago, left her underground, and took her place above ground. But, and here's the kicker: she does not urge him to side with her, or turn against his mother (because like it or not, Adelaide gave birth to him, he's her son, even though she's "fake"). And in the end, even though Jason knows the truth, he does not outright reject Adelaide, and how could he? He connected with his doppleganger the most, and Pluto was the most interested in studying his double. And ultimately, even as an imposter, Adelaide was a fighter: she escaped from hell, built a family, and killed to keep it intact. Red also escaped, but despite having arguably stronger motivation, lost. So who would you expect Jason to side with? The "true" version of his mother that is a total stranger, threatened his family, and is now dead? Or the "false" version he's known all his life, has killed to keep him safe, and is alive? There's really not much choice. Putting that mask on a final time is a sign of acceptance, and homage to his dead "brother". And Adelaide would surely appreciate that, she could not bring herself to kill either of Red's kids.
For a moment, I entertained the idea that maybe Pluto didn't actually die, and that Red kidnapped Jason to switch the boys off-screen. But I like the idea that Jason simply understands his mother better by the end, and accepts her, monster and all. If you think about how quickly the family was able to recover and fight back, some of that has to come from Adelaide, particularly how Zora goes from not knowing or caring where her brother is to beating anything that moves with a golf club to protect him. She sure didn't get that from her dad. And in a world where the Tethered are now above ground, the family is going to be fighting a lot. Best to have the mom that actually wins life and death battles on their side, in that case.
That was deep. Great movie.
Yh defo she told him. The mum looked at him in da car at da end kos she knew that he knew and the look on his face confirmed it but he put the mask on to basically say your secret is safe with me. After all shes still his mom.
Samoan Joseph why was the Jason clones face burnt?
Arthur Morgan x he burnt it
Jason is a tethered just like her. Thats why he was acting weird
8:40 that’s not the reason his face is burned. Pluto’s mouth is burned because when the real Jason was repeatedly playing with the magic lighter in the real world above, Pluto was doing the same but with a real lighter (since he’s tethered), causing him to burn himself.
Marc Jacobs omgggg now it make sense!!
Marc Jacobs - well spotted!
I don't get how the tethered got all that stuff, from the clothing to the lighter.
@@Crazy_Rich_Asian Magic. None of this makes ANY sense without magic.
where did he get a lighter? where did they get their matching outfits ? And 6 million pairs of scissors?
The real mystery is why is there not a speck of rabbit poop?
they use the rabbit shit as a dipping sauce
Thats what i said when i saw those scenes. Lol i have 3 bunnies, and thats just amazing
or ANY poop
Cause if they eated rabbits. They would eat the poop too
Laughing my black ass off...
Peele is an absolute genius.
Perfect depiction of - “ we are our own worst enemy” ...
Jesse Smith too many plot holes to call him a genius for this. Get Out was great though.
@@tomoliver2112 Yeh man..... Get Out was fantastic but I found this movie to be a messy effort.
more like a literal depiction...
@@tomoliver2112 All the “plot holes” are really just about suspension of disbelief. People are thinking about this movie too logically when that’s not what it’s about.
@@tomoliver2112 that isnt necessarily the point of the movie though
I feel so betrayed after seeing that the mom above WAS AN IMPOSTER. I feel so bad for the mom below, she was suppose to live the life she deserved and instead got a whole world of boring and crazy below.
Crazy I don't think cuts it. Remember in the beginning when she explains how things worked in their world. That she gave birth in a horrible way and had to cut her self open. She was a real human she felt that pain for real while she probably was surrounded by thedered beings who had no consciousness and were controled by the ones from the above. She was all alone in that situation. Maybe she started to teach them by then but still I think they were still in that controlling state as it took a while untill they were ready to go up. She had to have interractions daily with those beings. That explains how she gradually began to act be like them.
But that's not the point of the movie. None of them deserve to live life underground.
@@phantomOfTheOpera485 I never understood why she didn't just escape if she wasn't tethered. At some point she got out of the Handcuffs.
Life she deserved? Good to know you think people underground don't deserve a good life lol.
I feel bad for all of them red or not
"Who are you?"
"We're Americans."
Ap Rh I thought that was so deep when I heard it in the movie, I was literally breath taken
Durango Distler ikr
Bro I was like only if black people relalize we always been here we are Americans 😂before Columbus
Omg that was literally the funniest part
I thought you were lesbian
The last scene in the car where she stares at Jason and then smiles slightly was so creepy
If I was the boy and found out the truth. It wouldn't change how I feel about her.
@@joshuawalker6863 ikr.even if the mom would have switched,their relationship wouldn't be the same
@@joshuawalker6863 well no, that's his real mother.
Yeah, and way she was shaking her head slightly as if to say "nuh uh boy".
Well, she still loves him obviously. Throughout, she showed nothing but care for her children, so I don't think she'll harm him.
The human woman lived like one of them down there and become evil, while the fake on lived like a human and is a good person. It seems like the movie says the personality cames from the enviroment
I like this idea the best of all the comment sexrion
I thought that too... I have not seen one comment saying how she led a good life and had a nice family.. doesn’t excuse what she did 🤷♀️ the fake adalaide clearly adapted to the above ground world...
Except Red isn't evil - she's the Jeanne D'Arc of an entire race of oppressed people. This movie is about how the privileged unconsciously oppress people .
The way you put it makes everything make sense
Nature versus nurture
Did anyone notice that Adelaide was eating strawberries when the family was eating fast food???
Maybe she just likes strawberries damnit
Toasty nah it’s def a hint just like the frisbee
Toasty I believe it’s a hint because when she was eating strawberries, it’s probably because she went vegetarian since she grew up eating raw rabbit.
tamara muomua that and the color hints itself
dani what does the frisbee hint mean?
That explains why “Red” was the only one of the Underground people that could speak English, because she spoke the language for like 7 years before she got dragged down to the underworld.
And that’s why she knew about all the nice things that were above the ground because she once had all of those nice things.
If she was a real Shadow she wouldn’t have known about all of the things above, such as “ hands across America”
Robin tell r/whooooosh
cozmoz_crc on ig ugh get out
cozmoz_crc on ig whooooosh? What do you mean?
Robin tell it’s supposed to be the sound of an obvious joke going over your head, but that doesn’t even apply here so it’s a dumb use of it because 1. there’s no joke and 2. you’re just sharing thoughts
Katalystic ohhhhh☺️..... Okeyyy I get it, That person is just dumb...🙂
Maybe that's why she wasn't afraid to get out of the car and could calm down "those"ones
Quenn Judy yes and remember when pluto followed his son backwards so he can be burned,she tried to stopped pluto as if she’s worried
And that blonde chick couldn't kill her when she was chained to the bed.
OHHHHHHHHHH S**T! That's true!
@@donaven58 Totally, I thought that was a plot whole to begin with.
And she didnt kill the fake daughter completely
I always thought Pluto's face was burned because Jason would always flick a lighter but it had no fuel so it wouldn't spark. But in the underground Pluto's lighter has fuel so it would burn his face everytime they flicked their lighters
🤔
Something I didn't realise is, when they first get to the cabin, the dad makes a knock knock joke that I didn't understand ,after watching the movie I did though,
"Knock knock"
His daughter replies: "Who's there"
"You"
"What's wrong with you?"
Fake Adelaide didn't quiet like that joke.
S R actually zora says that not addy
"Ophelia, Call the Police."
"Playing F the Police by N.W.A."
Movie wins best soundtrack for a murder scene EVER! From "Good Vibrations" to that? Even the lyrics were hints. Brilliant!
Kelly Davis exactly when the kids entered the white dudes house nwa playing
Lyrics was
“Its gonna be bloodbath”
That's my favorite scene. It's supposed to represent alexia😂
Maybe they rigged it to send a message
"f tha police COMIN STRAIGHT FROM THE UNDERGROUND" damn
“F the police, coming straight from the underground”🧐
If you’re mad at the ending, then Jordan Peele did his job
Exactly!!! Someone who gets it!!!!
Why should we get mad rather than disappointed, and what was Peele's job ?
@@SCharlesDennicon if you're disappointed than I'm sorry you're a simple-minded fool
I’m mad at the whole movie because it wasn’t anywhere near as good as the trailer.
Oh? And what is his job exactly pray tell? Because alot of us believed the movie was okay. Not brilliant not even super good just okay. It has a ton of plot holes and it felt way too rushed. If anything I'm not even mad I'm just laughing at people like you who somehow believe this is some brilliant social commentary masterpiece when it's more or less a Creepypasta with a little spice thrown in. Seems to me like you're the simple minded fool here.
I also like how the clone subconsciously knew that the original was coming for her.
that's why shes scared when they went there lol
Remember when Zora said "I guess no one cares about the world ending." She was right. No one cared until it actually happened
The best line in the movie was: "¿Whats home Alone?"
I was like: Damm!!!! I feel old man.
Nahhh. The best line was "Theres no wifi... You dont need internet. You got the outernet!"
Relax it was just a family
Guillermo Rojas
Honestly how did the kids not know what home alone was? Im 16 and i grew up with that movie lmao
Guillermo Rojas My favorite line was "I have the highest kill count " 😭
Kris Joseph nah that part made me mad because they was wasting time
"If you wanna get crazy we can get CRAZY"🤣🤣
Lol
"now the cops is on their way"
Those bastards lied to me
Calm down it was just a family
xD
bob Bergas he did😂😂
When i saw the doppelganger family outside their window i was like "OH HECK NAW IM OUT- "
Jason was in the tunnel in a locker when his mom was fighting red. When he looked at his mom in the car funny it was almost like he knew everything. And she knew he knows
She probably told him or he overheard them talking
Adeline starts mimicking red (original) and he did saw her disagreement towards going to beach and how she never eats meat and just fruits(strawberry) and water
She also didn't want her fake son Pluto die and went to see whether fake daughter die
She also knew where to go and find her son without any help
@@abhijiths7637 ohh so that's why i thought why would she be so dumb following them. now my questions are answered. thanks.
@@abhijiths7637why didn’t she eat meat? And why didn’t she want her fake children to die??
When Zora ran over her double and said “Is she dead?” lots of people in the theater yelled “No!”
Michael O'Brien bro there was a girl she was high and like almost every time she would laugh so loud 😂😂
Notice the interaction between Adelaide and the daughter who died in the tree? ???? She was comunicating with her.
@@theresasweeney4299 same with the boy, she didn't want to kill him she tried to approach him instead and looked at him with pity and when you see the twist it makes sense, it's because she was like them before so she feels compassionate towards them
Someone in mine said “please don’t do it!” When she got out
When she got out the car during that part a white boy sitting behind me said: “No don’t! They’re acting like some white people right now”
😂 I find it funny that he was acknowledging that trope.
When the rich family got killed so fast by their tethered someone in the audience loudly said "Dang this second family is way more efficient" The whole theatre started laughing.
Stfu
SohiHien you gotta think about it though. Red had a lot of investment in what was going on. She had her life stolen from her. She needed to let that be known. She is the sole reason all this is happening
@@Zman2300 I'm well aware. I wasn't the one to make that comment in the theater. It was funny though and kinda true. I mean every single one of them failed to kill their surface counterpart but the other guys killed their surface people within 5 minutes. Red's family hadn't even stopped staring at the house from outside by their 5 minute mark.
@@nonso1078 ????? I didn't make the comment in the theater. Just stating what happened during my experience when seeing this movie.
hearing about all these supposedly funny outbursts I am so glad I waited a few weeks to see this and got to enjoy it in a near-empty theater :/
Us:
Police: we will be there in 15 minutes.
They never came did they
@@loisatterby2934 Actually they did but were killed by their tethered.If you watch the scene where their doppelgänger
s invaded their home, while Red was telling her story you could've hear a couple men screaming from a distance coming from outside. That could've been the cops. Just my theory
ikr a person’s entire world can change
They got killed.
They are not the only family being killed. The whole city is calling for the police. The 15 mins is acceptable
My favorite part is where the white dude slicks his hair back when the other wife reaches for him
lol
that was hilarious fr
When the two women were fighting in the tunnel and the instrumental version of “I Got 5 On It” played I was geeking
Hoseok94 that was amazing.
The editing cutting to the ballet throughout the fight accompanied by that soundtrack gave me goosebumps
Even more cool when you realize that the two songs are like the tethered as well... one is normal and the other is different/creepy. Also doesn’t have any words, just like the tethered can’t speak.
Best part of the movie tbh
Yes that was the best part
My only question is where all them damn scissors come from??. Staples must had a blow out sale. 😆
Raphael Juniel this comment needs more recognition
That’s a good ass question.
Doctors?
@@joshualastimosa5713 wtf
Yooo then Jones was sharp as hell too lol 😂
Imagine if the guys from Get Out sped past them at the end. 😂
LMFAOOOO
Oh my
The real question is, who even made that mirror maze above an underground prison?
The goverment
They litteraly say it in the movie
@@itshorizontal yes it's always the government. Maybe some government made this coronavirus we have today and spread it like wildfire. ☹️ The Mist, Stranger Things, The Blob. They all give hints!!!
US
idk if it is true but i meant it as a joke
@@hungryhikaru united state
What i wanna know is how would fake red know to ambush real adelade and abandon her down there to take control of her life if the tethered cant speak????? She said that the tethered existed for generations without purpose so as the new ones are born and the old ones die, who tells them that they are tethered and that there is an "above" if they cant speak????? Are they just born knowing that they got the short end of the stick?????? In fact, fake red wouldn't even know what she looks like cos shes been down there since always (assuming they have no mirrors) so how did she know that she was trapping her other self and not just some random person????? Why didnt she try to hurt real adelaide parents when her first reaction to seeing a real person (real adelade) was to hurt them and trap them??????????? Am i getting to technical here???
In the hands across America t-shirt, blue was on the top of the people holding hands, and red was on the bottom. The doppelgängers lived underground and wore red jumpsuits.
In the beginning of the movie Addy is sitting on the beach and a red frisbee lands directly on the blue dot on the towel. This means that the doppelgängers (red) will dominate the people on the surface (blue).
Claire Bear YOOO
I thought the frisbee landed there to symbolize how she’s the only imposter in the group of surface dwellers.
Rose Mapua me too
@@whatsittoyou6962 that's pretty good too
Whooh! Thanks for this. I was also mind blown about that scene but I have no clue that it is what it means! 😲
It's like RUclips knew I was confused..
Madeline Yo Me too!!!!
Madeline Yo Exactly lol I just watched it for the 1st time.. I love movies that I can’t predict tho
Another blaring thing to add in is when they ask something like "What are you?" and Red replies, "We're Americans!"
Thus explaining the film title
Adelaide looked at them all as her family if you noticed. She was pleading with Pluto to not walk into the fire, she went to check on the daughter in the tree and tried to comfort her. She didn't want to kill Red but felt she had no choice. It's all very sad. What a phenomenal movie. Full of Gnostic symbolism and even the characters names are important. The clone of Jason, Pluto, is burnt from Jason playing with fire. I felt awful for the clones. What a twist.
I have never walked away from a horror film feeling the way I did after this one. My god, my heart hurt.
Please tell me you saw Get Out as well
He did a good job.
@Oxi Clean well it's not hahahhahahahha
lanethelame yes. But I knew what Get Out was about. You knew that from the trailer--racism. I went into it expecting it to be heavy. For "Us", I had no idea what I was getting into. The plot twist for this movie hurt my heart. I was sad for Red. She didn't even "get out" ...Get Out has a much "happier" ending.
Ash Settle I mean...you spend like 7 years as "Adelaide" and like 30 years as "Red"...you are Red.
Who else felt some kind of way at the end of the movie when they found out they had been rooting for the wrong woman.....lol...
That fight scene between the 2 of them at the end along with the music was off the chain.....
Same thing I said, that part was amazing
Actually the tethered Adalai was the one who I was rooting for
I honestly feel conflicted because like...neither of them are “bad” per-se. Red had her life stolen from her and Adelaide grew up to be a seemingly decent person. But in the end it’s like Jordan is saying, on the surface, people are one way, but look beneath that, and now things are perceived in a different way because you don’t know what lead this person to do the things they did.
me
That part was hype. Wasnt even afraid anymore! I was like...Final Round. Fight!
anyone else really curious what the real adelaide whispered to the fake one when they started fighting??
Maybe told her “I told Jason the truth about who you are”
Do u remember the beginning scene where fake adelaide says"you can do whatever you set your mind to"well that makes sense now
Saw it tonight. Very unnerving. Anyone else catch how she knew exactly where to go when she got inside the Funhouse towards the end?
e s
yup i noticed that when me my mom and my cousin were talkin bout the movie on the ride home
Because she came from there the mom we all thought was the real one was the doppelganger. From the beginning the mom said when she saw her self she ran but when they showed what happened near the end of the movie that never happened she was actually caught and dragged to the underground and was left there until she grew old and went to hunt down the person who stole her life
Omg yessss I was saying the same thing 😭
e s yes I wondered that but couldn’t piece it together. Said I was gone watch again
e s I was thinking the same thing I was like “where the hell is this girl going”
The underground scene when she flashbacks, all the clones replicating rides, dates, rock paper ✂. So freaky
The roller coaster one was really scary to me. It made me think of the "excitement" of roller coasters, a ride that can and has derailed at any point in time. Their feigned enthusiasm was equally disturbing.
Matthew Andino yea, on both rides! Did you notice the couple did scissors instead of rock
That explains the sheers two blades connected at one single point. One doesnt move without the other
Everytime I hear “I got 5 on it” I get paranoid now because of this
what does it mean
Gotta admit, the tethered remix is so good tho 😌
SAME
Now y’all can’t tell me it wasn’t 15 minutes and still no cops showed!!!
There’s a reason they never showed ;)
the cops weren’t available because everybody was calling the cops that night
The cops had doubles too 👀
Cops were busy...cops could have ran into their doubles. All kind of different reasons
JR 2943 seriously?! I thought the same but it hit me when they went to the family friends house and they had doubles and I new the police probably did as well. My only thing was why that chosen night to finally come out from the underground/portal.
The part when Red says “ if it weren’t for you I probably never would have danced “ made sense later because after the switching incident the therapist suggested dance to “ help her find her voice “. Also notice how Red seemed to be the better more graceful ballerina. She was always tip toeing around and during the fight scene Adelaide just couldn’t quite get her hands on Red as she kept dancing circles around her. Adelaide said she stopped dancing because she “ burned out at 14 “ but Red was prancing around like a ballerina still up until her last moments. Wow! I have to watch it again.
Shit!!! This makes sense. So many questions so many answers
@Sheng Lazarte Think it's just a nod that even though she traded places with Red (the previously privileged person who got to be in the light) she eventually started to become privileged in her own ways. Giving up on aspirations that some people don't even have the luxury to afford. Just goes to show the only difference between the mole people and them is just a matter of time and place.
There's one thing I don't get here. Red was de "real" and Adelaide the "fake". The fake ones usually imitated the actions of their "real" counterpats in the outside world...
Then, why Red (being the Real person) was imitating Adelaide (the fake one) when she was up in the surface and not backwards????
Adelaide was supposed to imitate Red no matter where she was, underground or in the surfece... Right? IDK. Someone explain me this please.
@@rud_is_here looking for the answer to this too lmao
@@rud_is_here Neither one is supposed to be the dominant one, they made tethereds to control people on the surface but the ones on the surface ended up dictating the actions of the tethered. So they share a soul and whichever one of them is actively making choices is the one that controls the two.
The message at the end: if given the opportunity, you can be a productive member of society just like everyone else. Granted, “Adelaide” still had her “tethered” tendencies especially at the end where she brutally murders actual Adelaide. You’ll never truly leave your past, but you can change.
If you look closely Red and addie have different haircut, unlike other 'twins' with their upper ground. Its a sign that Red dont have desire to be like Addie nor Addie have it (since she is the actual underground twin).
Also, apparently when Red takes Jason towards the end, she tells him the truth about how his mom is part of the tethered which is why he seems to know the truth about Adelaide.
It is implied that the boy has a hunch himself by seeing the strange behaviors of his mom, rather than Red telling him.
Although it is not actually shown in the movie, some have suggested that the sons were switched, perhaps a year before they took the trip to the beach.
@@willms7173 That makes absolutely no sense. A year before they went to Santa Cruz? Really? What kind of an idiot thought that up?
That doesn't even fall in alignment with when Red says she gave birth to a boy who loves fire, nor the fact that Pluto acts creature-like, nor the fact that Pluto doesn't even speak and just grunts like the other tethered. The facts don't support that idea because Red clearly raised Pluto and Adelaide clearly raised Jason.
But no, let's just say that we came up with our own secret scene outside of the movie and make that a legitimate theory. What kind of an idiot would...
@@GrubKiller436 I don't know, but Pluto seems to act more creature like than the rest of the tethered. A sequel (if made) might reveal more about the original movie.
@@willms7173 That's why he's not Jason. He was born in the underworld.
Now I thought I already told yall to get off my property
M'BAFA!!!!M'BAFA!!!!M'BAFA!!!!M'BAFA!!!!
PS. Black Panther reference
At that part i was like "YOU PICK UP THE WRONG HOUSE FOOL"
I feel so bad for Red 😭 she was the only one that didn't kill
This movie has made me afraid of my own shadow. I can’t walk anywhere without feeling I might get attacked by the tether.
It has nothing to do with shadows!!
my favorite little moment in this movie is after adelaide kills red (actually the real adelaide), she finds her son and tries to comfort him by telling him that the evil family is gone. he gives her this tiny little head shake, which confused me at the time but looking back makes so much sense. he knew the thethered would never be gone from their family, because his own mother was one. holy shit so creepy
how did he kno she was tethered?
@@drehot118 i feel like he just sensed it. the mom & son were shown to be especially close thoughout the movie, so maybe hr just kind of guessed. hed also seen her behaving like a tethered a couple times before.
drehot118 he knew because he watched the final fight. When Adelaide killed red, she started grunting and acting like a tethered.
drehot118 could also be that red told the son the truth when she took him to the underground
How would his mother be one if the real adelaide was gone from a kid? His real mother is the fake adelaide
This some deep shit, Jordan Peele is a genius. Who ever thought dude from Key & Peele would create such brilliance?
FloridaMan excuse me ☝️Key and Peele IS genius!
FloridaMan hes the tyler perry of horror
FloridaMan same thing my grandma said
Am I the only one who notices when you put the two movies together it makes “Get Out of Us” ?
I wouldn't say Peele is a genius. Get out was good but this movie was kinda ass to me. The ending made no sense
It’s cool how we get a basic summary of movies after watching them but when we dig deeper, it’s so interesting
I gotta say, I enjoyed the scene where "F*ck the Police" was playing in the background.
I knew she was off when she starting snapping off beat to “I got five on it “ in the begging 😂😂😂😂😂
I thought toooo
It like pissed me off at first I was like “JORDAN, LUPITA, YOU ARE NOT ON THE BEAT UGH WTH” and when I realized why it happened I left going “The....the genius of it...Jordan Peeles mind....Lupita’s performance....wow....”
I said the samething too lol
Sky He I said, now why is she clapping on the 1 & 3!? I got upset at that! Normal Black people clap on the 2 & 4!
Beginning
Is it me but when Zora was running..I felt like she was taking fast baby steps 🤣
Lmao meeee too
Ikr I was like I thought u ran track and field
Byron Ledford lmao I said the same thing lol
LMAOO YES OMG
I was like she run like a white girl in a scary movie😂
Jordan is a prodigy, he's as good in comedy as he is in the horror genre. US was such a fresh experience away from all the BS horror that is being fed by mainstream franchises
Jordan Peel created his own Cinematic Universe...
The part that terrified me the most was her voice and the family outside
Just them standing out there being so freaking still was scarier than anything else...psychological terror...
For me her voice and the ending creeped me out
Mia Monroe
In your opinion.
@@jennikifm2 Ok.
It was definitely interesting. Unfortunately majority of the theatre I was in was laughing when she started talking
Actually Red's voice sound like that because of a condition called spasmodic dysphonia which happens when a very traumatic experience happens to you and your vocal cords spasm and it's hard to get air through it thus making that raspy sounding thing
Thanks for googling for us
@@123whits123 np😁
Also, in an interview, Lupita mentioned that in her research for the role, she learned people who don't speak for a long time, sound that way when they start talking...
okay smarty-pants
I actually thought her voice was like that because red choked Adelaide when they first met
Okay but my question is then, why did the "real" addy keep reffering to herself as the shadow?
she accepted that as her identity
Something to do with the fact that shadows get longer at certain lightning conditions
She was kept in the darkness for so long
Well because she became the shadow? They switched places.
I live in the same city that this was filmed (Santa Cruz) & lemme tell you I was scared as hell after watching💀
the soundtrack was dope, especially at the movies with their loud speakers
Adeniyi Oladipupo It was absolutely amazing, but I dont think Ill ever be in the modd to stream it on Spotify.
Lol I was bopping my head the whole time
If I analyze this movie too much my brain hurts from all the how's lol
Right
💯💯💯🤭🤭🤭
Me too. This movie gives me brain hemmorhage
I know right and now maybe i couldn't sleep until my brain entirely tired of thinking the ending and that did not make any freaking sense
@@hungryhikaru basically the whole movie is about doppelganger and i assume we all were rooting for the wrong person cause the ending shows the "mom" switched with the "real version" which cause the 'real version' to grow hatred towards the world how unfair her live is .IMO i'd give this movie 6.5/10
Goddammit
Movies like this makes me absolutely amazed by how deep and powerful human creativity can become
The main character was named after an Australian city. Should've known she was from down under all along!
omg
lmaoooo
I need to watch this film another 7 times for all this to click in
Big facts
Watching the movie in total of 11 times is recommended.
no you don't, it's just the tired ass trope we've seen a billion times of "evil one replaces the good one and she smirks in the end to let us know"
AllAtousa don’t be stupid enough to waste all your time on this stupid movie
Right
Adelaide is the name of a city in Australia, the Land Down Under.
omninexus wow !!!

Why do I watch this kind of stuff when it’s bedtime 🙃 now I gotta turn on some cartoons 😖
1. "Get out"
2. "Us"
3. "Y'all"
Get out of the US y'all.🤔???
Whats yall
what’s y’all?

I think he trying to predict the name of the next movie😂
I was rooting for the wrong girl all along 😭
MEEEEE
We all were
@@kumar1400 Right 😂
Why
Kevine Anny Mizero no you weren’t
After watching this movie as soon as I stepped outside I looked down at my shadow and apologized for any misunderstandings
Long story short, JORDAN PEELE IS A GENIUS
Not by this movie. This movie is a mess
agreedddd
When you watched so many mystery/horror movies you begin to unravel the plot and twist of the movie before they're revealed, it's a powerful feeling😭
I found it weird that she showed sadness when the doppelganger of her son was set on fire, and how did that she knew exactly where to find the "clone" of herself in that secret room,and how weird it was that the "clone" was the only one able to speak, but I didn't think about it being the REAL mother until I saw the way the boy looked at her when he came out that locker, then I had the idea that she could of been the clone all along...but thought I was reaching, this movie was face paced and hardly even gives you time to try and catch on it was a unique and amazing movie.
Don't call her the real mother it's not like she gave birth to those kids, she gave birth to the monsters and she just wanted revenge while the actual clone wanted a normal life so she did. She had a normal life and it still feels like the original is the villain lol.
Did u all notice that in f tha Police by NWA one line says”f tha police coming straight from the UNDERGROUND”, Tetherds came from the UNDERGROUND.
Nothing made it into a frame of that movie that didn't have some meaning to it that further deepened the story.
No it’s bc Black People stay saying ftp but as soon as they need help they’re calling them
@@Danielle11533 only sistas do that to brothas my dear
@@Danielle11533 huh? 🤣🤣
@@Danielle11533 Did you see the movie, its referring to a meaning in the movie, and it is not to simply disrespect the police
...smh...imagine if someone is talking about cars and someone walks up to them and say my president's name is not cars!
That would be less confusing than what you said...please get to know the context.
Something i wanna point out, Zora wears the hoodie with the word “ Thỏ “ on it , Thỏ means Rabbit in Vietnamese btw
Evan Chan damn i didnt even notice but you right
She did also wear a bunny shirt in the beginning. Btw did u know Jordan Peele voices the bunnies that were being eaten alive, along with the deer that got hit in Get Out?
Run rabbit, run rabbit, run, run, run, don't let the tether have their fun, fun, fun :)
Very nice 👍🏽
Thank you! I was wondering what that 👕 meant!
The scariest part of Us, for me, is when Red told Adelaide that she had to perform a c-section on herself, while Adelaide was giving birth to her children in a shiny hospital.
It reminded me of a story that an inmate in a privately run jail in the US got given sugar packets from McDonald's spread on her cuts post surgery, because the jail didn't stock up on disinfectant and a nurse who was treating her "remembered" that sugar can kind of work as a disinfectant.
This gave me pause at how inhumane the underclass and marginalised can be treated in the US, or anywhere, and we on top of the chain could live our whole lives pretending not to see their plight
Everyone is wondering how Jason got Pluto to walk into the flames and I’m wondering how the Adelaide tether got the real Adelaide to have babies 🤔
1. No idea why Pluto imitates Jason, he also did that in the closet. What's weird is they're the only twin that does that.
2. During the scene in the living room, Red (or shadow Adelaide) mentioned that she was forced to marry (kind of) shadow Gabe cause basically they mimic whatever happens on the surface.
Hope that made sense?
@@Andy-kf4ug ooooo shi that make sense
Honestly, just scrolling through the comments under these analysis videos are even more eye-opening. You guys are BRILLIANT. 👌
thank you
Yuh like I noticed stuff and had the dots and had a hard time connecting some of them. It's nice to have an explanation idt it's always possible to catch everything the first time around watching
Theres a theory that the son Jason, was switched just like his Mom last summer. It explains why his actions are alittle off. The girls calling him weird at the beach, him digging a tunnel in the sand, him not remembering how to do the magic trick, using language his parents have never heard him use before. Just a theory, but its super interesting to say the least.
ESP Daniella facts
You’re right I’m not even watching the videos just going straight to the comments lol. Hearing different perspectives makes me want to see it again!
Just watched the movie it was hella good but I was so mad at the ending cause I loved the mom 😭
Yeah that whistle at the end really broke my heart. It's like she was trying her best to reclaim what was rightfully hers. But the Fake One was more determined. 😔😔😔
That laugh she gave after killing the original mom... scary as hell
SUN WARRIOR ik 😭😭
milking cow suprise ikrr
btw guys you're missing that the one that won WAS THE REAL MOM LOL
Umbre is the scariest character by far.. FFS look at her @ 8:49
She could have her own spin off
I love how Peele's movies have me saying "WTF?" at the end. 👏😂
This explains so much I was wandering why she got worried when the sons doppelgänger was about to walk into the fire.
King Judus and then the fact that the “fake” red took the real jason
Skye Walker omg my head exploded
And why she is the one who find Red
@King Judas The meme
Wait, what? I didn't understand.
Explain pleasee
Plutos Burnt face imo; the light that the son was flicking that never worked only works in the tunnels so he just kept burning him against his will
britney icky OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! It Makes sense now🤯🤯
britney icky nah. the sons are switched as well - just like mom.
Jason ( who’s Pluto now ) must’ve did the actual trick before the switch and his tethered been trying to do the trick ever since and never could
Which is why Jason doesn’t know how the trick works ... he doesnt even know what it does
The whole movie the family is seeing a new Jason all of a sudden that doesn’t know anything
Doesn’t know how the magic trick works ..
Doesn’t know where the bat is ..
doesn’t know how to get out the closet ..
Everyone is shocked at his language now ..
Mom and son can’t snap on rhythm to the original i got 5 on it ( remember the tethered lacked soul underground )
Then remember Pluto snaps on beat while hes backing into the fire - while the movie version of ‘ I got 5 ‘ on it plays
The movie version of i got 5 on it plays only during sons car fire scene and mom ballerina scene .
The reason why Pluto has the burnt faces because Jason was using a magic lighter which would never ignite but Pluto was using a real one causing him to burn his face
worthy4u you have to watch again. There never was a magic trick - he just couldn’t light a lighter cause he’s too slow . That’s the purpose of the snapping car scene. If tethered have no soul - how is Pluto snapping to the beat on the car fire scene ?
How is Red and Pluto both able to do things they aren’t supposed to do ? They proved they have rhythm.
That’s the whole purpose of the ballerina scene. While Ad was messing up her performance above ground - Red was slaying it down below that the tethered seen her as a God/Leader of the pack.
Why Red and Pluto have their voices taken away from them ? We know normal tethered can’t speak English so why voices taken away Like done on purpose?
Why is Red and Pluto sitting down like little kids during the living room scene ? She’s sitting Indian style - he’s sitting like a pet .. they have the mind of Kids - she even starts off her story with “ once upon a time “
Why do Red and Pluto get 1 on 1 talks/alone time with their counterparts INSIDE ?
While Dad and Daughter counterparts are sent OUTSIDE to kill.
Pluto and Jason even have their damn closet scene with Pluto showing him how to do it lol he’s just too slow to grasp it .
How is Red and Pluto literally a beat AHEAD of their counterparts when it’s supposed to be the other way around lol ??
Daddy touches his glasses - tethered dad goes to touch his.
Sister peaks thru car window n walk - tethered daughter then does the same .
And so on ...
worthy4u if you watch again , Jason doesn’t even eat the meat at the table . He runs to get the lighter ( so he hasn’t even had the lighter on him ) - moms eating fruit . We see Jason eating later a bowl of cereal
For starters, I so want to blame the parents at the fairgrounds! The dad was wrong for being that intoxicated that he's not able to watch his daughter. And the mom already had a gut feeling that she should take Addy to the bathroom with her, whether Addy had to use or not! ALSO, I was weirded out how Jason knew something was up with his mom at the end....but I now realize Red could have easily enlightened him with the truth of what went down when she was younger. When the fake Addy rescued him from the locker, he was different THEN and didn't even hug her back smdh.
I guess Jordan Peele is on one.... again! His mind, sheesh 🤦🏾♀️
Whenever it comes to western horror films, it always gives us a cliche picture of a haunted dolls or houses... however this director never fails me to make me enjoy his movies 💓 there are scenes where theres some laughter... that's what I love in a thriller film and why I love his movies :))
