Warning : The Following Review

The movie Get Out expresses the objective racial tension amongst white and black individuals to a large, diverse audience. The writer and director, Jordan Peele, displays the concept of racism throughout the movie. Racism is shown in the white characters using the black character for their benefit, such as taking a black person’s body part to improve upon their own features. The movie is about a white female, Rose Armitage who brings her boyfriend, Chris Washington, to see her family. Little did Washington know that his girlfriend and family run a hidden sex slave business, where they lure black people to the white community and hypnotize them to take control of their minds and bodies. The scenes throughout the movie show white people using black people as resources and show how powerless black groups are. Peele’s purpose is to show society that racism still exists and many are unaware. He does that by emotionally connecting with the audience.

I decided to analyze the film “Get Out” because I feel like it’s one of the best films out there. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a film that uses both comedy and horror at the same time while also talking about issues such as race, class and more. Watching the film in the movies, I was constantly on the edge of my seat worried about what’s going to happen next to Chris who is explained later on. I remember even when the audience at the movies were cheering along with characters in the movie which made it even more funnier but entertaining to watch. It’s not often you will see movies that talk about racial issues that are happening today because of the most of the time it’s about stuff from the past such as slavery.In addition, I also liked this film because I could somewhat relate to the main character. He was always apologizing and being understanding in situations that was not his fault but instead the other person which reminds of myself. It’s important for me to analyze this film because I believe there’s many symbols and hidden meanings that I didn't realize while watching the first time around which made me want to dig deeper.

I chose to write about the 2017 psychological thriller Get Out, which was written and directed by famous comedian Jordan Peele. Get Out is about an interracial couple Chris and Rose who are taking a weekend trip to meet Rose’s parents who are unaware that Chris is African American. Chris at first takes Rose’s parents, Missy and Dean’s, overwhelming appreciation for black culture and overly accommodating behavior as being nervous in regards to their daughter’s interracial relationship. However, as the plot unfolds a more sinister

The controversial movie Get out is a movie that none of the public expected which worked out in the director, Jordan Peel’s favor. The genre is unknown to even the director of the movie even though others have classified the film as a comedy. From first-hand experience of watching the film, I can assure you that, that is not the case. Get out deals with racism issues e.g., when the main character’s white girlfriend, Rose Armitage, played by Allison Williams, hits a deer on the way to her parent's house with her black boyfriend, Chris Washington, played by Daniel Kaluuya, with him sitting in the passenger side. When Rose calls the police to report the issue, the police officer proceeds to ask for Chris’ driver's license although he was not the one driving. Rose makes a scene telling the officer that it was not fair that he had to present his license and Chris was quietly trying to calm her down because he knew that it was not going to make a difference. By putting this scene into the movie, the director wanted to address some of the issues that African Americans have to deal with from the police.

Racism is a huge problem in today’s society. Get Out (2017) gives the audience insight of the pressures and treatments a black individual may experience. A Washington Post article written by Bethonie Butler states “As Chris warily interacts with Rose's parents (her dad has the sudden inclination to use such phrases as "my man!") and their inner circle, the story conveys what it means to constantly be on alert in certain settings and company. In other words, what it means to be black in America.” (Washington Post)

In his directorial debut, Jordan Peele steers away from his comedic reputation to make the suspenseful thriller that is Get Out. The film is very intriguing and keeps you guessing and on the edge of your seat throughout from start to finish as you follow Chris Washington, a young african american man, who travels with his white girlfriend to her family’s house when he uncovers a dark secret. For the typical fan of horror/thriller, it's a must see.

Microaggressions are now, more than ever, noticeable in the media. In the film, Get Out, director Jordan Peele uses microaggressions to illustrate his message that racism requires action with the use of discomforting methods, in the hopes of educating white people on their not so subtle racism. Throughout the film he utilizes the Armitage family’s microaggressions toward black people to obtain the audience's attention. The specific audience he is targeting is white people, who are most commonly guilty of microaggressions. He overuses examples of microaggressions to cause his audience to feel awkward and uncomfortable, similar to how a black person may feel when faced with the same remarks. For example, when Rose Armitage invites her black boyfriend Chris to meet her family, he is bombarded with microaggressions upon his arrival. Her family appears to overcompensate and try to relate to him in any way possible. Rose’s father, Dean, is usually the one who is making Chris feel uncomfortable. He not only constantly refers to Chris as “My Man” throughout the movie, but also states “I [Dean] would have voted for Obama a third time if I [Dean] could”(Peele). To a white person, her Dean’s words would have gone unnoticed, but to a black person it is painfully obvious that he is trying to seem relatable to Chris. Other members of the family, such as Rose’s brother Jeremy, also make Chris uncomfortable. He begins a conversation with Chris about sports, which leads to him saying “ you [Chris] could be a beast”(Peele). It is evident that this makes Chris uncomfortable because he is being belittled for his genetic makeup. Other characters in the movie are also guilty of using microaggressions, such as Mr. Dray. While talking to Chris and Rose, he states that “I [Mr.Dray] know Tiger”(Peele). This is a version of the classic statement “I have black friends”, which has been a recurrent microaggressive phrase used by white people for decades. This statement is most often used when white people are trying to disprove that they are racist. Strangely, the most blatant microaggressive comment in the film came from an unnamed Asian man, who states “Black is in fashion”(Peele). Since the Asian man is a fellow minority, it is strange

The degree of connection between all of the characters in the movie is so coincidental and interrelated to emphasize the point that we do not always know what is going on with everyone else we may encounter. It also accentuates the fact that racism is not one particular race against another. It also shows that we never know someone’s situation and what is happening in their life to make them act the way that they do if

Jordan Peele’s Get Out presents the notion of racism and injustice through the guise of a horror movie. While elements of horror such as gore and fear are included and the movie leaves us on edge throughout, Peele uses satire to highlight racial tension and anxiety in society. The protagonist, Chris, who is a black male, travels with his white girlfriend Rose to visit her parents at their house. Throughout the movie, Chris is faced with many weird encounters involving Rose’s family, leading up to the climax where Chris realizes Rose has tricked him and has been the antagonist the whole time. Rose’s family attempts to conduct an operation that will give Jim, a family friend, control of Chris’ body, but Chris manages

The cinematic film Get Out, directed by Jordan Peele, presents a scenario in which African Americans are targeted by white people mainly for their physical advantages. The plot follows Chris Washington, a professional African American photographer who goes away for the weekend to visit his white girlfriend’s family. Chris’ best friend, Rod Williams, is a TSA agent who is concerned about Chris going to a white family’s estate. Throughout the movie, Chris discusses to Rod the strange events that occur in the Armitage house. Get out displays how two people use their intelligence and ability to identify social cues to escape from an arduous situation.

In his 2017 horror film Get Out, Jordan Peele not only makes his director debut, but delivers a particularly insightful view into the state of racial affairs in modern America.The stories narrative follows an African American man named Chris, who goes to visit his white girlfriend's parents at their rural home only to uncover a horrifying plot in which the girlfriend and her parents are in fact racist and have been abducting black people and using their bodies in medical experiments involving the transfer of consciousness. On a surface level, the plot of the film has the ability to come across as quite simplistic in scope, an obvious labeling of privileged American whites as racist; however, a deeper analysis reveals careful consideration to

“Get Out” is a film that is uncomfortable to watch and can completely spin someone’s mind. Jordan Peele is the writer and director of this film. A relationship between a white woman and a black man doesn’t seem irrational in anyway, this day and age. A photographer named Chris Washington that is black man has been dating a wealthy white woman named Rose Armitage for the past five months. She decides things have been serious enough, so she wants Chris to meet her family.

The emotional reaction that the filmmakers intended for anyone who watch this film is that no matter what skin, hair and eye color is no one deserves to be labeled. No race should be discriminated and criticize. We should all get along and just be proud of where our roots come from. This film also intended for everyone who watch this film, is that there should not have to be obstacles to be proud of your own race.

For many centuries racism has being an ongoing problem and occurrence in many societies, especially in America. Many different measures have been taken to try and diminish the racism that clearly infests this beloved country, but none have ever truly worked. Although these measures have never effectively worked to erase racism out of our society as a whole, some have opened people's’ eyes in creative ways to understand that it is no joke. One measure that has somewhat worked is through media and the arts such as cinema, literature, and paintings. An example of cinema is Jordan Peele’s movie, “Get Out” that portrays racism through a sense of horror that captivates a viewer's mind to see and understand the underlying theme of it all. “Get Out” is about a young African-American man named Chris who falls for a young Caucasian woman named Rose. Together they are going up to meet Rose’s family who put on an act to make it seem like they are somewhat normal, but in reality lure young African-Americans into their home every year to auction them off to a group of older white people so they can use their bodies for pseudo-immortality. Peele’s horrific movie “Get Out” opens a viewer's eyes and mind to the different concepts of racism and how brutal and unjust it is to people of color.

“Oscars So White” a phrase that began trending on social media sites after the 2016 Academy Awards announce their nominees for Best Actor and Best Actress, it was predominately white for a second year in a row. The movie industry is no stranger to controversy and since its inception it’s constantly been guilty of underrepresenting ethnic people. It’s evident that film is a type of mass media that has a certifiable amount of power to influence audience’s views, yet this platform constantly disregards the need for diversity in favor of stereotypes. Movies such as Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961), Scarface (1983), and Pan (2015) are all guilty of this. The depiction of non-American characters in Hollywood movies are constructed around racial
