Ever since I saw the preview for Nope, I had a feeling that the whole "everyone looking up at something unbelievable" was gonna mean aliens. But I DIDN'T know it meant a jellyfish-kite-cowboy hat of an alien.
What an inventive and ambitious effort from Jordan Peele, probably my favorite from him so far (granted I've yet to see Us, and I haven't seen Get Out since it was new.)
I loved how on edge he leaves us on what the hell is happening or what this mysterious thing was. Many elements of the film were simultaneously creepy and hilarious, and a couple moments were genuinely disturbing, so color me impressed.
While the societal commentary may not be as heavy compared to something like Get Out, Nope still had something to say and he did it well. But as with many movies for me, I wish we got just a couple minutes more from where it ended.
