The movie tells the tale of an interracial couple who ventures into the girlfriend’s hometown to visit her parents who have no idea that her boyfriend is black.

Portrayed by the brilliant Daniel Kaluuya, the character finds himself trapped in a web of deceit, disgust and danger when he unearths a secret linked to slavery.

‘Collider’ caught the movie early and offered this:

Get Out takes the initial premise of Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner and then twists it with The Stepford Wives to create a compelling, thoughtful critique of white power. Peele, of course, isn’t arguing that white people are out to hypnotize black people. Instead, Get Out is a stinging criticism of the white liberalism that carries itself as empathetic towards blacks, but that empathy only extends as far as white control. Peele isn’t taking aim at neo-Nazis and other whites who would angrily shout the n-word. They’re a lost cause.
