Yep, completely agree. It's a truly disturbing, well paced and affecting film that deserves the notice it's getting. Won't spoil any plot points, you'll be grateful for the ride.

I enjoyed it but I'm not sure it's worthy of all of the praise it's getting. It's basically The Stepford Wives.

I loved it, saw it when it first came out. The stepford wives and guess who's coming to dinner are among the films that the director Jordan Peele has said inspired him. And I have to say for a comic actor directing his first film it's pretty amazing, he juggles horror, satire and racism all in one hell of a ride.

nothing on my watch list and so decided to check this out
when it came on last night.

Really?! Effing REALLY??! You guys actually liked this??! The whole premise was
so stupid!!

So...You're telling me that you can put your brain in a young person...
BUT!! wait... you want to spend your new youth cutting wood
and waiting on your grandchildren like 1802 plantation slaves??!!

and really...'Black is the new IN'??!! WTF!!!?! and this doesn't throw
THOSE PEOPLE into a riotous, street burning rage of outrageous racism???!!

Gawd ... I'm just not getting the rules in this 'new normal' world of ours!

Okay, maybe just avoid certain kinds of movies, with certain kind of actors and certain kind of directors. That way you will be much happier. :D
