They Are Not Alone! On-Air Film Review of Jordan Peele’s ‘Nope’
Rating: 3.0/5.0 |
CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com appears on “The Morning Mess” with Scott Thompson on WBGR-FM (Monroe, Wisconsin) on July 21st, reviewing “Nope,” the latest from filmmaker Jordan Peele (“Get Out,” “Us”), in theaters beginning July 22nd.
Daniel Kaluuya is O.J., the son of a horse rancher (Keith David) who specializes in providing the animals to the movies. When an odd occurrence happens and his father dies, it’s up to O.J. and his sister Emerald (Keke Palmer) to keep the business going. At the same time, a theme park operator named Jupe (Steven Yeun) desires to own OJ & Emerald’s ranch, and uses a UFO in the area as collateral for getting them to sell. This event ensnares a tech expert (Brandon Perea) and a weird cinematographer (Michael Wincott), and they are not … as is said … alone.
