The trailer looked fun but I just had a feeling it wasn’t going to be good. Heard some good reactions on a movie podcast I follow so I decided to watch it today. It is really well done. Lots of funny parts, and just weird enough to not be offputting. Felt kind of like a combination of Get Out and Sorry to Bother You, with some Blaxploitation and retrofuturism thrown in. John Boyega was really good and Jamie Foxx was a delight as always. Teyonah Parris seemed a lot more comfortable in this than her roles in the MCU. Probably just because she had a lot more to do. There’s also a great actor that has a smaller role that I was not expecting to be in this, but he was a welcome addition. Not going to say who and give it away though. I don’t really have a lot to say because I don’t want to spoil anything, but I definitely recommend it. Funny enough, there is a Tyrone in the movie, but it’s not any of the main characters, but it’s an interesting story point.

Bonus: They redid Erykah Badu’s “Better Call Tyrone” to “They Cloned Tyrone” and played it over the end credits.

    Throwing in a recommendation as well. Loved the sci-fi references they had to a few classic sci-fi films.
