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.
Oh yeah, that girl being shown the videos. Didn’t even register for some reason.
They Cloned Tyrone was so good, I may force the homies to watch this weekend after we’re bored of video games
