![]() Wincott has always been an intriguing character actor and is one of the standouts in the supporting cast as he fully fleshes out the motivations of Holst and makes the character an intriguing one. Wincott’s Holst is one of several characters looking to make a major score by obtaining shots of the UFO which sucks up its unfortunate victims. Anyone who doesn’t know that Nope is about an unfriendly UFO has probably been hiding underneath a rock for a couple of months. Michael Wincott is also amazing as the cinematographer, Antlers Holst, who is, for a lot of his screen time, shooting footage of the events portrayed in the picture. If Kim wasn’t as good as he was, Yuen’s performance would fall flat. In fact, Kim defines the character that Yuen presents on screen. When we get the flashback sequence of the young Ricky almost being attacked by Gordy, there is genuine suspense and Kim expertly portrays the younger Ricky. He shows a shoe standing upright in the background which came off a victim’s foot and builds the circumstances behind this event to perfection. Peele’s presentation of these scenes is amazing. Yuen plays Ricky ‘Jupe’ Park, and as a child (Jacob Kim), Ricky was traumatized by an event in which Gordy went wild and harmed some fellow people from the show. This is where Yuen’s character comes into the movie. An ape named Gordy (Terry Notary) went on a rampage during the shoot of a television show. There is a scenario in the film that is interwoven throughout the picture’s complex plot. When Emerald enters the movie, it’s like a force of nature has come on screen and through the picture, Palmer is always the most competent performer stealing the rug right out from heavy hitters like Kaluuya and Steven Yuen who has a central role in the picture as well. ![]() She’s one of the best actresses in the movies of 2022 thus far. Early on, Emerald comes to a set and once she starts talking, Palmer’s obvious passion for acting is on full display. Since their dad Otis (Keith David) dies a premature death, the siblings are stuck with some financial troubles. ![]() It’s one of the most unique pictures that I’ve seen this year.ĭaniel Kaluuya is OJ Haywood who is a horse provider for the entertainment industry with a sister named Emerald (Palmer). A lot of interesting choices were made in terms of camera angles and the uses of certain shots create nail-biting suspense throughout. Set in California, this is a movie for the record books in terms of the way the movie is crafted from a cinematic standpoint. She shares the screen with Daniel Kaluuya, an Oscar winner, and it’s hard to believe that Palmer doesn’t have an Academy Award herself judging from the terrific energy and thoughtful emotion which she puts into every second of her performance in Nope. This movie has scenes on the level of early Steven Spielberg pictures, but nothing can prepare audiences for the knockout lead performance by Keke Palmer. Jordan Peele has crafted a suspenseful, thought-provoking, action-packed science fiction thriller with his latest picture, Nope. Nope (2022) Film Review, a movie written and directed by Jordan Peele and starring Daniel Kaluuya, Keke Palmer, Brandon Perea, Michael Wincott, Steven Yeun, Wrenn Schmidt, Keith David, Devon Graye, Terry Notary, Barbie Ferreira, Donna Mills, Oz Perkins, Eddie Jemison, Jacob Kim, Sophia Coto, Jennifer Lafleur, Andrew Patrick Ralston and Lincoln Lambert. ![]()
