Film Review: Jordan Peele risks becoming the next M. Night Shyamalan with Nope

'Daniel Kaluuya is strong in the lead role, and beautifully delivers the best comic lines, but otherwise Nope is nowhere near as gripping and disruptive a cinematic experience as Peele’s debut'

Nope: promises far more than it delivers

★★★☆☆

Jordan Peele, the writer-director of the brilliant Get Out (2017) and the solid-but-unspectacular Us (2019), bravely offers a hostage to fortune with the title of his latest movie, Nope (16s).
