I was really enjoying this film - the twists, turns, surrealism, and the tension - but then the third act happened.
Peele was obviously racking his brains for an ultimate twist that would shock and awe more than everything that had previously taken place. Unfortunately, he seems to have gotten lost and entered the realm of the utterly ridiculous.
The climax of the film wrestled it back a bit, but I just couldn't shake my disbelief of the premise behind the antagonists' motive and it ruined the film for me - it was so out of place, it could almost be considered science fiction.
