If the real Adelaide(red) never went to the beach I think all of this wouldn’t be happening right? LMAO!!

[@mgunslinger17]

For the people who think the tethered are inherently evil and violent, you missed the point. The fact that the Adelaide we see through most of the movie has become a successful, loving, caring “normal” person proves the only thing keeping the tethered as they are is the system that makes them into a literal underclass. And when the original “normal” Adelaide is forced into that underclass, she also succumbs to its inhumane forces. But the cherry on top is that you can only keep an underclass down for so long before they rebel against the system that keeps them down.

[@aamiller90]

I love this ending as it really gets you thinking, who’s the villain, I guess it’s Red, but she was just seeking revenge for what was rightfully hers. Maybe it’s Adelaide, but she wanted more for herself than a life of suffering, being forgotten. I like movies that get you thinking, when it’s not clearly black or white.

[@SixPathsOfEntanglement]

It's more clearly cut to me who the true evil is and its Adelaide. Remember when Red said she never forgot her and said she could've went about it differently as in they could've started their revolution together and both have good lives but clone Adelaide just had her own selfish interests in mind, stealing her double's life. Where my feelings are mixed is that they have family who are the same but very different at the same time and Red no longer has the sanity she did before.

[@brayton3906]

I had the same thought at first, but if you consider how Red and Adelaide’s actions mirror each other, and Red ended up being controlled by Adelaide’s actions when they switched, which is demonstrated in the dancing scene, Adelaide really had no choice if she wanted to save herself. One of the two had to be stuck with the rest of the tethers in the tunnels and I guess although it was selfish of Adelaide to never go back and try to help Red, her actions were justifiable considering most people would do the same to get out of that Hellhole, and because she had to do what she did to Red to be able to escape. So I guess there really is no clear cut villain in this movie as they both were victims of unfortunate circumstance.

[@brucesnow7125]

@@SixPathsOfEntanglement Adelaide was a kid who was raised as an animal. You really expected her to somehow be a nice thoughtful human being when she was raised like that? That's why she did that to Red, not because she's inherently evil. You did not get the point of the movie - nobody here is evil, the system is the true villain in this movie. The system that made Adelaide prone to violence and that turned Red into a monster. Both of them are nothing but products of said system. They are literally exact copies of the original, just raised differently under different environment.

[@eggynack]

@@0rangeeige199 Should she though? The more I think through the meaning of the reveal, the more I'm inclined to think the point is that it's meaningless. It just doesn't change that much about what came before. As a child she did whatever she could to beat her way out of hell, and as an adult she did whatever she could to preserve the life she'd built. And, I dunno, maybe one could read the smile as sinister, but it could also just be that she succeeded. Escaped. Without the twist, would we judge the smile? See it as anything but one of victory? I'd say no, even though all her actions were to beat these people back, apathetic to their conditions prior. In either state we'd have no expectation that she would pursue tethered liberation. I think the film invites us to understand her as villainous in some regard, and then perhaps to discard that reading, recognizing the inhumanity you're brought to when the world treats you as inhuman.

Her being a vegan, being a dancer, her favorite memory was of being given a solo number for a dance that was supposed to be performed by two people, her going to therapy and playing with a bunny toy, being mute all of a sudden as a child. All her later years, she was suppressing her time as a tethered.

[@Rosskles]

And that 'just talking' was always difficult for her!

[@hardcoreking52]

I loved all the hints that they dropped about the mom being a tethered. (Spoilers!) 1. Her fear of the family, before they even do anything. 2. "Red" being able to speak, while the rest only grunted or made noises. 3. Her bizarre mannerisms with the tethered children. 4. How prone she was to using violence. 5. "Red" describing how the tethered can control the above, and the mom's ballet made Red dance underground. Also the mom's son controlling the tethered son. 6. The mom grunting when fighting "Red" and after she killed her. It was all great and did the job it should.

[@hardcoreking52]

@@GeedUPfromtheFEADup If you mean the mom in red? It's because she was originally from above so she already had a general understanding of English, and since the thethered mom switched places with her, she grew up around people who spoke so she eventually learned to speak instead of grunt.

[@0megaFan]

I can’t figure out how I feel about this. On the one hand, yeah, Adelaide did something terrible, awful to Red and frankly deserves something coming to her. But on the other hand that is HER family. I kept thinking she stole Red’s family from her but, no! Adelaide fell in love with Gabe and had two kids! But then Red of course was a little girl who got kidnapped and was forced to live her life underground with some weird creatures that look exactly like people you know and do similar things but are extremely creepy about it all. Not to mention eating raw rabbit. Hell yeah she’d want revenge on Adelaide... But she also lead a mass murder spree against a people who previously had absolutely no idea they existed. The only one who deserved anything in the movie was Adelaide. I guess in end neither of them are in the right.

[@JMaefranzen]

If u think of it, Adelaide just wanted a normal life, I think if we had a chance to replace the life she had with our double gangers life, most of us wouldn't pass on it.

[@willjackson6522]

Peele movies are always very clearly portraying some sort of metaphor. I believe my takeaway from Us is that neither side of this oppressive system is evil despite the system itself being evil. The clones underground are not evil for desiring to be free and to live their own lives, and their anger for those on the surface makes sense when considering the endless distress they had to endure underground which undoubtedly broke their sanity. The privileged people on the surface are not evil either as they are just living their lives. Specifically, they had no hand in creating the system which oppressed those underground. This last part I believe to be the primary metaphor for Us. The system in the movie is a metaphor for that of the real world, where there is significant class disparities, with those in the lower class often fruitlessly trying to copy the actions of the more privileged because that’s all they have the power to do. Alongside this, many of the privileged can’t be blamed for the system, despite benefitting massively from it at the expense of the lower class, as they did not create it. The moral that can be derived from this is that a system can be evil without either side, the oppressed or the oppressors, being evil themselves. It’s the system that must be dismantled, not the people in either group.

I wish they kept in the little extra part of this reveal that wasn't in the final film, where Weyland and Eartha (The Tethered versions of Adelaide's parents; Russel and Rayne) find Adelaide chained to the bed, mistaking her for Red, hey that rhymes. Because it was so fucking creepy, but it also told us a lot about the tethered, it knd of showed us that even when they attempt to care for someone; they do it in a very negative and disturbing way, I mean instead of being loving, they both come off as obsessive and possessive. It made Adelaide's despair even sadder and more terrifying too because for a brief moment she thought that her parents had found her, only for them to start acting all weird and creepy, between Rayne's demented staring, the way she swings her head around and Weyland's mood swings, their attempts to nonverbally communicate with her, it just seemed like such a bad birthday for her. In addition; that scene also showed Adelaide's laryngeal spasmodic dysphonia (her slow breathy speech impediment) in it's developmental stages, how it was impacting her ability to vocalize, seemingly brought on by Red's strangulation of her. Anyway, glad they kept it as a deleted scene. It would've fit in with this reveal scene so nicely though.

After seeing all this, we can discover that this Addy is the real doppelganger, and Red (the other "doppelganger") was the real Addy. Jason discovered that fact but not because of how they were looking at theirselves right now, it was because Jason and all of they knew and know that doppelgangers can't talk, and Red was the only one that was talking, and also, when the little "Addy" arrived from the fair, as you can see, she wasnt talking and anything like that, because she was the doppelganger, i hope you can help me giving like!!
