Movies Like "Get Out": "Sorry to Bother You"

"Sorry to Bother You," which also stars LaKeith Stanfield of "Get Out," is an absurdist dark comedy from director Boots Riley. Like "Get Out," "Sorry to Bother You" is a satirical social commentary on race in corporate America and capitalism. When Cassius Green uses his "white voice" to succeed at his telemarketing job — an extreme form of code-switching that many people who identify as BIPOC have experienced — he finds himself swept up in his newfound financial success and a wild conspiracy. His new promotion causes him to bump heads with girlfriend Detroit (played by none other than Tessa Thompson), his friends, and his former coworkers.
