Just watched Knives Out last night. A while back I'd tried to watch it and it bored the shyt out of me. I gave it another shot last night and the first 30 minutes or so still didn't do it for me. But I persevered and I'm glad I did. The last act of the movie is really good and I enjoyed it. Gonna check out Glass Onion next.
Glass Onion was solid, but I felt the first movie was much better. I wouldn't mind this becoming a franchise though.

Saw this, it was fun for the most part. A little too long like most films these days. But what are you gonna do?

Question in the spoiler

So Janelle Monae's character is dead, then her twin shows up and Norton doesn't IMMEDIATELY CANCEL?! Did he think that maybe she got out of the car while drugged and unconscious and just walked to the mail box for some fresh air? Like what the fukk?

If he killed her, WHY DID HE MAKE HER A BOX? No one would ask why she didn't get a box after the trial. He's on her shyt list.

And funny thing on me. I thought that Whiskey was played by Florence Pugh for a bit. I was like, "what did she do to her lips?"

And other than to be the black science guy, what was Odom there for? There was nothing to his character on the mystery side.

Tumblr detectives did it again. This makes me want to watch the movie for a 3rd time.

Surprised they didn’t mention the greatest irony of all in the film
so Kate Hudson’s character basically makes lululemon in the film and has that sweatshop controversy hovering over her.

‘what’s funny is Kate Hudson owns the athleisure company fabletics in real life and fabletics was under fire for their manufacturing company having sexual harassment and physical abuse claims :lolbron:

He didn't stay to see if she was dead, so it was possible. He drugged her, left, but she was also able to get in the car. She was found dead in the car. Him seeing her there means him thinking he failed, and she was there to kill him. Or it was a rouse, and they were there to expose him. He tapped her shoulder upon arrival to see if she was real.

He did not make the boxes. The list of boxes to send out were already in motion before he decided to kill her. She had only been dead for perhaps like 2 weeks. The boxes were received maybe a couple of days after she was killed, so they were on route when she was alive.

As for Leslie Odom, he was the science brain/specialist/company that worked for Alpha. He name and reputation is behind the science, so essentially this all falls on him when it fails. He said he needed at least 2 years of research data. Miles has him positioned to be thrown under the bus.

It was ok, enjoyable. Not as good as the first but I'd watch more.

That "Alabama" accent ol girl had was terrible. Thought Batista and Craig were the best in the movie.
