Well, this was no Poirot (despite Daniel Craig's best efforts to accomplish a peculiar accent), but it was a nice spin on the old Clue board game formula.
Despite being an old fan of mystery movies and TV series (the aforementioned Poirot, Sherlock Holmes, Maigret, and so on), I watched this mostly because of the hype surrounding it. Much to my dismay, I found nothing here to support it. Don't show us right in the first third of the movie how the crime was committed if you don't plan on dazzling us with an outstanding twist by the end of it. Still better than Kenneth Branagh's 2017 Murder on the Orient Express ordeal, though.
All in all, Knives Out delivers an entertaining — albeit plain and predictable — couple of hours.
