A Knives Out Mystery That's Actually Worth Your Time
summarizeEditor's Summary
I was skeptical about this movie at first, but it turned out to be a solid addition to the franchise. The plot was engaging, with plenty of twists and turns to keep me guessing. The cinematography was top-notch, and the actors' performances were spot on. While some secondary characters felt a bit underdeveloped, the main cast more than made up for it. I'd highly recommend this movie to fans of the series - it's a great watch.
