Review of Knives Out

Knives Out (2019)
8/10
Well acted, over-hyped and anti-climatic
26 December 2019
Film looks good. Great cast. Intriguing at the start. Humorous. Interesting feel. But then I got confused. Was it a comedy, a thriller? A whodunnit? Then the story got a bit slap stick. Then I got excited. I was waiting for the sucker punch. The intelligent twist. But it never came. The last act was like they run out of money and had to wrap up the filming fast. The story ending was dumbed down. The reasons laughable. The ending weak.

This film had promise but failed to deliver. All the fake high review scores will high this though. It is a watchable Sunday afternoon film. That's all. An anti-climax.
