À propos de ce film

The circumstances surrounding the death of crime novelist Harlan Thrombey are mysterious, but there's one thing that renowned Detective Benoit Blanc knows for sure-everyone in the wildly dysfunctional Thrombey family is a suspect. Now, Blanc must sift through a web of lies and red herrings to uncover the truth. From acclaimed writer-director Rian Johnson comes this suspenseful, twist-filled whodunnit with an all-star ensemble cast including Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis, Michael Shannon, Don Johnson, Toni Collette, La Keith Stanfield, Katherine Langford, Jaeden Martell, Christopher Plummer, and more.

Notes et avis

Rian Johnson directed it, so knowing the villain was way too easy. That being said, it was alot of fun, and possibly Rian's best work. Not that this really means anything these days. He is an uninspired director that steals many of his ideas from much better movies. It was still fun to watch, so there is that. Much better than The Last Jedi

This movie was compared with Clue a lot and first things first, this is NOTHING like Clue. Clue was a comedy first and mystery second. Knives Out is also not exactly a classic murder mystery (at least not in my book), as those usually take place over one night. This takes place over a few days and leaves the mansion often. It's still an entertaining flick, but it's pretty obvious who the guilty party is; so much so I really thought Rian was going to "subvert my expectations" again. He did not.

If you like murder mystery genre movies this is a fantastic one. Very good cast and a solid acting job by all, keeps you entertained the entire way. Don't let some of the negative reviews sway you this movie has a 97% rotten tomato rating for a reason.
