Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery
Some of the same elements from Knives Out, but the characters are even more caricatures, it’s all a bit more absurd, and it feels like the film itself is working against you in the first half. None of those are improvements, at least as far as my tastes go.
Knives Out had a lovely slow drip of information as everything comes together, Glass Onion has an inflection point half way through where a load of previously concealed information is dropped on you. This is also the first point where you get a character that you can actually root for; in the first half they all come across as horrible and unlikeable.
