I thought it was slick and fun, though the ending scene of like "now the immigrants run the mansion" was peak liberal cringe, but I was shocked that this got Best Picture attention. Totally forgettable.Anders wrote:This was really mediocre.

I thought it had cliched overacting characters, predictable (knew where it was going after no more than 15 minutes), lacked humor or suspense, but had one good role, and was mildly entertaining.

Wake Up Dead Man is good, not great. It holds to the Knives Out formula that relies more on the performances than it does on the relatively benign storytelling. I’ll be happy to watch more of these.

It's good. It is, of the three, probably the least grounded in reality, which is both its greatest strength but also maybe its downfall. I liked it but it is silly

The scene towards the end when Daniel Craig played that ominous tune on the organ had me laughing.

I kinda feel bad for Riah Johnson. I imagined a different career for him when he made Brick or Looper.

Guy's having the time of his life. Every actor and their mother is lining up to be in his movie. He's making some of the most explicitly anti-trump stuff one can find, and then everyone and their mother is watching it. He's doing great and making millionsVinylGuy wrote:I kinda feel bad for Riah Johnson. I imagined a different career for him when he made Brick or Looper.

Yeah, I think he loves doing these but I don’t want to lose him to a lifelong pursuit of one thing like James Cameron.

Not at all. TLJ and KO are both mediocre, Avatar is a good movie.

I liked the first Knives Out but found the second one to be a bit of a disaster. We'll see

Its just that i thought he was going to make another type of movies. Probably more important ones. After working for SW he seems to be in auto pilot for this series.

Just saw the third one. I liked it the least of the 3, but I still liked it. I wish Rian could turn one of these out every Christmas.
