Welcome back detective films

Rating: 9/10 (8 March 2020)

Knives Out plays out like a modern day whodunit, and who better than Rian Johnson at the helm. Brick was like an update of the tough Bogart era films, but here Johnson carves his own Agatha Christie storyline. The film is a twisted storyline with a strong cast. I was worried the film played its cards too early, but it still had enough to keep things fresh. Fingers crossed Johnson brings a sequel, or spin-off.
