A Fashionable And Eccentric Comedy-Crime Masterpiece By Rian Johnson

Rating: 9/10 (16 March 2020)

Wow. My favourite movie of 2019. When I saw the movie I could hardly think anything negative about it and when I saw the 8/10 score I was sure there would not be many negative reviews but there was still many of them. I mean yeah you could easily hate this movie because all movies are made of opinions I am sure there are some people who gave Emoji Movie (2017) a 10/10 and Pulp Fiction (1994) an 1/10. Sadly I was reminded that community had many weirdos who just say "boring boring boring bad movie 2/10." I do not have a problem with anyone disliking a movie but at least explain why. Well now I am going to keep my promise and explain why I love this movie in a long review.
So let us start with the very big and obvious positives about the movie. Acting. Out of all negative reviews with some depth this was something that did not get any negative review. I mean Ana De Armas, Daniel Craig, Chris Evans and the whole cast did an amazing job. Breakout star of the movie changes for many people but I still have to go with Ana De Armas. She does drama and humour very very well and her acting never feels off. Daniel Craig also blew my mind with that accent and Chris Evans did a good job playing the spoiled cocky cock.
What about...screenplay? This is a twisted one. Even though it was the only Oscar Nomination for this movie and I simply think it is the best of the year I am hearing some negatives about it. Saying it is too predictable, too un-predictable, un-original or just too boring. I think it is perfectly balanced. Many characters feel fun so it doesn't get boring, I do not see how it would be un-original and I think it is more predictable rather than un-predictable but eh... pI think it is not THAT predictable.
Cinematography? I will keep this short. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. If you watched the movie the best scene for cinematography was the last 20 minutes for sure.
Soundtrack? That is something that I have mixed feelings for actually. Other than "Sweet Virginia" nothing really sticks out and is just kinda bland. I don't know it is not necessarily a problem but definitely not a positive about the movie.
Well how do I have problems with this movie? I think sound editing is kinda bad sometimes in the movie a voice chaos happens. I know that is the point of the scene but it is just not that pleasant. Like I said I also thing the soundtrack is just "meh." I do not have many problems with movie but I heard some plot holes but I think they are not that big so I don't mind.
Anyway, that is my review for "Knives Out" and I really think it is the best movie of 2019. (8.7/10)
