    The 2 Knives out movies are really amazing. It’s clear that he understands and adores the murder mystery genre, and plays around with it in these two movies.

    There’s so many subtle things to pay attention to, hints that seem weird or jarring but make absolutely perfect sense in retrospect. The classic big reveal where the detective explains what’s really been going on the whole movie is amazing in both. By the time that reveal happens, if you’ve really been paying attention, you can have the answers to who, how and why already solved and feel proud of yourself (or be like me and only have who and why, but not the how).

    Sorry for gushing, but both the Knives Out movies are absolutely must-watch movies if you have even a passing interest in murder mystery fiction.
