December 27, 20222 yr I watched it last night and found it to be a convoluted mess. Stylistically, it has some merit, but as far as the plot, dialogue, acting etc... it was a solid "meh"
December 27, 20222 yr 12 hours ago, 4th&Five said: It was okay. First one was much better. Pretty much this. Wife and I watched last night. She spent half her time on the phone, which is a pretty good indication for me as she usually likes these types of shows.
December 29, 20222 yr I liked it (?). It zipped by, usually a good sign. If Kate Hudson is going to go full Goldi Hawn, we all deserve a nude scene to tolerate it. She looked great in this film. I’m a fan of Whiskey. I’ll be following her career. I’d watch the hell of a Bautista - Joe Rogan parody. This movie just wasn’t right for Norton. He’s steered his career away from bad ass dramatic roles in 25th Hour and American History X to goofy ass roles in Motherless Brooklyn and Wes Anderson movies. A very strange decision for a serious actor with chops. I guess there’s still time for him to win an Oscar if the right role emerges. Everybody else was pretty forgettable.

January 1, 20232 yr Rian Johnson is getting better. I always felt like his movies are a chore to get through. Knives Out was the best up until now and with Glass Onion he goes fully over the top with his characters, which made it fun to watch. It's like 40% social commentary, but a breezy good time and great visuals.
January 2, 20232 yr 5 hours ago, WBT said: It was OK, but not nearly as good as the first one. The ending was dumb. Kind of how I felt. I enjoyed it but doubt if I'd watch it again. Ever.
January 2, 20232 yr We did a double feature with the kids tonight. I enjoyed the 2nd one. Not as much as the first as the first was funnier. I appreciated Kate Hudson is a bikini. The new chick was nice too. I love how over the top Daniel Craig's KFC accent has become. There's a funny YouTube video with the other actors trying to recreate his accent. Elon Norton was ahead of its time.

It would have been better to knock 20-30 minutes off the runtime as well. Spoiler Did anyone not realize that Mona Lisa was getting destroyed the second they showed it? Surprises in a movie like this are welcomed and that was the opposite of a surprise.

January 2, 20232 yr I'm definitely in the minority here but I can't stand Kate Hudson. She was tolerable in this role because her character was loathsome.
January 2, 20232 yr Along with Almost Famous, I’m fairly certain this was only the second movie that I’ve seen starring Kate Hudson. I knew who she was but I’ve never run across her in anything else.
January 2, 20232 yr I would like to have sexual relations with Kate Hudson. Multiple times. Even in the court room as my wife files for divorce.
January 3, 20232 yr The wife and I watched and enjoyed it last night. I wasn't expecting to like it and probably would've bailed about 20 minutes in, but she was enjoying it and the pace picked up just in time.
January 3, 20232 yr I liked it, maybe not as good as Knives out, but really a lot of fun. Worth a rewatch to catch all the hints and clues that were there. Even the occasional easter egg like the Tyler Durden painting with Ed Norton's head put on it.
January 3, 20232 yr Nice touch I didnt notice before. Miles Bron stylized after Frank TJ Mackey - Tom Cruise from Magnolia.
January 17, 20232 yr I don’t like it when a mystery hides a bunch of shit from you so that there’s no way you can possibly figure it out. This movie did that a couple of times. That said it was a fun popcorn flick just due to the cast. I liked the first one better, but the first one also had Ana de Armas in it.

Surprises in a movie like this are welcomed and that was the opposite of a surprise. Spoiler It was definitely Chekhov's Mona Lisa. Also, Blanc has a boyfriend and it's Hugh Grant, right?
January 18, 20232 yr How did Miles Bron kill Andi? I missed that somehow. Or maybe they weren’t explicit.

September 3, 20241 yr Why in God's name would this film cost $210M to make? That's almost as much as a Marvel movie.
September 3, 20241 yr 13 hours ago, mdmost said: Why in God's name would this film cost $210M to make? That's almost as much as a Marvel movie. I can only assume they have the typical 7-10 murder mystery whodunnit suspects, and all 7-10 are A-list, $20mm a film types.
September 3, 20241 yr There's a killer on the loose, and Benoit Blanc has him in his sights: Is it dashing Tom Cruise? Matthew McCannaughey? The reanimated corpse of Marlon Brando? Pope Francis? Warren Buffett? That giant stack of gold krugerrands? Find out in the next installment of $$$GLASS ONION

September 3, 20241 yr I really don't get this play from Netflix. Are they going to add that many subscribers for this movie? Especially after the last one was pretty disappointing?
