This "sequel" lacks all of the charm, momentum, mystery and fun that the original Knives Out had.

It looks like the director tried to escalate things into a larger magnitude, but forgot about the essence of the first movie and everything that made it a good story in the first place. If it wasn't for Daniel Craig's character, nobody would guess this story is even in the same universe as the first one.

Goofy acting, poor directing, dumb plot, even dumber payoff. You could see the "bad guy" from a mile away.

I really, REALLY, wanted to like this movie. Maybe if it was an original story with different characters, I would have enjoyed more.

Is it above average as a Netflix release? Yes. But this only means that is not pure garbage, as they mostly are. I saw that there is a third one in the making, I just wish they can remember what was it that made the first movie a good one.
