I liked Knives out and was excited for this one, but while I enjoyed it, something felt off throughout the whole movie. The theme is "genius" vs stupid and I have a feeling that the writer/director thinks he was really smart for writing a murder mystery committed by an "idiot". Never been done before, amazing.

I really don't like it when people make this distinction. I think it would've been more accurate to name the actual root of evil in the rich guy: cruelty. Yes, he is ignorant, but he has absolutely no regard to other people's feelings and needs, only his own. He steals, hurts, lies and destroys without thinking of the consequences. Only to hoard money. That's his crime, not stupidity.

What even is "stupid"? We're all stupid at something and smart at something else. There's plenty of "stupid" people out there who are kind and hurt no one. It's the ignorant people who think they are above others and act with complete disregard to others who are the problem. People who think they are above everything and everyone. That's what we should judge. Stupid can be excused, it usually doesn't hurt others. Cruelty does.

Criticising stupidity while spreading a stupid point is just too ironic.
