The first Knives Out was an entertaining movie with interesting character, a great setting and a certain charm that I hadn't experienced in a while. I sincerely hoped this would be the case for the successor.

But it wasn't.

Where the first movie had characters that got to shine, the focus here is shifted to half of them, while the other half is needed to push the plot. And the plot itself is...bad. You want to be able to decipher the idea or at least get a grasp. But you can't really. And everything is silly to boot. Sure the movie doesn't seem to take itself serious, but you definitely need to take the audience serious, which it also doesn't.

And them when you finally get there it overstays its welcome by about 20 minutes.

So no masterpiece here, just another forgettable Netflix movie.
