I was a huge fan of Knives Out in 2019. I wasn't familiar with Rian Johnson, but it had me promising to catch his next few flicks no questions asked. I would argue that Glass Onion is as good if not better for the majority of the run time when compared to Knives Out.

Both had world-class dialogue, intriguing direction, and style. Glass onion had the benefit of, without getting into spoilers, complicating the plot to make for more interesting reveals. Really, the only part that Glass Onion really lacks is in the final 10 minutes where it gets cartoon-esque and crossed the line into too silly of happenings.

I was engrossed in the dialogue and plot devices the entire film and didn't feel bored for a second. That is what cinema is about.
