"I'm terrible at dumb things" - Benoit Blanc

The sequel to Knives Out doesn't live up to its predecessor, but it's still a very entertaining watch. Unlike the first one its much slower and it takes its time to get going. The first half feels very uneventful and it's a certain point in the middle where it shows you what's actually going on, when this movie takes off. Afterwards there's a lot of information thrown at you quickly and that's when this movie really starts to entertain.

The mystery isn't as great as in the 1st movie, but it's still good enough. But this movie is still pretty funny. In fact the last 30 minutes or so were hilarious. Daniel Craig is just brilliant once again. After this movie, I like Benoit Blanc's character even more. I love how even though how smart he is, he never holds back on his emotions and really gets involved in these cases. Edward Norton was brilliant too. But as long as characters and acting goes, that's about it because you don't really feel the presence of other characters. That's a step down from the previous movie because that movie was a great ensemble of cast and almost every actor owned the screen in the little screentime they got. Rian Johnson is a great director and once again he did a great job here. The movie also has a little theme connecting Benoit Blanc and this particular mystery and that I thought was hilarious and pretty clever too.

The final 10 minutes though go a little out of hand because they went a bit too much for drama instead of logic there. And the "Who did it part" was again pretty standard. But it was more about the entertaining way the movie uses to reveal it.

Overall, I don't think its near as good as the 1st but it's still entertaining and feels a bit different from its predecessor.
