After the terrific Knives Out, I looked forward to Glass Onion but didn't rush to it because of the run time. As I suspected, the film was 45 minutes too long and at the end, it all just felt kinda meh. I hated that it was set during lockdowns because it added zero to the plot except for making the film longer than it had to be. I kept asking myself why? It was incredibly unnecessary and served zero purpose.

Nothing happens for over an hour then someone dies and we get an overlong explanation of the plot before the mystery is solved. There's no intrigue, no guessing. Nothing happens, something happens then it's immediately explained.

The whole thing feels like a messy, overlong, boring predictable mess. Friends told me not to bother. I should have listened. Hopefully the third film will be better.
