Without making this too drawn out, this film has too many flaws and is an overly marketed poor excuse of a murder mystery.

Too much flash, too much visual panache for such a paper thin script. Everything is about visually distracting the audience with boats, islands, accents, architecture, art, name dropping celebrities - nothing but flashy distractions from an otherwise boring and unimaginative plot.

Benoit Blanc, as much as I love DC, has an abominable fake southern accent and sounds like a caricature of a human being. Kate Hudson's character is annoying and her entire character a trope on idiotic rich people. Paired with the irony that her IQ in the movie is roughly the same as the type of demographic that will find this empty drivel entertaining.

Beyond that, there are absurd plot holes and idiotic plot devices that make this movie, with all its visual pizazz, boring. Interesting on the surface, but devoid of depth. All made to pander to todays audiences who are social media obsessed and are rarely looking for clever or interesting dialogue.

There are no clever plot devices. There are no interesting twists. There is no great mystery. This is all just a waste of your time. Avoid!
