My husband and I watched this film in 2023 as a double feature with it's sequel Murder Mystery 2, consequently this review will contain comparisons. Personally, I preferred the overall mystery of this the first movie along with its backdrop over #2, but I did think #2 was a funnier film (or I found myself laughing more at the one-liners).

This is a big budget comedy that has Jennifer Anniston and Adam Sandler playing a married New York couple that finally go for their European honeymoon...fifteen years after the fact. On the plane. Mrs. Spitz is a hair dresser and Mr. Spitz a New York City Cop who has been lying about being a detective as he has failed the exam more than once. On board the plane Mrs. Spitz meets a wealthy titled gentleman who invites the two of them aboard his uncle's yacht for a unique experience to see Europe. Unfortunately, the uncle is murdered on the first night. Enter Inspector De La Croix, who decides The Spitz's are the murderers...and the two set out to solve the crime.

Wonderful backdrop, destruction, a great wardrobe, and comedy in this mystery farce. While this is no Knives Out, it was still enjoyable. I like both Anniston and Sandler, but i didn't really buy them as a married couple...friends, yes but married, no.

Full of silly fun, this was an entertaining film and I recommend it as a lighthearted comedy.
