There are a lot of genius filmmakers working in Hollywood. What a lot of them struggle to do though is find a way to put together a really smart script, that is also entertaining. Christopher Nolan is a good example of that over the last decade. Rian Johnson does not have that problem. His films are intricately woven, but man are they going to entertain you along the way as well.

This series of films are exactly what I love in cinema. Entertaining and original murder mysteries with an extremely likeable lead character and an amazing cast every time. I wish Johnson would make these until the end of time.

There was only one thing that stopped me from giving this a 10/10. I felt that the cast of "suspects" were all a little too similar in terms of motive and opportunity. They felt like a team, rather than a set of individuals. The film does handle this well in its conclusion but it does make trying to work out the murder mystery along the way a little less fun.

Otherwise though, this film is hard to fault. Funny, smart and highly re-watchable. 9.5/10.
