While the movie is entertaining, it places political themes over plot quality. While this isn't a negative in film per se, the plot is integrally important to whodunnits, which this purports to be. As a fan of mysteries and thrillers with twists, I found the resolution obvious before the halfway point, leaving me pretty disappointed.

This is another entry in a string of recent political movies posing as a film of any given genre. Jordan Peele's "Get Out" and "Us" did it beautifully, Boots Riley's "Sorry to Bother You" did it shockingly badly, and Rian Johnson's "Knives Out" falls somewhere in the middle. Lower your expectations if you're expecting a rollercoaster of a plotline and prepare to be preached to about hierarchies instead, for better or for worse.
