This was slightly disappointing as a whodunit, but still passable fun. The one thing I like about this movie is the fact, it shows that you can have friends with nothing in common but each other. That odd-ball group in turn makes for great acting as people play off each other in this very interesting film. The script juggles lots of characters well and while it has lulls of slow pacing and exposition in the middle it makes up for it by being fun.

Nicely filmed and directed, I'm hoping for more Knives out and it's great detective. But the storyline should involve some less breaking art and making us think along.
