I think like most here, I went into this film with good expectations. I really enjoyed the first movie and with the cast announced I was looking forward to this. I've come out of it, however, a little dissatisfied.

So I have 2 major plot annoyances, which for me really stops this movie being a great one. So the start was really slow. I wasn't really sold on any of the characters and it just seemed to take an age for the plot to get moving. However, once it does I really enjoyed it. A few really nice twists and the tension built along with the "who did it?" That's burning your brain as you watch, really made me want to watch more and more.

Until the end. It seemed to fall apart a bit. Listen, it's not the worst ending you'll see. But it reminds me of Death on the Nile, in that it's pretty obvious from the get go who the murderer is. Almost too obvious. And that really puts a downer on it as there's no real final twist or that "wow" factor to finalise the plot. How the case was solved was interesting and everything, but it's just too obvious.

Side note: I also thought they didn't do enough with the characters. They had some really intriguing characters here and half of them were pretty forgettable and the ones that were on screen more, there was no real arc's or depth there for us to enjoy.

I'm still going 7/10 today however. I did really enjoy the main base of this movie, the performances from everyone was fantastic. The cinematography was also great. And was I intrigued and interested the entire way? Yes. I guess, I just wanted more from this viewing and it's frustrating knowing that if this was done a touch differently it could have been amazing.

Would I recommend? I wouldn't shout over the hills about it. But, I'd say give it a watch one evening. It's not bad at all.
