Finally saw Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery last night. It was… an interesting movie. I’m not sure if it was good, but it was certainly interesting.
The thing you need to know before seeing Glass Onion is that it’s not really a murder mystery. It seems like one at first, but it’s not. It’s really more of a middle finger to tech billionaires (especially Elon Musk), disguised as a murder mystery. If you go in expecting biting social commentary with all-too recognizable personalities and an incredibly cathartic ending, you’ll be pretty pleased. But if you go in expecting an intelligent, intricately-plotted thriller like the first movie, you’ll walk away disappointed.
Overall, it’s a pretty good movie in its own right, but the original movie is way better. I’ve watched the original several times by now, but I doubt I’ll ever rewatch Glass Onion more than once.
