Knives Out- Movie review

Knives Out (2019)

Knives Out is an intricate murder mystery which revolves around the death of a famous mystery novel writer Harlan Thrombey and his family surrounding in the fence of suspicion of murder. The movie is all about the death, conspiracies, revelation and misguidance like a typical thriller movie.

The screenplay is written with very details and you enjoy every scene which keeps you on edge of your seat and adds more to the mystery. The scene composition, set design and costumes is another great aspect of the movie it was all screen when Daniel Craig was sits in the chair with the knives surrounding the background gave the feel of Game of Thrones.

The performance altogether were superb especially of Ana De Armas as Marta Carbrera, an immigrant who is the central character in between this mystery. Also Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc with his southern accent plays a funny as well as witty character, someone who would look up Sherlock Holmes as his idol as we can see him referencing Marta as Watson in many scenes. Comparing it to the other murder mystery movies I can put the movie somewhere above Murder Mystery and below Zodiac.

However I was very much not satisfied by the big reveal where Benoit Blanc understands the involvement the mystery by a simple evidence. Apart from this I must say the movie is a great mystery thriller and will keep you bind in your seats for 120 minutes of its runtime.
