Great soundtrack!!

Knives Out and Glass Onion - both quite amusing. Thought the first one was marginally better.

Great book too.

It was a lot better!

They were surprisingly different films, I thought. It would have been easy to make the second very similar, basically creating a new Poirot or whatever, but they made some very leftfield choices.

I do agree that the first was better, but the second was better than expected.

I thought they were both shite :+1:

Looks interesting, summat for tomorrow :+1:

I remember first hearing her on some Chris Barber LP & assumed they’d just hired a very good black singer to do the vocals. Was quite surprised when I found out more about her.

Got 45 mins into Knives Out and turned it off.
Turgid and ridiculous like the worst AmDram of a Christie play.

Or maybe that was what it was supposed to be.

Not sure many Flixers have read or watched Christie? I thought it resolved fairly well at the end. Daniel Craig with a Southern drawl took a lot of effort though.

I thought it was ok, apart from Daniel Craig’s hamming it up accent. Think of it as a homage to Agatha.

I’ll take your word for that as I won’t be seeing it!

Compared to snakes on a plane, it was positively highbrow… A low bar I know.

Thanks for giving me another one to avoid :laughing:
