Good submitted by manz on August 27, 2020, 12:08pm I didn't like this as much as I thought I would. Kinda boring.

Disappointed submitted by Nancianna Girbach on September 4, 2020, 3:28pm Total waste of a great cast. Did not even make sense! The trailer is funnier than the movie.

A murder mystery or is it submitted by mandevil on November 1, 2020, 12:11pm Takes all it’s clues from Agatha Christie. An enjoyable farce

Love it submitted by Stinglikeawalrus on July 1, 2021, 12:40am I loved it. It's got all the things you always need in a good mystery.

A satisfying mystery that's quite entertaining submitted by yufamily on July 13, 2021, 8:38pm Ana De Armas stole the scenes on multiple occasions. A great team of actors.

Droll and deadly submitted by FordAlpha on August 29, 2021, 3:38pm This was a really entertaining film with a top-notch cast, especially Ana de Armas. I'm still not sure what was going on with Daniel Craig's accent, but I enjoyed the deadpan humor which got funnier and funnier as the plot progressed. There were a few genuine surprises in the twisty plot.

fun submitted by nemiller on June 18, 2023, 9:17am A funny and complex mystery. There are enough clues and misdirections that it's worth rewatching, just to see what you pick up on the second time through. The greatest mystery of all: what on earth is going on with Daniel Craig's accent?

Fun submitted by jolietimm on June 20, 2023, 4:43pm A good mystery and a super fun watch. It has a great cast as well.

Excellent submitted by Xris on July 9, 2023, 10:23pm Excellent mystery movie with an amazing cast! I was proud of myself for figuring out the clue about the medicine. Loved the subtle changes in things, like the painting. Can't wait for more!
