Knives Out

Rian Johnson, better known for Star Wars: The Last Jedi, directed this who-dun-it mystery murder. This movie stars Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Don Johnson. As you might expect from a cast as bright as this, the movie is really good. It’s the story of a patriarch who gets murdered on his 85th birthday. Daniel Craig, a private investigator, is hired by some unknown person to investigate the murder. The murderer makes it look like a suicide so the police are just trying to end the investigation. Everyone has a motive to kill the old man, but none of them did it. So who did it?

I’m really bummed that I didn’t get to see this in the movie theater. I think that Rian Johnson did a great job of putting this film together. I recommend seeing it as soon as you can. It truly will go down as one of the great murder mysteries of the decade.
