Johnson, on temporary sabbatical from the Star Wars universe after The Last Jedi, has used his time well. Murder he wrote - and what a writer he is. Oct 9, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

There is some savvy subtext in Rian Johnson's writing, about old money and Trump-era values, but mainly this is exceptional cinematic froth, and murder at its most mirthful. Oct 9, 2019 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Best to remember that those old movies Johnson embraces were really not that great, and to bring lowered expectations to his entertaining but scattershot update. Sep 11, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

A silly, stabby, supremely clever whodunnit that only really suffers from having too little room for each of its talented players to fully register in the film's limited run time. Sep 10, 2019 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…

Johnson hasn't just churned out a wink-wink spoof of the classical drawing-room mystery... with its ingenious twists and turns, he has crafted an intricate puzzle-box narrative worthy of the genre's brainiest practitioners. Sep 9, 2019 | Full Review…

[A] dizzy, politically astute murder-mystery comedy that, while not reinventing the genre, certainly hits all the expected beats with flair. Sep 9, 2019 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

[T]he film plays around with the tropes of the genre while skilfully creating a riveting mystery of its own, one that functions in part as a sly, satirical take-down of Make America Great Again-style thinking. Oct 13, 2019 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Touching at times, this neatly wrapped tale about immigrants, upper class entitlement and Trumpian politics flawlessly refreshes the murder-mystery genre. Oct 13, 2019 | Full Review…

More so than The Last Jedi, Knives Out firmly establishes Johnson as one of the most reliable filmmakers working in the mainstream today, subverting the expectations of popcorn entertainment without detracting from the simple pleasures. Oct 10, 2019 | Rating: 9/10 | Full Review…

Knives Out delighted me to no end and kept me thinking the entire time. With each new twist, I thought I knew who did it and what was going on but then I was shown I couldn't trust a single person and that's the sign of a brilliant mystery. Oct 10, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
