Watched this tonight at the cinema.
If you like old fashioned, Agatha Christie style stuff then you would probably like this film. Not really much action, sort of a slow burner whodunnit with an all star cast including Daniel Craig, Jamie Lee Curtis and Christopher Plummer.
Craig affected a ridiculous accent throughout, but I got the feeling he was hamming it up on purpose and the whole movie was supposed to be a sort of satirical spoof on the murder mystery genre. Don’t go expecting to see the best film of the year. Nevertheless, I quite enjoyed it and will award it 7/10.
Cheers.

7/10 from me. Good acting and cinematography with an excellent, understated, comedy undertone.
(Apologies for not being able to sound quite as pretentious as Mayo and Kermode and their listeners on Five Live.) |

Agree with both posts above. It’s a 7 out of 10 for me, too.
Perfect Christmas afternoon movie in my view. Great cast, good acting and a decent storyline. As Torque mentioned, it’s very much in the Christie style of murder mystery. Easy watching, suitable for kids and adults alike. |

Also "Knives Out" - maybe my favourite Radiohead song.
