It’s not as good as the first one.
Won’t last long, I predict…
Looks like the YouTube account was compromised, given they uploaded 2 videos 15 years ago then nothing until a few days ago when they started posting full movies.
From my outside of it all perspective, witchcraft and the weather could predict that as much as anything. I’ve seen blockbusters stay up for ever and low budget B-movies get taken down in no time.
Youtube uses automated content detection systems such as these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_ID on behalf of copyright holders. Sometimes the copyright holders don’t care, sometimes the detection systems screw up, and sometimes the posters have licensed the content.
This is the same director who made that very superficial Star Wars movie, isn’t it? I keep hearing good things about him, but that history just makes me suspicious of him.
Imo star wars is the outlier in his work. Looper, knives out, and glass onion are all worth a watch.
The 2 Knives out movies are really amazing. It’s clear that he understands and adores the murder mystery genre, and plays around with it in these two movies.
There’s so many subtle things to pay attention to, hints that seem weird or jarring but make absolutely perfect sense in retrospect. The classic big reveal where the detective explains what’s really been going on the whole movie is amazing in both. By the time that reveal happens, if you’ve really been paying attention, you can have the answers to who, how and why already solved and feel proud of yourself (or be like me and only have who and why, but not the how).
Sorry for gushing, but both the Knives Out movies are absolutely must-watch movies if you have even a passing interest in murder mystery fiction.
