Knives Out Story: When a rich crime novelist is killed after his 85^th birthday, his entire family becomes a suspect.

Knives Out Review: Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer), a wealthy writer, is turning 85. His eclectic and eccentric family has become fragmented, but Harlan believes he can reunite them at his birthday. After the entire family gathers at his mansion to celebrate him, he is found dead the very next morning. When the police begin to investigate his death along with private investigator Benoit Blanc, (Daniel Craig), many family secrets come to light. There are now multiple murder suspects, and they must figure who is responsible for Harlan’s death.

Inspired by the plethora of Agatha Christie novels, writer and director Rian Johnson knows how to stage a murder mystery. Put an affluent old man at loggerheads with his family. Make each member intriguing, and give them reasonable cause – revenge, greed, spite, or all the above. Throw in a peculiar detective to solve the case, and watch the mayhem unfold.

But Johnson isn’t content with the plot playing out in predictable ways. Instead, his characters are so mesmerising that you often get sidetracked, by design. After all, these aren’t just big-name actors; they’re all competent performers. Daniel Craig completely throws you off with a thick and heavy Southern accent that could quickly go over the top. But Craig knows how to reel it in, in a masterful performance. We’re used to seeing Chris Evans play a heroic persona, but this time he’s often despicable as Ransom Robinson. The underrated Toni Collette gives a unique take on Joni Thrombey, Harlan’s daughter-in-law. The resurgence of Jamie Lee Curtis’s career continues as Linda, Harlan’s eldest daughter. However, ‘Knives Out’ is probably going to be the breakthrough film for Ana de Armas with her impressive performance.
