‎‘Knives Out’ review by Once upon a Tom in Hollywood • Letterboxd

Knives Out 2019 ★★★★½

Rewatched Jun 14, 2020

But we must look a little closer. And when we do, we see the donut hole has a hole in its center. It is not a donut hole, but a smaller donut with its own hole. And our donut is not a hole at all! 🍩

A master class in stealthily setting up every third act reveal and then knocking them down, one by one. Rian Johnson took his Star Wars blank check and turned it into something truly magnificent. Holds up fantastically on rewatch. In fact, I’m raising it half a star. Highly Recommended.
