When Knives Out was released back in 2019, a lot of people underestimated just how great it was going to be. These ensemble pieces are often disregarded, as though the stellar cast somehow tarnishes the quality of the film. I do think film-goers anticipated the humorous moments, as these were evident in every television spot and advertisement - particularly those that featured Chris Evans’ character, Ransom. What they weren’t prepared for was how complex of a whodunit the narrative would turn out to be. They didn’t yet appreciate how much of a murder mystery aficionado Rian Johnson truly is. And his ode to Agatha Christie in the first installment of the franchise (yes, franchise) was quite an impressive homage.
After the film was lauded by critics and audiences alike - even garnering a nomination at the Academy Awards for Best Original Screenplay for Rian Johnson - people wanted more.
But when you have a film that gains traction after being underestimated in the way Knives Out was, the pressure for the sequel to measure up is even greater.
The short answer is: Yes - when you're Rian Johnson and you have your thumb on the pulse of society and match that with another gratifying and captivating web of mystery like he has done here in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery.
