Review: Rian Johnson brings back Daniel Craig’s southern detective Benoit Blanc to solve a new murder in “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery,” which opens in theaters this week for one week before hitting Netflix on Dec. 23.
Most of them are pretty terrible, though some are less self-aware than others. Claire, for instance, seems particularly tormented about the compromises she’s made to rise in politics while Birdie just breezes through life and various social media scandals mostly unfazed. But all of them are indebted in some way to the blustery egomaniac Miles, who dreams of being spoken of in the same breath as the Mona Lisa and exclusively communicates via fax machine.
Johnson could not have predicted that his movie would be coming out while we watched another tech billionaire attempt to run Twitter, but Miles’ bravado may sound familiar to anyone listening. Perhaps these disruptors aren’t as unpredictable as they think they are.It’s Miles who gets the gang together, promising that they’ll play a game to solve his murder designed by none other than “Gone Girl” author Gillian Flynn.
If the WASPy, New England style of “Knives Out” became as much of a talking point as the movie itself, one can only imagine how audiences will take to Jenny Eagan’s costuming efforts in “Glass Onion,” from Blanc’s modestly chic matching bathing costume to Birdie’s disco-glam halter dress. The set designer also has fun with the ’80s coke-den aesthetic of one of the key rooms.
The film will be in theaters this week, for a week, before streaming on Netflix on Dec. 23, which almost guarantees that the many, many cameos will be spoiled by the time it hits your home theater . But hopefully the theatergoing audiences will be kind enough to keep the real mystery under wraps. “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery,” is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association for “strong language, some violence, sexual material and drug content.” Running time: 139 minutes. Three stars out of four.MPAA Definition of PG-13: Parents strongly cautioned. Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13.
