Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery Movie Description:
Tech billionaire Miles Bron invites his friends for a getaway on his private Greek island. When someone turns up dead, Detective Benoit Blanc is put on the case.
Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery is a 2022 American mystery film written and directed by Rian Johnson and produced by Johnson and Ram Bergman. It is the sequel to the 2019 film Knives Out, with Daniel Craig reprising his role as master detective Benoit Blanc as he takes on a new case revolving around a tech billionaire and his old friends. The ensemble cast includes Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe, Kathryn Hahn, Leslie Odom Jr., Jessica Henwick, Madelyn Cline, Kate Hudson, and Dave Bautista.
Johnson had considered the idea of several films featuring the Benoit Blanc character prior to the first film's release. A sequel was greenlit by its original distributor Lionsgate in 2020, but in March 2021 Netflix bought the rights to two Knives Out sequels for $469 million. The cast signed on that May. Filming took place on the island of Spetses, Greece, in June and July 2021, and continued elsewhere until September.
Following its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 10, 2022, Glass Onion began a one-week limited theatrical release on November 23, 2022, receiving the widest theatrical release ever for a Netflix film and grossed $15 million against a $40 million budget. Netflix began streaming it on December 23.
Similar to Knives Out, Glass Onion received critical acclaim, with praise for its screenplay, direction, performances (particularly those of Craig, Norton, Monáe and Hudson), and musical score, and was named one of the best films of 2022 by the National Board of Review.

I, too, over thought this entire movie!! I thought Miles was going to be the one to die, then Janelle's character. I stressed myself lol
Notice in these films when the camera work gets kinda crazy, whatever we thought was going to happen, isn't.
I couldn't stop laughing when he solved the murder mystery that was supposed to last the whole weekend instantaneously.
I think my favorite part is how he's more offended at how dumb the murders were than the murders themselves
Especially the idea stolen from him
@@Acorn_Anomaly and the cherry on top is how visibly upset he gets when he says a word that is wrong or doesn’t exist.
@@Acorn_Anomaly "It's so dumb, it's brilliant!" "No! It's just dumb!"
He truly 'disrupted' the weekend.
@@ReadingOne (randomly cuts to pokemon characters with annoyed expressions) Iris: took the words right out of our mouths... Pikachu: Pika...
Loved the reaction! Also, the Mona Lisa wasn’t really popular until it was stolen from the Lourve in 1911. Once they got it back, it had gotten so much press coverage that people were clamoring to see it :)
just wanted to add one of the thieves implicated early on was none other than pablo picasso.
Honestly kinda poetic and on theme for this movie
i've always seen mona lisa as a metaphor of how human's place absurd value in trivial things. so fitting wow
Oh fascinating, didn’t know!! Thanks
How do they know they got the real Mona Lisa back?
I just realized he even stole the idea to burn the napkin from Lionel omfg 32:20
WTF! This Guy Is Something Else Lmao
One of the easiest reasons you can tell Miles is the killer, is that when Helen / Andi shows up on the dock, all the Disruptors are a bit surprised to see her. When she gets off the ship, Miles Bron looks like he's seen a ghost. Vastly different levels of shock/surprise.
My family said it can’t be him cause it’s too obvious. That’s the point though cause people won’t think it’s the obvious one but I could tell the whole time he was the only main sus once I understood the story
@@lilybethkuhn9650 I mean I certainly didn't know it was him the first time I watched, so all my comments come from a hindsight perspective, but you can see Duke's phone in his back pocket, you can see the gun for a split second when he's running around the hallway. Blanc says "Helen" when they first run into each other.
I've seen people call it a "plothole" that he sent Andi a box. Two simple explanations for that happening.
1} No one was supposed to know she was dead. If he always sent an invite and suddenly did not, it would look odd.
1} There might be a long lead time getting the boxes made. He said his puzzle guy barely has time to make the five boxes. Andi's box would also have already been made, and they were probably sent right from the puzzle maker's shop.
His face and I saw him switch the drinks and the damn selfmade words. I
My favorite thing is that in Knives Out you could figure out Chris Evans was the bad guy because he was the only one using an Android phone. But after it became public knowledge that Apple doesn't like bad guys using their products in movies, Rian obfuscated Miles's villainy by having him use a FAX MACHINE.
He was so obsessed with being immortalized he couldn't imagine someone that just wanted justice taking the leap to ending him when they would have nothing left to lose.
She did indeed destroy the one thing nobody wanted to break.
@@zachgaskins3731 I love how Helen's final act of revenge perfectly mirrored Miles' disruptor speech.
i just watched this movie for the third time yesterday and i finally noticed that the entire time helen's hair was parted a different way than andi's, sort of to continue the idea that she wasn't who everyone thought she was. you know a murder mystery is good when you can still rewatch it and be entertained by all the new stuff you find. great reaction mell!
edit: watching your reaction i connected it to another comment i saw about how the ending look from helen is framed to look like the mona lisa but in actuality for the entire movie whenever you saw her give like a sultry look towards the camera she was imitating the mona lisa. and it's crazy because just like miles said that the mona lisa's face changes every time you look at it, in every scene helen gave the same look but it was the plot that decided the emotion being portrayed behind her stare. ughhh, i freaking LOVE going back and dissecting this stuff!!!!!
It was during this reaction that I noticed that in Helen's "Clue" list Miles's name has M and O next to it without any boxes for check marks. Showing that miles is the only one who had both motive and opportunity to kill Andi.
On a different viewing I realized Blanc says Clue is dumb because you just run from room to room searching for the evidence. Which is exactly what him and Helen have to do to find the envelope.
@@brandyanderson3522 not to mention that Helen finds it and Leblanc is working the motive
@@brandyanderson3522 wow, rian johnson really said, "i'm feeding all the mystery lovers" when he made these movies lol
I watched a reaction video yesterday and realized for the first time the invite said "Reply with any dietary restrictions." Dukie would certainly have alerted about his allergy. So, Miles would know how to kill him and make it look like an accident.
And when Mell mentioned Natasha in this reaction was the first time I realized she was in Benoit's club. I totally missed her somehow. And she is a favorite in anything.
@@scotthewitt258 I would never have noticed this insane detail, thanks!
Re: your question about why the Mona Lisa is so popular - having seen it in person, I can confirm that her expression really does seem to change in subtle ways that cameras can't quite capture: when viewed from slightly different angles (or out the corner of your eye) it suddenly looks like she's smiling fully, then looks like she's sad, then looks like she's serious or even angry. It all has to do with realllly subtle layering of colors and brushstrokes in the contouring around her mouth and eyes.
Damn having seen it in person I'm mostly impressed you were able to view it clearly from multiple angles instead of just trying to be lucky enough to see it from one angle because it's a small painting with a constant big group of people around it
@@greentaigo2552 Heh, I know! I got lucky and it was a slightly less crowded/busy day at the museum. I did still have to shuffle around some other people, but got a chance to fully appreciate it. :)
I just love the fact janelle monae has gone from quirky soul RB artist to incredible lead actress.
the way they just decided "i'm in movies now" and then immediately got an oscar nom for Moonlight? so fucking iconic god i live for Janelle
@@fauxrowsdower7610hii
I remember watching the movie and saying "Miles is an idiot." The car is on an island where he can't drive it, the big speech where he says effectively nothing, the super simple puzzles. But I thought it was too obvious he was the killer, despite the movie literally telling us "the answer is right in front of you." I loved the movie, thought it was hilarious and fun.
Well, he hired someone to make the puzzles, and the only one who found them simple was Duke’s mother. Blanc never tried to solve them since he never received a box.
But, yes, Miles is not smart and is the obvious killer. He’s the one who invited everyone to the island, and I was waiting for the poisoned drink (the first murder in And Then There Were None). I thought everyone would be murdered at first, really, because the setup was so similar.
Every joke about Miles being an idiot gets even funnier when you realize he’s based on Elon Musk
it gets even funnier when his supporters are pressed about it even tho the writer never name names
Well, not just Musk. I’d say he’s even more a Zuckerberg metaphor, given how Zuckerberg cut out his cofounder with deceit.
I think both Musk and Zuckerberg is the most accurate basis.
Famous for taking credit for what other people created. That tracks.
The whole island hippie vibe is way more Zuckerberg, but his relationship with Leonard is very Musk.
bro the way you edited yourself at the dinner table was HILARIOUS 🤣
well done my guy 🤌
"It's like I feel like I'm getting closer and they add some more layers."
And then the clues are revealed to have been right out in the open, obvious, clear as glass...
Movie title checks out.
lol, this was a good one. Not sure which way I'd rank the two - I liked them both. Didn't know more were planned but looking forward to any others they make.
The thing about clues that are clear as glass is that sometimes you look right through them
I believe Helen’s was referring to the actual Clue the board game and not the Clue 1985 film from which the movie is based on. Just letting you know in case you didn’t get what she had meant when she was telling Detective Blanc the little note book look liked! 👍
This movie was so brilliant I really loved it and knives out. I can't wait for the third installment.
hoping matt berry gets cast as a rival detective.
There was another comment saying that since the first two films followed an outcast woman getting set up as the suspect by a group, the 3rd film should switch up that formula!
But even if that doesn’t happen I’m sure it’ll be a blast, the first 2 films are AMAZING 🤩
For 'Knives Out' we had 'Sweet Virginia' by The Rolling Stones for the end credits.
For 'Glass Onion' we had 'Glass Onion' by The Beatles for the end credits.
Which song from an iconic 60s band do you think we could get for the third instalment? Or will they go for another decade?
Blanc is the audience in this movie. He's overthinking it and making it so complicated. And while doing so he overlooks what really is in front of him because it's so dumb. This is why he actually overlooks the fact that Helen suggest miles right away. But Blanc says it can't be Miles, because he is a genius and too smart to kill Andy right now.
Also if you look at the check board that Helen makes for motives and opportunity. Miles is up the top of the list with a M and O in the boxes instead of leaving it empty for the tally mark. Sneakily showing Miles had both motive and opportunity
Hats off to the director once again for one of the best murder mystery movies every!!!! The twist the audacity and the shear stupidity filled with more humor than I expected. Just bravo 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🤠
Not sure if anyone noticed or mentioned...but Angela Lansbury did a camo in this movie. May she rest in peace 🙏
Stephen Sondheim too, in the same scene. RIP
A stereogram is an optical illusion image that when viewed a certain way an image in the picture appears. Posters of stereograms were a popular fad years ago. Love this movie. The costumes, art, and set design are amazing.
Many years ago, someone gave a large framed stereogram to a manager in our building. As soon as I saw it, i immediately saw the hidden picture, when a lot of people didn't. Some simply couldn't, no matter how hard they tried. I was fascinated with the concept and bought a huge book of them. It was easy for me to see them back then. Now I have to concentrate more and let my eyes unfocus first. Heh.
@@MarshaLove0723what was hidden in it?
@@babotond a large eagle landing with wings spread
@@MarshaLove0723 wow!
I think a brilliant thing they did in this movie was that it was clearly a nod to Agatha Christie’s “And Then There We’re None,” so that I suspected Miles as soon as they got the invite, but then that Daryl character kept popping up, and I couldn’t figure out whether he was a red herring or whether he was the killer and they planted the idea of Miles to keep Christie fans from noticing a whole bunch of clues pointing towards Daryl. At one point I thought Daryl was the actual genius, but such a recluse that he let Miles be his frontman.
It feels like a whole love letter to Christie, because you can see a lot of "A Murder is Anounced" (even more so than And Then There Were None) and bits and pieces of "Evil Under the Sun" (both Birdie and Duke are very reminiscent of characters from that story) in Glass Onion.
Yes. Was the first thing that came to my mind, was also the point were I kinda suspected Miles more then anyone else.
Daryl is basically Kato Kaelin.
Yeah except everyone dies in And Then There Were None.
@@ashleighmodglin I assumed that many characters were going to die at the beginning... more than did. But that's the cool thing about these movies. They nod without copying and it leaves you making assumptions and then second and triple guessing yourself.
The sweatshop sweatpants made me think of Jessica simspsons' 'I didn't know buffalo have wings'🤣🤣🤣
The amount of celebrity cameos is insane. The guy who points out the song is a world famous composer, Yo-Yo Ma.
Yo-Yo Ma’s a cellist, not a composer
Mona Lisa was once upon a time just one of many paintings. Valuable, but not like it is today. But then it was stolen (1911) and the widely reported, brazen theft made the painting famous beyond reckoning. The dude literally just put the painting under his arm and walked out with it.
pretty sure the cameo at 2:55 is Yo-Yo Ma! so funny how he automatically calls the song title while Birdie’s trying to shazam it 🤣
I SWEAR, my main reason for watching this was to see Melo’s reaction to Kate Hudsons bikini walk. I was not disappointed Lmao
Edit: watched it again, my man’s brain STOPPED 🤣
It made me laugh when he said he had a crush on Kate when he was young. This is how us oldies do it: My boyfriend asked me who she was and I told him that she's Goldie Hawn's daughter. What a funny thing perspective is.
Mine was cause my sister wanted to see it plus Madelyn Cline is in it
Miles even says right at the beginning that he recently almost pancaked someone with his car. And then Duke said the same thing about somebody with a car almost pancaking him. I knew that Miles was the murderer of Andi. But I wasn't sure if he also killed Duke or not. The reveal was awesome though.
I absolutely loved this movie. These actors did a phenomenal job. Janelle Monae & Daniel Craig CARRIED 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This is one of the few movies that actually portrays the Mona Lisa properly. For example, she was featured briefly in Ever After with Drew Barrymore. However, there the painting is rolled up on canvas. In real life, the painting is on wood. You can even see the wood grain as she started to burn and the paint peels away.
Fun Fact: In the flashback bar scene, Edward Norton’s character is dressed like Tom Cruise’s character from Magnolia, which if you haven’t seen it yet, i highly recommend doing a reaction to it, not only is it one of Tom Cruise’s best performances, it’s also one of Paul Thomas Anderson’s best films imo.
Considering Miles' whole thing is being imitative, not innovative, it's hilarious that THAT Tom Cruise performance is the one he tried to emulate.
Also, apparently Norton and the costume designer just sprung that on Rian Johnson the day of filming and he loved it.
@@seamusburke639 genius 👌🏻
omg I was wondering why the look was so familiar lol
I do wonder if Norton had any input in that. He always does his research and tries to go all in with his characters.
I thought i was the only one who recognized that 😂
Respect the cock! And tame the cunt! 😂😂😂
The killer's plan is like a glass onion: it has so many layers, but even so you can see right through it.
The second I saw Benoit Blanc playing Among Us with Angela Lansbury and Stephen Sondheim I knew this was going to be an instant classic just like the first.
Yeah. The who dunnit was better in the first one but I love the fact that its kinda the point of them movie. The dude literally just killed all of them. Someone got in his way? He literally just walked up and killed them. He was a glass onion, Layers upon layers but its center is perfectly clear.
Note that all of the disrupters/shitheads only stand behind Helen once Miles has nothing left to give them. They only abandon him once his reputation is sure to be ruined and he no longer has the power to protect them. Only after that do they back Helen.
Two things quickly sun up Miles' character. Or lack thereof.
1} He has a cure/preventative for the Coof that works with one oral dose and instead of helping the world, he uses it to let a handful of people visit his island.
2} He way too casually tosses Paul McCarthy's guitar aside after using it for a prop for a few seconds.
The 'Hourly Dong' is voiced by Joseph Gordon Levit. In Knives Out, JGL also had a voice cameo. He was the detective on the TV show Marta's sister was watching on her laptop. (2nd scene in the movie).
I think the twist was better in this movie but because I was expecting a twist, it didn't land the same way the fist one did. Fun fact: the dude who played Daryl also played the fanboy white cop in Knives Out. Also a really cool detail is that a bunch of the statues in Miles' living room reference lyrics in the song Glass Onion. One of those lyrics is "A fool on the hill." That ends up being where the override switch is because Miles' is a fool on a hill.
The fact that blanc even called andi HELEN when they run into each other the first time, my brain didn’t even notice lol
I couldn't get over how absolutely gorgeous Janelle Monae was every time she was on the screen.
Fun Fact: Kareem is actually also an author who's recently written several mystery novels about Sherlock Holmes' older brother Mycroft in the British Secret Service.
I love how the movie ends with Helen in the same position as the Mona Lisa....
I totally forgot Leslie Odom Jr was in this!! I love him!! I love all of this cast lol
3:58 Story about Alexander the Great. A king tied a very complicated knot known only as the Gordion Knot. No one could untie it. And he told Alexander that if he could untie it then he would be the next king and that he would bow down to him. So Alexander just unsheathed his sword and cut right through the knot. The king had no choice but to bow down to him.
Mel missing all the clues by thirsting 😂
As soon as Mel said, "I'm trying to observe the whole room to see if I can pick up on things."
Misses the clue and talks about how nice Birdie's dress is. 😂
Omg I just realized he got the idea to burn the napkin from Lionel. He said right before. Jeez none of his ideas our his own lol. I love this movie!!!
When they solved the boxes and people were going off to pack Dukie yelled back into the kitchen "Mom, where is my speargun." It was his speargun Whiskey had in the room.
That was a perfect way to get back at him. The Mona Lisa is priceless I mean if you could put a dollars amount on it it would be billions of dollars but they say the Mona Lisa is priceless! He will forever be known as the man who destroyed the Mona Lisa.😁
I love you peeking behind the tree! Lol 😂🤣😅😁
I actually grew up on one of those islands. I literately went fishing on that pier 3 times a week when i was a kid. So weird seeing you review a movie with the location in it XD
I had the same feeling watching Knives Out, I have driven down the same Main Street from the movie
I think it’s so cool because blanc is the audience in many ways. The first one he is kind of aloof and like this is another case (us: another murder mystery) and now we’ve been waiting for the next one, but this time we are going to be ready for all the clues and details to figure out this twist next case. But as it turns out we were too invested to think smaller. To think of the case as a glass onion.
I still think the first one is so much better, but this was in no way a disappointment.
The reference to "Cluedo" is actually talking about the board game. "Clue" the movie is based on it.
Actually, the Mona Lisa didn't used to be that popular. Of DaVinci's paintings, it would hardly have been in any art historian's top 5, *until* it was stolen in 1911 (it was recovered about a year later). Newspapers around the world reported on it, with many of them showing a picture of it as well. Since then it's been the most famous painting ever.
Love this movie just as much as the first one, can't wait for the next installment ❤️ Can't have enough Murder Mysteries ❤️
I love the portrait Edward Norton's face on Brad Pitts body
Janelle Monae is STUNNING!!!😍😍😍
Why you saying this like a question?😂
@@TheSofkujepanen my bad
The way your editor placed you in the scenes are so cute lol I was like “look at him sitting at the dinner table” 😂
I love how you put yourself in the scenes, like the Murder Mystery Game, where you are in a seat there...😂
I agree that the revelation part was less strong than the first movie, it's still a good movie but the first one is unbeatable
Leonardo da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa that's why it's one of the most sought out beautiful paintings in the world.
Yo I didn't realize you actually see Miles hand Duke the drink the first time around
Oh my god...I just noticed the quote from Benoit...
"Miles Bron is not an idiot" 😅🤣
Oh my god i don’t know but the Dave Chapelle edit made me cry laughing.
And honestly this cast is so stacked. The mystery is slightly weaker but it’s still a great film. Please watch Death to Smoochy it’s a dark comedy with Edward Norton and Robin Williams as Kids show hosts. Danny Devito directed it.
Why is the Mona Lisa the most famous painting in the world? We could talk about Da Vinci's technique, or the mystery behind the identity of the person in the portrait (who was only ID'd about 20 years ago)...
....but that's not why it's the most famous painting in the world. It's the most famous painting in the world because it was stolen in a high profile heist 100 years ago, and it was missing for years before the culprit was caught and arrested. The crime made it THAT famous.
29:40 "That painting reminds me of fight club"
that was so funny to me bc Edward Norton (the guy who plays Miles Bron) also played the main character (The Narrator/Tyler Durden) in "Fight Club"
I've read that this painting is Norton's face attached to Brad Pitt's body circa Fight Club.
09:33 Omg you can actually see the recording device be thrown in the bag right here. That is insane
omggg i just realized that because of u
I'd say Knives Out was a 10/10, Glass Onion was a 9/10. A step down, but not by much and I'm excited for whenever the 3rd comes out.
Giving a movie 10/10 is a overstretch tbh.
Giving a movie 10/10 means that it cannot be made any better. It is literally not possible to make a better movie... and let's be honest here, Knives out/ Glass Onion is good and all.. But nowhere near a 10/10.
Knives out 1 was really great actually. I had to watch it the 3rd time to fully understand the narratives and the clues along the movie that I didn't realize before
@@nataliep6385 You sound like a teacher that refuses to give any of their students an A+ lol
@@theonegoldengryphon Haha true.. I've always felt like the IMDB rating from 1-10 is stupid. It honestly should be 1-100.
@@nataliep6385 Yeah, that would make more sense. And for the record, I do agree with you that it’s impossible to make a perfect movie. I just always viewed 10/10 as “It’s as close to perfect as anyone could get”
Bro, you NEED to react to Viola Davis’s “The Woman King”. Top 5 of the year and will def move you emotionally and has great action. TRUST ME!
Now watch Clue 1985 , that movie is Hilarious , the ensemble cast is amazing and the Charisma that the Actors exuded is something serious !
I'm proud of myself for noticing that drink switch
I just finished watching this myself and it was better than I thought it was gonna be.
Oh Miles you done goofed 🤣
whiskey😏, burbon😃, margarita😌
Fun fact: there’s an upside down painting. Because Miles doesn’t know it’s the wrong side up
About the Mona Lisa, it's popularity is pretty funny story.
Basically at first no one cared for it, so a guy stole it from the Louvre, and it took a while for people to realize it was missing, because it wasn't considered important.
But then newspapers began to talk about the disappearance, and people began to follow the investigation like it was a weekly series. And when they finally brought it back, everyone wanted to see the painting that made the news.
That's how it became a popular painting
13:15 I can tell you exactly why the Mona Lisa is considered so valuable; it was stolen.
Three Italian handymen just walked out of the Louvre with it in 1911. Before that, the painting was only appreciated in art circles, not by the general public. Nobody even noticed it was gone for over a day.
And even when they began investigating the theft, it became more about national identity. DaVinci was Italian, but the Mona Lisa had ended up in a French museum. And there were concerns that Americans had tried to steal it, or even Kaiser Wilhelm in Germany. In the end, the thieves were busted trying to sell it two years later to a collector.
In the end, that makes Miles' appreciation ironic; he talks a lot about the brush technique or the mysterious smile, but in the end, he wants the Mona Lisa because it's famous and he wants to be famous too.
I really enjoyed this movie. Knives out was top tier for me and this one was up there with it. I can’t wait for this director to do more
I may be alone but I think killing with a pineapple allergy was brilliant. The bad guy could have passed it off as an accident
If he burned the red envelope before the party and did nothing else. He might have gotten away with it
literally watched the movie bc i knew you’d be reacting. so excited to see what you think
I loved both of these, though I liked the setting of the first one, as it was more "classic". I liked the characters in this one a slight bit more and I loved the Wooden Boxes at the beginning! I can't wait for the next one!
29:40 the reason the painting reminds you of fight club is because it’s a painting of Edward Norton’s head on Brad Pitt’s body from fight club. Had me rolling when I found out
I agree, I also did like the mystery of the first movie better. But everything else like the little twists, acting and setting, I liked in this movie better. Which makes this movie for me a slightly better movie. Not much, but just slightly. Love both of them though.
Both were great but I like the first one better.
I love Edward Norton, he's so good. I think they did some great casting, especially with him & Janelle
If you're looking for other fun/quirky murder mysteries, you should watch Murder By Death. It's ridiculous but amusing. And of course Clue.
5:32 Ethan Hawke cameo'd in this film because he was nearby shooting "Moon Knight" and the director asked him to come over and do this one-and-done scene.
This is a great movie for re-watching, I've seen it four times and I notice new details every single time I watch it, it's so good man
That was Yo Yo Ma at the party describing the song, watching with subtitles gives you so much more context sometimes.
Just watched the movie last night. And watching this reaction, it’s fun seeing stuff click into place knowing everything.
I don't comment on a lot of movie reaction videos. But it's so rare that I hear anyone talk about iRobot. For years, that was one of my favorite movies. I was so surprised when you casually brought it up. Great movie reference.
consider how different Benoit's little line about the difference between speaking without thought and the truth lands compared to the disruption monologue.
Fun fact: the hourly "dong" is voiced by Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
This was a great film,I loved Helen she was badass as hell
“What’s up with this fake ass character?”
I straight up thought she might really be Andi pretending to have a sister for a good 30-40 minutes
I think the first was better, but it's a close call. I didn't have the emotional investment I had from the first one. I didn't have my Marta to feel for from the very beginning. I was cheering for Helen, but we didn't technically meet her until more than halfway through.
Also, yeah, Birdie is acting pretty crazy in the second half of the night, but the movie actually kind of explains it. When Helen is going through Birdie's things, she empies some stuff and a blotter of acid falls out. Birdie is tripping on LSD the second half of the night.
IVE BEEN WAITING ON THIS ONE TURN IT UPPP💃🏾I watched the movie 2 days ago couldn’t waittt for your reaction
Benoit asks the best questions (Is that some kind of disinfectant? Why is [your car] on the roof?), and never gets answers. These characters are not used to answering to anyone.
Mell really saw Kate Hudson in that orange bikini and forgot what he was doing for a hot minute 😂

I really thought that if they wanted to give it a subtitle, it should have been A Benoit Blanc Mystery. People remember Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, and Sherlock Holmes, but they don't remember the story in which they first appeared.

2:55 That is Yo-yo Ma 😂 Famous cellist.
007 Daniel Craig with a southern accent is so precious 💋
Keep killing it Mell 💪🏾
GLASS ONION IS ALSO A RESTUARANT IN DOWNTOWN CHARLESTON SC.
