Knives Out 3. 👍 No Spoilers. One line killed me.

Wake Up Dead Man
Obviously there’s death. There are two really unnecessary references to masterbation (IMHO).

Josh O’Connor was really good in this. Considering the cast (see below )…he lead and stood out.

Jeremy Renner’s character said a line I laughed so hard at we had to pause the movie.
His wife left him “..for a guy she met in a Phish message group”.

There another scene with his character going down stairs. Very funny. NO SPOILERS.

There’s an homage to “Princess Bride” (I think) with coffee cups.
Glenn Close’s character has a look and reference to Cloris Leachman in “Young Frankenstein”. A running joke about surprising and scaring people.


One character- Cy - is a failed rightwing politician and he has one part where he runs down all the right wing talking points he used in his campaign but failed to make people scared enough. It’s very spot on.

Cast
Daniel Craig - impeccably costumed by Jenny Eagan
Josh O'Connor
Glenn Close
Josh Brolin - very Jesus look.
Mila Kunis - as the Sheriff 👍
Jeremy Renner
Kerry Washington - always fantastic
Andrew Scott - always good.
Cailee Spaeny
Daryl McCormack
Thomas Haden Church

1. It's really good.

It's very different from the other two. It's a bit more serious in tone.

10. Yes they kept the victim alive a lot longer in this one.

👍

2. I liked it!

I think Daniel Craig worked on his southern accent a bit. 😀

7. I'd heard criticism of that from someone from Savannah

Yes I think he has. I doubt I could afford it but I’d like to have one suit like he wears.

[Lars39]

13. He is a snappy dresser

[Aristus]

17. Yes; it's much better this time around.

It still jumps around the South quite a bit, but this time, he keeps it mostly to Georgia and South Carolina.

3. I laughed at the same line.

This is my favorite of the series.

[dflprincess]

4. I loved Cy running down his right wing talking points but not scaring people enough

is where I had to pause it while I laughed.

5. Josh O'Connor is one of my favorite actors. He was superb in The Durrells.

I enjoyed this Knives Out better than the first one.

11. I'd never seen him in anything

I’ve looked up The Durrells. Looks good. Thanks.

[chowder66]

12. He also plays Prince Charles in The Crown.

He was in Ripper Street and a small part on Peaky Blinders. He's been a lot of movies.

6. Just saw it tonite

Yes funny and the one character deadpanning GOP talking points was hilarious and really had nothing to do towards the plot so not a spoiler.

They also alluded to Cy making Wicks a cult personality and running for President

This movie is fresh in the theatres starting 12/25, though it did premiere at a festival back in September.

15. Oh. Oops

That explains the low box office number.
