Knives Out- Movie Review
“Knives Out” is a well-mounted, star-studded, old-style murder mystery that’s entertaining while it lasts.
The mystery stems from the death of 85-year-old Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer), the world’s bestselling mystery writer who made a multimillion-dollar business empire out of his crime novels.
While the police are ready to call Harlan”s death an open-and-shut suicide case, a private detective named Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig), suspecting foul play, decides to treat every member of the Trombey”s household — including Thrombey”s children and their families, and Thrombey”s Hispanic nurse Marta (Ana De Armas) — as suspects.
