That’s like an extra layer of humor, since I’m pretty sure he only joined Moon Knight because Oscar Isaac saw him in a coffee shop and convinced him to be in it.

[@MrAntonla]

That doesn't really make sense, though. It is possible that the logistics were made slightly easier given that Ethan Hawke was in Europe, but there is still quite far (1,186 km/737 mi as the crow flies) from Budapest to Spetses, where Glass Onion was shot.

[@kacektv9405]

My absolute favorite part of the conclusion is the fact that the stability Miles offered was still enough to make them side with him. As Helen wonderfully put it "You would lie for a lie but not lie for the truth" BUT that gets totally thrown out the window when the scientist, politician and media mogul are like "We cant be supported by the guy who destroyed the Mona Lisa....also the murders but that Mona Lisa thing" That's how ya do some biting commentary.

[@edisonlima4647]

Yeah, to keep their reputations tied to the man that got the Mona Lisa destroyed would be beyond toxic to the career of anyone that depends on public perception. It would make Birdie's "I'm just like Harriet Tubman" interview look like being photographed wearing ugly boots in comparison.

[@mckenzie.latham91]

Actually the whole part of that scene is not just to get rid of bron but also to defend Helen Bron wants to blame her and push it all on her for blowing up the onion and the mona lisa if he did that, then the blame would be on her not him, if they were only lying only to protect themselves, they would stick with him and blame her and say she blew the whole thing up in enact of sabotage or terrorism they’re not. The disruptors each claim that they will lie (in order to punish him for what he has done) to get him caught for his various crimes if he tries and goes after her, She broke his hold on them so they’re protecting her.

[@cozmicshroomzpro1]

Loved how they sho that the 'disruptors" were all phonies who enjoyed rebeling against the system but not wanting to actually tear it down.

The overall mystery wasn’t as strong as the first one but the performances and cinematography were incredible if not better. Janelle performed her ass off 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@kaylons]

For the mystery, I strongly believe that's the point. This movie is deliberately anticlimactic, in that regard. Best example being the tense scene where the Mona Lisa's security system kept being set off by the phone dinging (explicitly told to us by Miles moments before), the camera zooming in on her face every time. There is a clear, established tempo. Duke's death took _longer_ to rhythmically settle in. The score for his death scene is also a smidge quieter than the CLUNK! of the security system. It's a tonal shift jarring enough to throw us off balance. Why deliberately anticlimactic tho? Blanc, upon solving the mystery, is furious and points out the metaphor of the Glass Onion - densely layered, but crystal clear at its center. He bluntly states how moronic the mystery (and Miles Bron) is. In _Knives Out,_ Blanc's aloofness is made the butt of the joke many times throughout - he only proves his expertise in the final confrontation with Ransom, at the end. This movie makes certain his intelligence, perception, experience, and smarts are put at the forefront this time - he solves Bron's planned murder mystery minutes before it happens, we get more insight into his status and resources, as well as his arc with Helen. I hope it's easier now to understand that this was 110% intentional from the start. I edited this comment to bring clarity to ny opinion. Not to mention, if you love KO... being underwhelmed will hit harder. I'm sure Rian took that into consideration when he helmed its sequel. But ofc, agree to disagree. Have a good day, everyone!

[@The_Gidz]

The killer was much more obvious in the first one from the beginning tbh

[@Toidal]

It lost a bit of the intimacy from the first movie where it tracked Armas' character for the most part of the film. The first movie also felt like a 2nd person perspective like each time a character was providing information it was provided like in a murder mystery game, facing the camera as if directly to the viewer. I ended up not missing that intimacy early on when it decidedly went it's own route early on.

[@valentinafangirling]

@@Toidal this is exactly it!!! I kept thinking about it bc i liked the cinematography on this new one more, and the acting was just as good. So I couldn’t wrap my head around why the first one felt better. Like the mystery felt a little weaker, but i liked the commentary as to why (rich people on power not necessarily being smart, they just can get away with shit). But its exactly what you said!!! So much on the first one felt like a bigger mystery because we found out about things through Ana de Arma’s character and we only saw what she saw constantly. A style of movie telling and intimacy with the story was lost when doing it differently in this sequel. A great movie still though!!! I even hope they go a whole different route on the next one (Netflix bough the rights for 2 films)

And the fact that they show you that he hands Duke his own glass at first, but then later show the version that he “tells” everyone what happened. I caught that too! But because of how it played out in the movie, I second guessed myself for a little bit. I thought, “oh maybe I’m just remembering wrong.” And I so love how they peppered in all of the details! They’re there for people to see and work out on their own. I wasn’t sure about Andi’s “death” when she gets shot, at that point, I figured anyone could have done it.

[@VMYeahVN]

I actually really appreciated that Glass Onion was set in present day. It sets it apart from movies of this genre from the past because usually this genre is relegated to being period pieces usually set in the 50s or prior. And most movies of this genre about murder mysteries itself are a genre of Hollywood past. So to see one both made in present day and set in present day really helps it feel fresh.

[@edisonlima4647]

Yeah, which is so strange because Agatha Christie herself set every single one of her mystery novels in what was "present day" at the time of their publication (well, except for "Death Comes at the End", which was set in Ancient Egypt). And not only that, she sometimes seemed to actively work against nostalgia. If there is an artist of any ilk in one of her stories, you could bet that their style would be the most modern (or post-modern) possible. The same for the decoration of the settings. I think the tv show Poirot was the only one I ever watched that accurately portrayed how un-Edwardian the country homes of the rich often were in Christie's novels.

[@RobinHood3000]

Agreed. Rian Johnson has said in interviews that it was important to him that, like with Christie, the stories themselves are contemporary to when they were written instead of period pieces. If you ask me, it takes a really bold and brilliant writer to write a rock-solid murder mystery in the style of Christie in the age of smartphones and the Internet.

I loved Daniel Craig as usual he had me rolling lol 😂 and I love Janelle Monae. And Dave Batista was funny AF. The whole cast . Omg Edward Norton reminded me of his character in birdman an over the top jerk. Lol This deserves Screenplay love. It's not easy to write a script with this many characters and it works.. Brilliant writing.

[@thales8153]

I think the pandemic tell us too who the characters are, Birdie was throwing a party and using a mask with holes in it, Duke didn't care about masks and huging, Claire pretended to care when answering the door and Lionel who isn't a bad person was using a mask... Idk, maybe i'm just thinking too much hahah

[@DazzerrPlays]

They were actually making fun of masks and vaccines in this movie. They ask what the "medicine" they were just given and they aren't told they just follow the what the "elite" give them and don't get answers. It's a play on liberals lol

[@applepie6832]

Lionel is as bad as everyone else but he’s a man of science which is why he wears his.

[@gjcVideos27]

Fun fact- Edward Norton and Chris Evans- Who play Ransom and Miles- Are both introduced second in the trailer after Daniel Craig, and they both end up being the killers!

[@I-speak-U-shut-it]

Captain America and the best Hulk (to me): "HAIL HYDRA!"

[@thekaijusleeps]

That moment you realize that even the burning of the napkin didn't actually come from Miles's head; he probably forgot he had the lighter on him until Lionel asked him why he didn't just burn up the napkin when he found it in the first place.

[@bpowick]

A few things I picked up on a second watch through… You do see Miles hand Duke the tainted glass and when Blanc runs into ‘Andi’ just before she’s shot he calls her Helen (even though the switch-a-roo hasn’t been revealed yet). They’re things I didn’t even notice first time around because Rian Johnson is clever enough to make you see / hear things the way he wants you to until everything is revealed. Great movie. Can’t wait for the next one.

[@Joncjames]

Bruh…I saw this in theaters during its limited release and enjoyed it. The one thing I kept on returning to and saying under my breathe every time the Jesus mural appeared in a scene was, “Is that Kanye West?” And now, after watching your reaction, I can definitely confirm that it is indeed Kanye West. Genius. 😂😂😂😂

[@tkay999]

When does he appear? What have is missed? 😮

[@princess_pinkxoxo2028]

Thank you. I thought I was the only one 😂😂

[@StaleBread]

Just finished this movie and was fucken stocked to jump onto KZbin and see you guys have posted a reaction. I don’t know how, but Rian Johnson has done it again. He has truly made the Whodunit genre his own, and has somehow reinvented it twice over. Excited to see what mysteries lie in the future for Benoit Blanc. Great reaction, keep up the good work!!

[@rockandfashion7207]

A funny detail is that Miles even stole the idea of burning the napkin from Lionel 🤦‍♀️

[@cjcaday3812]

The best thing that makes this film beautiful is when they make daniel craig and hugh grant as a couple 😍❤️

[@DavidHLee]

it's a worth a rewatch for extra hints and clues. it's so well done

[@GeeklyGoods]

I need to watch this again!

[@brandyanderson3522]

I like the, possibly unintentional, call back to Edward Norton's character in The Italian Job never having an original plan. NOICE

[@MavenCree]

Didja catch the Joseph Gordon Levitt cameo in this one? Same as the last one really... .....He's the voice of the Hourly Dong 😆 In the script, it was Gong, but Norton said Dong by accident in one take and Rian loved it and so they changed it and went with that.

[@pierrewillful]

At the very end she gave a look parallel to Mona Lisa.. Leading back to what they said about the expression and how the perspective and angle mean everything in variation. Nice shot and callback!

[@TheRandomBits431]

during the first hour, there were just random dialogues from each character that it makes no sense....then here comes the second half of the movie and those dialogues makes sense now...great story telling....i hope they will make more of this because it's kinda of fun..especially the murder solving part...the casts were great...Dave Bautista is really good in this...he is getting better and better and hoping to see him in other movie projects he is in....

[@Edward-we9dl]

Oh my god I just finished watching this on Netflix and I turned on KZbin to see this. Can life be any better?

[@sleepydurgen1909]

Something I didn't notice my first time watching until this was when Blanc met 'Andi' on the steps when the lights were out he calls the name Helen.

[@forgetmenotjimmy]

Great reaction! One of my favourite things about this movie is how genuinely angry Benoit gets at Miles' stupidity. It was a joy to watch.

[@ScorpionStrike7]

Whoever does the outfits and interior design in these movies did such a great job

[@aspen1889]

The glass breaking scene may be my favourite in this movie. The first Knives Out had the return of Harlans line about a man being unablr to tell a real knife from a prop to the end. It came back from the dead. In thjs one, Helan turns Miles belief against him. "It starts with small things" the glass cup "then it gets bigger" the animals tl the grand statues and finally "the thing no one wants you to break" the mona lisa

[@X-otaax]

I just watched this movie, ive been waiting for this for like a year and ive been counting down the days. I got to say, not as good as the first one, but still pretty epical.

[@r.h.6249]

This movie is so damn rewatchable...when you watch it again you can pick up all the missing details..it is so fun and now i cant wait to see this bunch of times so that i can pick up more of the missing details and please for the love of God, dont watch Heavy Spoilers or any other missing detail video...this is the fun part of the movie

[@thatoneguy9399]

For me, this is on the same level as the first movie; both have their own things that make it a unique murder mystery, and I could watch both easily

[@kathdemitry1259]

I just watched it and it was soooo goooood!!! I really thought Kathryn Hahn would be the one who got the gun and put something on Dave's drink. Also, the cats at the back just casually walking, love them. For a second I thought it was just one cat.

[@katashworth41]

When I saw this in the cinema, Hugh Grant appearing took the house down. I think it’s just cos we want a competent prime minister. And it wouldn’t be a Daniel Craig film if a beautiful car didn’t get totalled.

[@mr_officialmusic]

19:09 I've watched this with three different groups of people, and no one even bats an eye that Blanc calls her "Helen". It's right there, and we don't see it. Unbelievable.

[@louisberry4403]

Liked the first one more but still a entertaining, funny, And Worthy Sequel. Love seeing more of Blanc And Janelle is amazing. Enjoy the twists and turns of the first one and it keep me more engaged throughout but still enjoyed it and excited for Knives Out 3.

[@mxrdersimulator]

this franchise is one of my favourites in the entire world rn, and benoit blanc is one of my favourite characters ever. i got to see this movie the 1 day it showed in cinemas where i live, and i am SO glad i did

[@octane7774]

Idk if I'm tripping but when Edward Norton character was rapidly explaining before the power went out reminds me of his performance in fight club, he even had a poster behind him that looked like a fight club reference.

[@chilibreath]

I just watched this movie last night with my cousins and it was awesome. Fun fact: Ethan Hawke was filming another movie nearby, and Rian invited him to film the cameo on the docks. Review of the review: was waiting to see when both kitties walking in the background would be picked up and petted.

[@brutishwing2.090]

Love how Daniel Craig went from Bond to these films, absolutely love his character and acting.

[@druidriley3163]

He certainly enjoys it. Came from a role that had HUGE physical demands on him to sitting in baths and easy chairs, smoking and drinking.

[@billbill6094]

They thought we wouldn't notice the Deja Vu cats in the backgroind, but we did.

[@kagurra]

ur cat really distracting me, so cuteee😭 love the reaction!

[@Smartz118]

Miles Bron really is a great metaphor for glass: it is strong in appearance and can be beautiful, but on the inside, it is empty (like his head) and fragile.

[@chrisleneil]

Love the Benoit Blanc scarf! Great films, both!

[@cairothetiefling_]

I never noticed- but right before she gets shot, Benoit breaks their cover story to us and calls her 'helen' instead of her twin's name

[@lanagievski1540]

I love that Hugh Grant just shows up for less than 15 seconds as Benoit’s husband. Excellent.

[@josephstrouse6369]

The shirtless painting of Miles is actually Brad Pitts's body from Fight Club with Norton's head of course. Brilliant!

[@hydralissk]

It's kind of funny how Edward Norton's character in this film is somewhat similar to his character in The Italian Job. Both are unimaginative and use other's ideas/dreams in order to better and enrich themselves. The main difference is that Edward Norton probably enjoyed making this movie more than the contractually obligated Italian Job.

[@osianharries2771]

It’s mad watching this through a second time, one thing i noticed here was that when benoit and Helen meet up after the lights go off before we find out her actual identity he just flat out calls her helen instead of andi

[@lolasroom7171]

There is a Beatles song called Glass Onion. John Lennon made the song to confuse people who look for clues and lyrical meanings in Beatles songs, which he did not like.

[@abaddonarts1129]

I saw this when it first came out, and I gotta say, it's so cool knowing all the little details that I missed the first time. Really helps in spotting all the tells and tidbits.

[@mohzayd1234]

If you look at the official posters for both Knives Out and Glass Onion, you realise that the second actor listed after Daniel Craig is the main antagonist of the films and the last actor listed is the one who dies. Also the third actor is the main protagonist aside from Benoit Blanc.

[@thecornplainer8063]

that might not be intentional though, since both Chris Evans and Edward Norton are the most famous of them (maybe Jamie Lee Curtis) besides Daniel Craig

[@mohzayd1234]

@@thecornplainer8063 if it’s the same with knives out 3 then it’s definitely intentional.

[@chrisperry7558]

I really liked the ending with Helen in the Mona Lisa pose.

[@wampa25]

Rian Johnson should write mystery novels. He has a serious gift for it.

[@Odd_Bunny]

Every part of this movie had a satisfying bookended ending. By far one of my favorite murder mysteries of all time

[@agenttheater5]

32:30 And when he arrived he was playing 'Blackbird' on the guitar he said Paul McCartney wrote it on. The obvious problem then is that he as good as just instantly tossed it aside with a loud clunk. But the other thing is that he was playing it right-handed - and Paul McCartney is left handed. So he either lied to show off (and unlike the Louvre lockdown wouldn't affect Paul McCartney's bank roll so why would he even loan it out?) or it means he was playing a left handed guitar right handed.

[@jacktheoven]

after watching this for a second time today i think i might actually prefer it to the first one now

[@I-speak-U-shut-it]

FACTS Glass Onion picked up the pace. Considering I have a attention span as a dog. The 1st Knives out was a slow burn. Though they have Anna De Armas in it. Her sexy self saved me from turning the channel 😍Love her in Knock Knock.

[@aliceramenhead]

@@I-speak-U-shut-it Ana de Armas omg 🔥🥵 Knock Knock is such a mid movie thooooo, like she & Keanu & Lorenza Izzo were really doing the most to save that godawful script from imploding on itself and they were only succeeding for like every third scene lmao
