Dove guardare Glass Onion - Knives Out
- Jack Blitz21 dicembre 2025This was a really fun watch, and the first hour-and-a-half lived up to the first film. It had the classic Knives Out humor with wonderful twists and surprises. That said, I was not a fan of the ending and personally did not feel as satisfied as the first two-thirds of the film lead to me to think I would feel.
- makdelart27 gennaio 2026The plot is well constructed, cleverly revealed to the viewer bit by bit, teasing us at certain points and misleading us (in this respect, it is even better than the previous part). The acting is well done, and although the ending is perhaps a little disappointing, I enjoyed myself.
- Shaydeknight13 dicembre 2025Glass Onion is an entertaining, well-mounted film that nonetheless falls short of the elegance and narrative discipline that made Knives Out such a standout. While Rian Johnson again assembles an excellent ensemble and delivers moments of sharp satire, the film ultimately undermines itself by drifting away from the classic whodunnit structure it initially promises. The cast is uniformly strong. Every performer understands the assignment, and the chemistry among them is undeniable. Daniel Craig, in particular, plays Benoit Blanc well. His Southern-gentleman eccentricity is now fully realized, and Craig plays him with confidence, charm, and fair comic timing. There is no question that Blanc works as a recurring character. That said, the film leans heavily into a trope that is wearing thin: the brilliant detective who is at loose ends when not actively solving a case. Blanc's boredom-driven restlessness feels less like character texture and more like narrative convenience. In this installment, that boredom becomes ethically questionable. Without delving into specifics, the plot eventually frames Blanc as someone willing to insinuate himself into dangerous circumstances largely to amuse himself, a choice that places others in jeopardy and subtly erodes the character's moral authority. It made me like him less, not more. Structurally, this is where Glass Onion most diverges from Knives Out. Rather than adhering to a clean, forward-moving whodunnit structure, the film fractures its own momentum. Just as the audience settles into one version of events, the narrative resets into an extended replay from a different perspective, invoking a Rashomon-style recontextualization. While intellectually defensible, this device proves dramatically tedious. It drains tension instead of heightening it, replacing deduction with repetition and explanation. Visually, the film is polished and attractive. The locations and production design are impressive, though the presence of CGI is occasionally noticeable in a way that slightly breaks immersion. This is a minor complaint, but worth noting given how tactile and grounded Knives Out felt by comparison. Finally, the dialogue and satire are a mixed bag. The film is densely packed with myriad contemporary references, name dropping, and deliberately obnoxious "disruptor" characters. While this excess is clearly intentional (the point being that these people are shallow, performative, and fundamentally awful) the result is still grating. Satire does not always excuse irritation, and at times the film mistakes noise for bite. In sum, Glass Onion is smart, well-acted, and often amusing, but it is also overindulgent and structurally unfocused. Where Knives Out trusted the pleasures of a classical mystery, Glass Onion seems more interested in subverting expectations, even when doing so weakens the experience. An enjoyable film, certainly, but a lesser one.
