I really liked the movie, I could feel that they didn't beat around the bush and they were clear about where they wanted to go, it usually happens with the mystery and comedy genre that from the beginning they don't show a direction, but end up going around in circles making it repetitive and very boring, where the humor is forgotten and we only see a mess of ideas.
With Knives Out this mistake does not happen because it has a clear structure and no matter how exaggerated or unbelievable the situations or arguments used to shape the story ends up working, since it does not depend on one idea to develop but several that together form a perfect way to walk and not fall into the repetitive.
When the same film gives us some clues we can see that they are not afraid to show what for the viewer can be an important fact or what we call movie lovers a spoiler that ruins the plot, but it does not happen, since the direction is another and that resource is used not to give you a guide, but to confuse you as we move forward.
IS IT PREDICTABLE, not at all, on the contrary, it is a little difficult to understand where they want to go and a single twist in it is what makes it attractive and deserves that we give it a chance from beginning to end. The actors themselves are not the best to generate that humor or comedy that makes us laugh to death, but they do manage to connect with their characters and convey the mystery that surrounds the main plot.
WILL WE HAVE A SECOND PART, I was doing some research on whether there is a second part and it seems that Netflix bought the rights not only to release the second part but also a third part and for a ridiculous amount of money, I can understand that they are betting on a product that may not give them high profits taking into account that they will pay millions of dollars to obtain the rights. Which leaves me with the idea that they are betting on attracting more viewers and keeping them interested in their platform, since lately we see that they have had no luck with some movies that sadly have been a failure.

@bigcarrillo they said the Knives Out 2 will be an entirely new story and new cast of characters, but one figure on the first of Knives Out is set to make return, according to some articles that I've read, and I think it's definitely not Christopher Plummer...😇 Maybe it's Daniel Craig?
