Critics Consensus

Knives Out sharpens old murder-mystery tropes with a keenly assembled suspense outing that makes brilliant use of writer-director Rian Johnson's stellar ensemble.

Knives Outis never, ever dull and offers the kind of classy entertainment we could use more of on the big screen. And I have a feeling we'll see more of Daniel Craig's colorful character down the road.

"Knives Out," in the end, believes earnestly in the whodunit, it just wants to turn it inside out. To say more about that would spoil the fun. But keep an eye here, and elsewhere, on de Armas.

Rated: 3.5/4

The Australian

At two hours and 10 minutes the film's on the long side, but it's an entertaining enough pastiche and we haven't had enough of these in the cinema lately. The production design of the cluttered house is fabulous.

Knives Out is playful and entertaining but his commentary on political and personal detractions within his life spring forward...

Puesta en Escena (AR)

In Knives Out, the crime is treated through the police enigma genre that will keep the viewer entertained from beginning to end, through the excellent dosage of information and the different twists and turns that its resolution presents.

Rated: 8/10

Witty, unpredictable and surprisingly insightful, Rian Johnson’s whodunnit Knives Out keeps you guessing until the very end.

Phenomenal, as always. One of the best written movies ever, by far. The tightest script, every nuance is pure perfection.
