I thought the twin sister had decent charisma, but that left when she had to play the colder Andi character. Which sort of says to me that she did a decent job acting.That's more indicative of the writing, rather than her acting chops.
No wonder half her dialogue scenes in Moonlight the camera points to someone else while she's talking. She's just not a very good actress.
Regarding 1
I know that but so what? How can she or anyone prove that she didn't just go to a place after she lost the case to get a new tissue printed with the bar name on and then copy the text Miles was branding about on his version of the napkin in the press?
It would look convenient and something if it happened in real life make people go "bullshit"
nopeIs it better than knives out, which was crap?
Indeed. if anything it’s something I considered a fair criticism of the first one (largely ‘cos it seemed bizarrely over-praised for essentially a big budget Jonathan Creek!) but is now also a defence of this one, as…. What are you actually expecting from a comic whoodunnit?But in reality the answer to most of these quibbles is "the big silly murder mystery film is designed to be fun while you're watching it, not to be free of plotholes or impervious to people picking it apart afterwards".

Marginally. I got to the end of this one.Is it better than knives out, which was crap?
Stop stealing my descriptions, stealer.yeah I thought Monae was pretty charming as the sister.

Also everytime things like this try and be ‘proper cinema’ they end up like Gone Girl, which I will die on the hill of being a Fincherly colourgraded Wild Things for the 2010s… only significantly less fun, and much worse by dint of not knowing it is.
She’s really good in HomecomingI've only seen her in this and Moonlight and she's bland in both.
My wife noticed that too.Thought it was enjoyable, good fun, like the first one. Johnson is a very good and clever filmmaker, but his films do tend to have some strange plot holes that you'd think he would've managed to iron out or explain.
I did spot that Norton handed Bautista his drink (and that he didn't simply pick up the wrong one) immediately though, and I'm assuming I'm not alone in that?
worth watching just for her. sheesh!Madelyne Cline btw
