Saw a special preview screening of this last night and highly recommend it. Fun, Clue style whodunit (it even gets referenced a couple times) that's cleverly written and directed with an incredible cast. It's good to see that post Star Wars, Rian Johnson is going to be just fine.

I'd been hoping to go see it with the wife since we saw the trailer, and your recommendation only reinforces that.

Another anticipated film for me. I enjoy a great whodunit type of story with clues, thinking outside of the box, and constantly guessing as to who had a hand in the murder mystery. Can't wait to check this out.

I will say this one is a little different as they flat out tell you whodunit early on. Sorta. Haha. I can't say more.

I saw the ads for this on TV and Iw as interested
I saw the trailer for Knives Out when I saw Dr. Sleep last week and now I'm probably going to see this in the theater instead of waiting to get it on bluray as I planned

When does it officially come out? Thanksgiving?
Been looking forward to it since I saw the first trailer.

Yeah I think Thanksgiving is the official release date. It was just showing here at one theater this weekend as a special preview deal. If ya'll have an AMC close to you, you might see if they have an early showing.

I think Rian Johnson is my new favorite film maker.
Holy crap, this movie was amazing!

A bit disappointed, but it was still really solid. I kept expecting it to be more clever than it actually was. {Spoiler}fun fact: those two drugs have 0 difference, contrary to the story they spin.

Just got back from seeing this and it was good. Took my 11 year old cousin with me, thinking it might of had a few more laughs for some reason and to my shock she really liked it. I think the ending was fun.

PushingUpRoses gave it a thumbs up, and she's a big mystery fan, so that's a pretty ringing endorsement for me, definitely wanna see it.

As great as Evans has been as Steve Rogers, this movie is a nice reminder that he's always been fantastic playing smug, entitled douchebags.

When I watched the trailer for "21 Bridges" all I could think was "Man, Chadwick you should've stayed in Wakanda where it's safe." They're literally attached to those roles forever.

I really would not mind if they franchise this as like, The Benoit Blanc Mysteries and follow him getting hired and solving mysteries.

It's not the type of movie I would normally watch, but it has such a great looking cast that I'll definitely be checking it out when it's available for streaming.

PLOT IMPORTANT ITEMS MENTIONED BELOW I'm a mystery snob, and while I could guess the villain pretty well, I thought one of the clues was not played up enough: {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}The viscosity difference of the two medicines just wasn't clear enough for anyone to pick up on, I think. I somehow didn't pick up on the main clue of {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}the dogs barking. I was watching specifically to see who the dogs were barking at, and I just did not interpret their behavior as barking at Captain America. Everyone I was seeing the movie with disagreed, though.

Like the 3 times she heard the stairs did not include going back up after grabbing a snack. Which would've implied that he never went back up if the stairs creak every time. There were enough weird inconsistencies to begin with that made me think the cops investigating the case might have been on the take to begin with.
