Halfway through, Rizzo needed to take his sweater off and Benji wanted to guess the ending on record without ruining it for Rizzo. We paused the film but brought his theory to the beginning because we still wanted y'all to have our commentary reaction UNCUT in case Patreon should ever ask us to remove the film (this is why we've been including start points recently and haven't been pausing despite the fact that we provide the films/shows to watch).

Also check out our 2022 reaction to Glass Onion by clicking on the collection below. Should we rewatch Knives Out for our channel? Let us know!

I work at a Somali middle school in Minneapolis...and schools canceled due to safety concerns so I've been distracting myself with some of my favorite reactors. Literally just watched your reaction to glass onion on YouTube when I see this...thanks for your help today.

OMG I just noticed... "Laid to rest in the tomb of his father". Blanc casually dropping that Wicks is the child of Grace and Prentice... Poor girl. Also Jud straight up told Cy where his inheritance is so I don't know what the problem is. Love this movie. But Rizzo, I don't really understand what you mean by actually expecting it to be impossible? Of course it's not. I don't think they're ever trying to set that up. The entire movie is about telling stories, forming a narrative that inform our morals and motives. Benoit is interested in the impossible crime not because he actually believes it's impossible, but because of the narrative. And the narrative was the key to solving it. Also, I don't even know how you could have an audience expect a crime to be impossible unless you want them to expect an actual miracle. I do agree with this take regarding the glass onion though. I think that was pretty easily the weakest of the 3 movies.

I really liked this film because it felt slightly different than the other two. we really got to dive deep into other characters that really foil Benoit! it felt so cozy and rewarding for my spirit almost? seeing the two sides of how people think about religion, especially Christianity is cool. i did really want more of benoit and the cast. i think a little more of them could make the mystery more confusing but i still think it works (: i completely see what you’re saying at the end rizzo!

I've come around to LOVING this movie now (it made it in my top 10 of 2025) but I think I was trying to say the film wanted us to be more convinced of the crime being impossible than I actually was convinced! However, I don't even CARE anymore because I fucking LOVE this film!

I'll awkwardly admit to thinking maybe there was magic lol

ScoobyDoobyDoouuhhghhh

Should do the first one! Also in the second it showed his husband! The first one also had the musical in the car gag and the second had cameo’s of Stephen Sondheim and Angela Lansbury playing themselves in the beginning as his friend while playing Among Us!

I too couldn't quite place where I recognized the actor playing Cy - turns out it was from Good Luck to You, Leo Grande - have you seen that? He plays the titular character, alongside the always excellent Emma Thompson. Oh, and, I'm also intrigued as to why you didn't believe it to be a sufficiently "impossible" crime - surely that would mean you easily knew how it was done (which I don't think is the case)? Obviously it has to be possible (in the end), and it probably wouldn't involve knife-throwing robots (!), but I think the true culprit and motive here were sufficiently twisty/turny for a decent mystery, right? Have you ever seen Jonathan Creek? British murder mystery series that started in the late 90s. I loved it. The USP of the show was the impossible (often locked door) crime each week - the detective was a magician's assistant by trade, so knew all the "tricks" and always managed to figure out that it was never in fact anything mystical or magical. Just often quite elaborate (which I suppose is also the secret of most magic).

after rewatching I LOVE this movie even more, but I stand by my initial criticism that the film was TELLING me it was impossible more than it made me FEEL it was impossible. So while no, I had not guessed the ending, that didn't leave me as stumped as the filmmakers wanted me feel. Rather, I was more just waiting for the reveal instead of NEEDING or DREADING it! Again, love the movie, but maybe because it takes place in 2025 I never once doubted there was a fancy answer for the impossible question.

flechesbleues

Fair enough. To be honest, I didn't particularly love this movie myself! I think because it isn't as outwardly funny as the other two, which is nothing to do with the mystery. I get the impression that there are probably references to the mystery novels they mention (the Hollow Man in particular), which I haven't read, so maybe that's part of the reason it didn't quite click for me too. I was about to say it's also probably because all the characters are awful, but then remembered that that is also true of the first two films! Perhaps it's just that they're also all sad. I don't know. I watched it with my teenage nephew the day after Christmas and neither of us quite knew what to make of it! I immediately knew I'd need to sit with it for a bit (and rewatch) before making a final conclusion, though.

The original is still the best, but I like this one a bit better than Glass Onion.

I think the IPhone rule is for Apple TV movies. Not sure if they can really force it for other platforms, as long as the movie/show doesn’t specifically say it’s an IPhone.

I love revisiting Benoit blancs speech in the church when asked if he’s religious and the room goes dark. In his take down of the church and religion, he essentially explains the plot of the movie. He even says he wants to get to the real core of the myth / mystery as being a form of truth that he can “get to without choking” - like eves apple! I’ve really loved the way they subtly foreshadowed core moments in these films, whether it’s the Mona Lisa line or not being able to identify a prop knife to a real one. It’s fun writing and I really enjoyed it. I really loved this and found it surprisingly touching. My only qualm and I’m not a film maker but I wish we they had held the shot of Grace in tears at the end for just a little bit longer to let us really take in her anguish and despair before Martha let’s go of her hatred of her.

Me too, it was a really beautiful moment!

As someone who loathed the first movie, I absolutely LOVE this film! The themes and messages are crafted excellently. For example, Blanc is doing exactly what Wicks does! Giving a sermon to shame and prey on the guilt of a member of his church and we as viewers are entertained and excited to “scratch that itch deep down” of someone “worse” than us being punished. Then he has a Damascus moment (like Jud) and realizes he is making it about himself and his own satisfaction of winning his game (like Jud admitted). Instead, he stops what he’s doing to help someone (like Jud on the phone). Even his enemy (Jud giving the chance to repent he was given). Honestly, I don’t care about the mystery at all because the entire movie is telling you how it’s not important and solving it helps no one.

please rewatch the first movie with us!! <3

psspsspss

I think a lovely detail is that Jud renames the church after he takes over, from Our Lady of Perpetual Fortitude to Our Lady of Perpetual Grace

Oh my gosh YES please rewatch Knives Out!! 😍 I love that Rizzo said “okay dad” at 1:32:22 because I LOVE to think of Blanc as all the leads’ father in their own little sleuthing family. I hope KO4 has ALL of them together!!

Rian Johnson specifically said in an interview about the first Knives Out that villains can't have an iPhone, apple refuses for license them for those characters. However, he seems to have gotten around it here by us not actually seeing the murderer use it, we just see it ringing on the floor. He knew after he revealed that titbit publily people would look for it and so he used it as a form of misdirection in this film.

Harrison

I was personally disappointed with this film and its my least favourite of the three. Its an objectively good film and whodunnit but it lacked the fun vibe of the previous two films, which is what I want from Knives Out. I can watch any decent whodunnit for the other stuff. Also, something I feel shouldn't bother me but really does, it was clear from me watching this that Rian Johnson's background was evangelical, not Catholic (which he has confirmed) and he doesn't know much about Catholic mass. There are undoubtedly assholes in the Catholic church, probably even somd that hold similar beliefs to Monsignor Wick, but the kind of preaching shown here is not the way any Catholic priest would deliver a homily. Catholic priests just don't preach like that. As a lapsed Catholic it really didn't feel believable to me, even for a priest who was somewhat unorthodox. The only reason he was Catholic was so Johnson could have Martha tell him about the gem in confession, and for that the church had to be a Catholic one, but he didn't do a good job of making it believable Catholic

Harrison

He has an iphone but we never saw him use it, just it ringing and not being answered. I think Rian Johnson used that fact as a workaround for licensing, so that he could intentionally misdirected the audience

not started reaction yet but read description and yes should definitely rewatch knives out for the channel be interesting for you to see what pick up on a rewatch

Nothing beats the first Knives Out for me so far. I still enjoyed this a lot and I sure hope there will be a KO4 for sure. I like that Jud kinda trolls Cy at the end by saying his inheritance is in Christ now cuz that's literally where he put it LOL. I'll admit it took me several pauses to get through the first half of this film because I just find Wicks to be an abhorrent character. It got a lot better after he died and we finally got Blanc on screen.

Aroha

Love your thoughts on this one, and i'm being pedantic but we actually found out Benoit liked musicals in the first movie, when he's sitting in the car he sings a song from Follies (1971) So that's a fun little thing I like knowing about him.
