Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery

This was so good! All of these knives out films have a stacked cast but this one felt different. This had a sense that it didn’t have to live up to the big actors in the film and got to shine on its own as a whole story. The lighting and cinematography felt the best out of the series. So many twists and turns like the others, loved the small town and church setting for this one. This just felt different from the others. I need more knives out films, Benoit Blanc is the best detective!

I never thought that I would see Hawkeye kill Thanos then Sandman over an expensive jewel that Cruella de Vil told him about. On a more serious note I thought it was just as good as the previous movies but it seemed a little long but I don’t know how they could shorten it. It felt like a classic knives out movie with a the reveals and twists.

Love the knives out seriesss. Though I was a bit uninterested in the beginning bcos I felt like it didn’t have that “knives out” vibe but as it got to the middle, I started to like it as its own story. This felt more deeper compared to the first two movies and I love that. (1/2)

I wasn’t a huge fan of this film initially, it played with some dark themes of murder, pride, and dangerous leadership.
But the ending was really good and turned around to themes of grace and humanity.
A film review from “Cinema Therapy” opened my eyes to the brilliance of it.

Something makes the original a little better to me maybe it’s just nostalgia but regardless it still is number one in the trilogy. That being said this is an very close second. This was a phenomenal movie that was entertaining and provides a interesting perspective on the church.

Really a fascinating web of deceit
