I hadn't heard of this and randomly picked it on Paramount+ because of Bryan Cranston. It was a pleasant surprise, moreso the wholesome true story than the film itself, but a feel good story nonetheless. Sort of a cosmic balance to Walter White.

The funniest parts were in the trailers, but sometimes that's the way it goes. Bonus points for the Night at the Museum moment.

Other than the basic premise, the rest wasn't what I expected at all. I had seen it described as a horror film a few times, and while I can see horror elements, I don't think it truly got there.

This would be a stronger movie if it was just the story of Anya Taylor-Joy's character in the sixties trying to become a single or Thomasin McKenzie's character coping with her mother's suicide by pursuing fashion in London. I liked both halves enough to give this 3.5 stars and say it's worth a watch every few years, but squishing the stories together was a little messy.

Usually I would think exceeding two hours is the wrong move for a comedy. Glass Onion is enough fun that you don't really notice. Dave Bautista proves he can be more than Drax and can hold his own outside of the MCU. Overall I prefer the story of Knives Out, but it's pretty close.

Donald Pleasence is having an absolute ball in this one, as he should! This is a fun one!
A cannibal, descending from trapped tunnel workers from the 1890’s, roams the London Underground for food!
Some odd bits here and there, but worth it for Pleasence.
