However, a film as slyly entertaining as “Knives Out” is too hard to resist, even for the haters. It’s a great whodunit, even though we already know who did it at the start. The cast Johnson has assembled for “Knives Out” is also impressive; Chris Evans, Daniel Crag, Jamie Lee Curtis, Don Johnson, Ana de Armas, Toni Collette, Michael Shannon, Lakeith Stanfield and Christopher Plummer. The official synopsis reads like an Agatha Christie novella: “Wealthy crime novelist Harlan Thrombrey invites his extended dysfunctional family to his mansion on his 85th birthday in hopes of reuniting them all. However, during the birthday party, Harlan is found dead and Detective Benoit Blanc is called to investigate the case. Soon enough, everyone in the family becomes a suspect.” “Knives Out” is scheduled for release on November 27, 2019, but it did premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival last week where I had some praise-worthy words to say about Johnson’s entertaining movie.
