This review highlights the critically acclaimed mystery film 'Knives Out', directed by Rian Johnson and starring Daniel Craig, as a must-watch on Prime Video. The article explores the film's intriguing plot surrounding the death of a famous author and the investigation led by the brilliant detective Benoit Blanc.
When it comes to exciting cinema, few genres compare to the classic whodunit. Stories of suspense and mystery full of twists and tricks, these movies have entertained audiences for generations, from the golden years of Hollywood to the present day. The streaming service Prime Video is home to many great whodunits, including several Agatha Christie adaptations.
An entertaining whodunit that satirizes modern American class relations through the context of an old-school mystery, Knives Out premiered at the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival, where it received near-universal acclaim. A critical and commercial success, the movie was named one of the year’s best films by the National Board of Review and the American Film Institute.
Gosford Park premiered at the 2001 London Film Festival, where it received critical acclaim. The film went on to gross over $87 million worldwide and received seven Oscar nominations, winning for Best Original Screenplay. Both Helen Mirren and Maggie Smith received nominations for Best Supporting Actress. A little-known fact about the movie: Fellowes’ hit TV series Downton Abbey was originally conceived as a spinoff of Gosford Park.
A fairly faithful adaptation of Christie’s beloved novel with only a few modifications, Evil Under the Sun has received praise from fans and critics. Along with David Suchet and Albert Finney, Ustinov’s take on Poirot is among the most beloved versions of the legendary sleuth. The film itself is quite entertaining, featuring excellent performances from Jane Birkin, Maggie Smith, and more. If a classic Poirot mystery is what you’re looking for, then this is the movie for you.
