Murder Mystery 2

Adam is still going strong in all facets of his career and actually getting a bit of long deserved recognition of late (Mark Twain Award). His comedy is universally loved even in the most basic of regurgitated Hollywood plots. This is another case of that. This builds more on the action side of the couple's escapades but delivers in the standard laughs ten fold. Anniston proves once again she is a terrific match for an on screen love interest for Sandler. Their chemistry is never missing a beat. The story becomes just a backdrop for their antics to shine. While some of the forced modern rhetoric is grating at times, the film is a solid comedy. Know what you're getting and it's a fun time.

Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler are back - with more slapstick, comedy, and even crazier scenes.

They are again the Spitzes, this time officially detectives, who run into murder and mayhem wherever they turn.

Four years after Murder Mystery 1, Nick and Audrey are invited to When they're invited to celebrate the wedding of their friend The Maharajah (Adeel Akhtar) on his island. He is kidnapped, and everyone becomes a suspect.

The movie sports a good supporting cast - Mark Strong, The plot of the film is good enough and so are the characters, especially Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston, who are always great together, along with the supporting cast: Miller (Mark Strong), Melanie Laurent, Jodie Turner-Smith, John Kani, Kuhoo Vermal, Dany Boon, Enrique Arce, Jillian Bell, and Tony Goldwyn.

The story takes us to Paris - the scenery is fantastic. The Spitzes and the predicaments they get into are hilarious.

This is light fun, enjoyable, with some laugh out loud moments.

Movie was a solid fun watch, but for me there was just some things I did not like. To start the movie is very similar to the first one, doesnt feel like they tried to change anything except locations. The pacing of the movie was also very fast, everything just happened so fast it feels like you hardly get anytime to process what just happened. My last complaint is that there is plot points that just did not need to be added at all, like the story would have been fine to not add them, I am not gonna spoil anything but you will probably notice. Some positives about the movie was that it was funny, had decent acting, and was a fun watch. Overall I would Recommend.

It would be very easy to attack this movie with many negative adjectives. It's the perfect film for Letterboxd and Film Twitter users to showcase their snobbery and balance their ratings with some negative reviews. After all, this is the kind of movie that is forgotten in a few hours, has little or no subtext, and can easily be watched while doing the dishes or ironing.

However, a movie should be judged according to what it intends to be, and this movie is exactly what it should be: light entertainment that sometimes makes you laugh and doesn't strain your brain. It's an improvement over the first movie in every way: the humour works much better, everything seems much bigger in scale, and the Sandler-Aniston duo has greater chemistry. Adding to this are new characters - our Arturito, as sexist as ever! 🤣 - that fit well into all of this.

This is the typical movie that snobby film critics will never understand when a new sequel is inevitably announced, even if it should be pretty clear: it's honest with its audience.

Like its predecessor, Murder Mystery 2 sets out to provide a breezy diversion and it largely succeeds. It isn't trying to be deep, or meaningful, or even riotously funny. But there's a good-natured charm to the proceedings thanks to the chemistry of the two leads, who manage to remain affable while quipping their way through the predictable plot. The supporting cast are one-note stereotypes (the vapid billionaire, the aggressive playboy, the coldly judgemental aristocrat, etc.) but they're utilized sparingly enough not to wear out their respective welcomes. It's an enjoyable way to turn your brain off for 90 minutes or so.
