This late 2021 release is now available on Netflix, having missed out on seeing at the cinema. Clearly the success of the first version has led to a bigger budget seemingly spent on special effects, since apart from Daniel Craig and Edward Norton it has avoided the cast of well known stars seen in the first film. Looking like a take on “Death on the Nile” but land based on a luxury Greek island, it seems to owe a lot to Elon Musks’s history (based on my recent viewing of the 3 part BBC documentary of the man). For me the whole storyline heavily reliant on a flashback plot is just a bit too cute for its own good. Norton and Craig despite both looking like they spent too long on the sun bed ham it up marvellously. I think this movie franchise is going to have to be much more creative if they are planning to do a third version but as Xmas family entertainment as you watch together and follow the reveals and plot twists, I suspect it can’t be beat! |
