The set up takes too long (and bizarrely, focuses way too much on characters that don't seem to hold much relevance once the murder occurs?)
Once the murder does happen (60 mins in) it's a different film, and vastly superior.
However it is worth noting that Gal Gadot is incredibly bad, and woefully miscast. The rest of the cast really carry her, and Armie Hammer's weak performances.
Surprising - Emma Mackey in a star turn (a fine performance in a difficult role) and Russell Brand(!?) playing a pleasantly understated role, magnificently.
Kenneth, always good.
Please Hollywood keep making these movies (+ knives out) - can't stand marvel - this actually gets me to the cinema and excited again :)
