Knives out more like Knives in

4 stars

07 Jun 2023

Class detective film set in the US. knives out is simple yet harder than a typical detective film such as Poirot or miss Marple. This movie is great for most as it contains many plot twists and is very exciting. This movie is directed by Rian Johnson.

Knives out is a murder mystery and the setting clearly shows that. The house looks like a dark and gloomy haunted house, this setting also includes fog and mist the house grounds also contains barking dogs. By doing this the film creates a sense of horror and fright in the atmosphere witch will create tension.

Knives out contains many camera angles which shows authority threw the characters, they do the by the position of the camera with the main members of the family and the main characters getting an under shot so the viewer looks up to them whilst the less important members get a more wide shot which shows how they bring in more surroundings to show how they may not be as important.
