Douban scored 8.5 points! The annual brain-burning suspense film "Knives Out" is scheduled to be released in mainland China

The brain-burning suspense film "Knives Out" starring Daniel Craig and Captain America Chris Evans is scheduled to be released in mainland China on November 29. The film is directed by Rian Johnson, the director of "Star Wars 8" and "Looper", and has a Douban score of 8.5 points. The film has received great reviews at the previous Toronto Film Festival and London Film Festival, and was once hailed as the "best suspense film of the year."

"Knives Out" mainly tells a suspense case caused by the suicide of a billionaire. Detective Blanco, played by Daniel Craig, is caught up in a ridiculous battle for the distribution of billions of inheritance during the investigation. As the case goes deeper, he finds that every family member is a suspect...

"Knives Out" has made subversive innovations based on the classic detective genre of Agatha Christie, and at the same time integrated it with the current social background to create a new-style suspense story with a unique perspective. Using the shell of a detective film, it sharply explores many of the current hot social topics such as immigration, class, wealth, distribution mechanism, the gap between the rich and the poor, etc., which is thought-provoking.

Director Rian Johnson has been conceiving the story for more than ten years. What he really wants to highlight is the "flaws" in American families, and the root of the bizarre murders is the weakness of human nature. This is also the reason why "Knives Out" is different from other suspense movies, triggering real heated discussions and resonance among the audience.
