Glass Onion: I was a slightly reluctant viewer of this as I didn't take to the first one the way everyone else did. The Agatha Christie format is not one I'm particularly fond of. GO is also 2 and a half hours long so it requires committment.
Glad I did though. Daniel Craig is much more at the centre of this one and the film is a lot better for it. I can't think of many actors less likely to carry a film with a quirky, quietly comedic performance but Craig is surprisingly grand in the role. Picks this film up and carries it, even does some cutesy physical comedy that couldn't seem more out of character. All of a sudden I rate him as an actor.
I eventually found the plot a bit tiresome but I suspect those with a fondness for the form will find this one a new favourite. Good stuff.
