DanielMost of my friends who saw Glass Onion hated it. I find it so interesting how intense the negative reactions to RJ's movies can be. I had a great time with it.
FilmWonkI liked Glass Onion a lot (not quite as much as Knives Out), but I think I grok the good-faith ire that a lot of people have for RJ's scripts. They have a kind of audacity both linguistically and structurally which challenges suspension of disbelief, in my experience. You just kinda have to decide you're on board with his brand of fantastical caper early on...or not.
"The Brothers Bloom" (a film I liked but didn't love) probably strained my patience the most in this regard.
(I grappled with this exact internal debate a few years ago writing a ten-year retrospective on The Brothers Bloom, if that's of any interest)
