Consistent characterisation and I feel like nothing vaguely significant was ever referenced or used without being of some relevance further down the line. Also I think Rian Johnson does a really good job of taking established genres/styles and turning them on their head in cool ways <cite>Malfunction posted [p:930911255] in Knives Out...

Malfunction 11/30/19 1:14:29 PM #5:	I don't wanna spoil stuff but I like how (a) there is a really good heart to the core of the film and (b) there is some not so subtle political/social commentary going on too, which I'm glad was Johnson included as it would've been very easy to avoid entirely after all the TLJ vitriol <cite>Malfunction posted [p:930911714] in Knives Out...
