I figured it out less than halfway into the movie. Good movie still, I don't think it really took away from the viewing experience, but I don't think Rian really nailed down the "whodunit" aspect.

Yeah, the script was bad. I enjoyed it though because Daniel Craig was fantastic.

It wasn't a whodunit, it was a howdunit

Daniel Craigs accent was terrible. Kevin Spacey did a much better job with that accent.

It was terrible. But it was amazing.

Literally advertising it as a whodunit in the trailer.

I liked it. I was expecting a fun ride, and that's what I got.

These types of movies, you gotta go in not caring what the twist is, or trying to figure it out. It's a genre that's hard to make something new out of, imo.

Pretty sure that was the point. Regardless, it was a fun, enjoyable movie.

I enjoyed it, but will admit I didn't figure it all out or who did it. I had a few pieces, but not the whole picture.

Me neither, but I occasionally have my moments. I remember once my family was watching CSI, I wasn't. It was an episode about a Furry being found dead by the side of the road in the desert. I happened to come through the living room early on and stopped for a second. I just mused that I bet someone mistook him for a Wolf or a Coyote and shot him. I was right on the money, it just seemed so obvious.

Yeah I figured it out early too, but it was a fun watch, seeing the movie try to throw me off.
