4 / 5
Translated from swedish: Is there anything truly groundbreaking about all the built-in jabs at today's influencers, how politics gets sponsored, and how loyalties within a group can shift based on simple and not always so noble motivations? Perhaps not, but the pop culture references, half-insider jokes about the film industry, and sudden cameo appearances become more like seasoning on the mashed potatoes in a plot where the players do what they do best.

3 / 5
Translated from swedish: Johnson understands what made the original so successful: a charismatic master detective, an eclectic bunch of suspects, and a single setting – the game Clue meets Agatha Christie's mysteries with a modern and humorous twist. The same winning formula is used here too, plus a (relatively) well-known cast. What the ensemble lacks in truly big marquee names (no one on the level of Chris Evans here) is made up for with the occasional unannounced cameo. Still, it doesn't work out as well the second time around.

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: Despite a bigger budget and even more stars, the sequel loses some of the simplicity and charm of its predecessor, with the film also being drawn out a bit more than necessary and the special effects not always being convincing. Still, "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery" manages to be a delightful little sea breeze that doesn't take itself too seriously and almost works as a humorous antithesis to Kenneth Branagh's torturous and hopeless Hercule Poirot adventures.

Translated from swedish: "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery" is actually one of the most fun and entertaining releases you can stream this Christmas. Watch it on a dark and stormy night, with a strong eggnog in your glass! 5 solid stars for a film that actually surpasses the original with playful, unpretentious, yet still intelligent fireworks entertainment.
