    Interesting material, but oh so boring

    I remember going to the theater with my closest friends to watch Clue. We all agreed that it was a a good movie but we wanted more. We thought it could have been better. The cast was superb.

    But, this documentary ...while it does give interesting information about the making of the movie, it was presented in such a boring manner that I quickly find myself falling asleep. The interviews were at times very long and lacking in depth and substance.

    Although this documentary was made in 2022, the quality is so low it looks and sounds like it is from the 80's. I understand it might be the director's first project, and yeah...it shows.

    I got up to grab a snack and hit pause. When I noticed it wasn't even halfway through, I decided to cut my losses and switch to something else.

    Fun lightweight retrospective.

    Cool retrospective on a movie that's nearly 40 years old. I used to watch the movie on VHS a lot as a kid so this documentary has some cool info on this comedy gem (I'd taped it off the telly with Louis Malle's Crackers on the same 3 hour tape way back in the late eighties). Most of the cast and crew get to reminse and offer some geek trivia. I'll admit the movie is flawed from the fact that you can't guess the killer as there were 3 endings. But as a comedy it works. This documentary digs deep into the production and is a cool addition for fans of the movie. Definitely a passion project and that comes through in the feature. Lots of clips and cool film connections from the cast and crew. A nice companion to the movie.

    For Die Hard Cult Fans Only

    This is a well-made and comprehensive look at the cult classic Clue: The Movie (1985) which has been my favorite movie since I was a kid. And they talk about that, calling Clue a "babysitter movie" and how one actor showed it to his own kids on VHS, along with showcasing the younger adults who have elevated Clue from a box office bomb that generated a post-theater following to a real cult film.

    It's a good doc but not great, probably because this documentary didn't get made until 2022 since several participants ranging from actors to producers have long since passed away. This production probably should have been made around 2005 and yet there's the longer view and additional information in retrospect that supports the main interviews.

    Very disappointing.

    I wanted to love this so much but just couldn't. There are very few of the main cast actually being spoken to and a huge chunk of the documentary is just videos from conventions or interviews with people who had absolutely nothing to do with the movie.

    Yes unfortunately some of the cast are no longer with us and that is very sad as obviously there is no way to interview them or get their input.

    Clearly most of the people who are however just simply didn't want to be involved in this which is unfortunate also.

    You may find out some information you didn't previously know but it will be very little.

    I'd recommend just watching the movie and pretend that this isn't even a thing.

    Really lovely

    Look, if you LOVE Clue this is a lovely cozy documentary. It's not perfect, but it's very charming. I wish the director had less bits about themselves, and had more polish; but they managed to capture some real gems in honor of the people who made Clue.

    I really enjoyed hearing so much from the director, and I loved hearing about who they considered to play the roles originally. I also thought there was good tea about the Hollywood system; and I feel like the director hit every part of what goes into making a movie.

    I really love the movie Clue and it's clear the director does as well! Lovely.
