I was surprised at how much I liked this! I originally thought it looked tacky on the trailer, and only watched it for David Harbour & John Leguizamo. I dragged my two teen sons along with me for some company. I actually really surprised at at what it delivered!
There is enough of a story line to keep the movie going at a decent pace, and the killing and gore seem on the trailer doesn't drag out during the whole move, but is in context with the action-packed parts. It also delivers some really good comedy that doesn't seem forced or cheap, it genuinely made me laugh so much.
"Bertrude" - perfect 😂 I'm calling my youngest that now 😂
Squeamish and gory? Sure, though it's fast paced and short lived for the most part. But if that's not your thing, then avoid this movie.
Not much more to be said, if you can take it for what it is, it's a really really good movie. I will be adding it to my list of Xmas movies to watch every year.

I love the Miss Fisher TV series. I binge watched it. I found it quirky, whimsical and refreshing. With the TV show, I find it a different kind of suspense as to "whodunnit"
Whilst the movie tried to incorporate all the above, and they were present, they didn't feel the same. It all felt forced.
Was it because the actors felt pressure to deliver a product for a larger, more global demographic? Was it because it was set in so many locations? The whole "global" storyline just feels like it's been done to death in previous movies, especially revolving around Middle Eastern lore & curses. it almost had an Indiana Jones feel to it.
To me, the whole movie felt a bit garbled and rushed. You couldn't really relate to, or immerse yourself, with what was being shown. I just found it didn't feel "true" to the Miss Fisher TV style, even though all the attributes were present.
I liked the movie, probably because of the nostalgia of loving the original characters from the TV show, but I definitely wouldn't be in a hurry to watch it again.
