I do think it’s marginally better. The first had a good cast but wasn’t quite glib enough to work as parody or intriguing enough to be suspenseful, though it ended well. The second started well, had an impressive twist and a cast that largely* knew when to wink and when to be dead serious, but it dragged on for too long.
I wish him well next time out, I love and miss good mysteries.
*I don’t think Kate Hudson pulls this off. |
