The Plotaholics Podcast: Movie Reviews

Glass Onion

January 10, 2023 • Shane Wilson and Bryan Tann • Episode 187

January is going strong Plotaholics fans! This week we dive into one of our new favorite franchises' next entry in the 2022 Rian Johnson-written and directed murder/mystery Glass Onion.

Glass Onion sees the return of Daniel Craig's Benoit Blanc, master detective, as he investigates a murder on the privately owned island of billionaire Miles Bron (played masterfully by Edward Norton).

During the pandemic, Bron is on the cusp of a brilliant new form of energy. Before unleashing his latest discovery, he decides to have a little get-together with his old friends that include Duke (Dave Bautista), Birdy (Kate Hudson), Lionel (Leslie Odom, Jr.), Claire (Katheryn Hahn), and outsider Andi (Janelle Monae).

SPOILER ALERT!

If you haven't seen this film yet, go to Netflix and check it out, and then sit back and relax and listen to our review of Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery.
