Watching Murder Mystery is a slog, and I still can't comprehend how the same dude who wrote Zodiac wrote this, and oh, did I mention this movie steals one of its final reveals from Legally Blonde?

It's no Punch-Drunk Love, but it's on the better end of the spectrum when it comes to Sandler's streaming selections.

Aniston and Sandler, paired before in 2011's Just Go With It, relax into their roles as if their only stake in Mystery is to enjoy the free trip to Italy and have fun running down cobblestones.

Every Adam Sandler comedy abides by a trope as hoary as "the butler did it." At some point in the shenanigans, Sandler's schlub has gotta get a chance to prove he's the bravest boy in the world.

The crime? A truly boring movie.

It would be uncomfortably cynical to assume that Sandler thinks these novocaine-like comedies are what common people want to watch, but the guy doesn't leave us much choice.
| Original Score: D | Jun 14, 2019
Still, the movie proves a cheery enough diversion, during a summer movie season leaden with underwhelming blockbuster offerings.

Even grading on a curve, though, Murder Mystery is a tired, bordering on tiresome endeavor -- feeling like the pilot for a not-very-good 온라인카지노추천 show -- as well as a reminder that Netflix's content buffet caters to all kinds of tastes.

Adam Sandler is a genius, sure. But I'd love it if he were to smarten up, too.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 14, 2019
For something that's top of the landing page, thus doesn't even require thumb movement, Murder Mystery is surprisingly entertaining.
| Original Score: 70/100 | Jun 14, 2019
It's just the kind of movie to pop on one night when you're looking for something fun, silly, and a little mysterious.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jun 14, 2019
Just entertaining enough to make you wish it was actually good.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 14, 2019
Capably directed by Kyle Newacheck from a suitably twisty-turny script by James Vanderbilt, it serves its purpose as a lighthearted comedy.

Murder Mystery... isn't going to dispel the longstanding rumor that the Sandman mostly makes movies as an excuse to go on paid vacations, using his Happy Madison production shingle as a personal travel agency
| Original Score: C+ | Jun 14, 2019
Aniston and Sandler have a goofy, relaxed rapport that is often amusing despite the film's best efforts to smother any sign of verve.
| Jun 14, 2019
Aniston, not for the first time, seems more engaged and wide-awake than her material, and you can sense her mental gears grinding away as she tests out bits of business and digs for stray moments of comic gold. None, alas, are forthcoming.

Murder on the Bore-ient Express.

Murder Mystery is a satisfying standout, albeit one that exists in a field with a very low bar.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 14, 2019
