The movie comes off slight — call it “Plastic Shallot.”

. Called “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery,” the Netflix movie brings back Daniel Craig’s Detective Benoit Blanc and throws him in with an entirely new crew of wealthy eccentrics.Running time: 139 minutes. Rated PG-13. On Netflix Dec. 23.Is it funny? Indubitably, my dear watcher. Johnson, who got an Oscar nod for writing the first film, is a very clever scribe and director. After all, he is the same guy who, much to many “Star Wars” fans’ chagrin, wrung a lot of laughs out of “The Last Jedi.

The actors, therefore, play up their own personalities rather than develop memorable characters. Plainly put, they’re bland.John Wilson/Netflix Kate Hudson plays a ditsy social media firebrand named Birdy , and Dave Bautista is Duke Cody, a loud, gun-toting right-wing internet personality with a bikini-clad girlfriend named Whiskey . Janelle Monáe, meanwhile, is a secretive interloper named Cassandra who everyone seems to hate and has a mysterious past.

Thankfully adding some panache, Blanc, who’s never met any of these people before, is invited along too.
