A family affair where a whole lot of bad blood and unresolved grudges rise to the surface, the all-star cast boasts Toni Collette, Don Johnson and Chris Evans (privileged family members each with their own secrets and axes to grind) as well as a career-best performance from Jamie Lee Curtis, and Daniel Craig giving a standout performance as debonair detective Benoit Blanc.

You'll be kept on the edge of your seat trying to predict the outcome of director/writer Rihan Johnson's suspenseful whodunit, which focuses on a disgustingly rich and leechy family who fight to keep their birthright inheritance within the walls of their massive house.

Like a massive game of Cluedo with multiple suspects, each with their own motive (mostly financial), it makes for a suspenseful two hours and ten minutes - at no point does the gradually unravelling story become boring.

It could also be interpreted as a piece of social satire that lays bare the wealth divide; more relatives turn up for the will reading than those who attend the funeral: that'll give you a slight idea of the kinds of caricatures we're talking about.

It's a film that constantly keeps the audience guessing as to who is the killer and, just when you think you've worked it out, another spanner is thrown in the works.
