Hideo Kojima watched Knives Out 3, but he didn't have much to say about the new Netflix movie – so fans are wondering if he hated it
Hideo Kojima had a very brief review of Wake Up Dead Man
Hideo Kojima has now watched Wake Up Dead Man, AKA Knives Out 3, but his review of few words has fans thinking he didn't enjoy it.
"Tonight, I watched the third installment of Rian Johnson’s Knives Out series, 'Knives Out: Wake Up Dead Man,'" he wrote on Twitter.
Kojima is known for waxing poetic about the films he watches, so his briefer movie write-ups have become synonymous with bad reviews. By contrast, his review of Stephen King adaptation The Long Walk, which he posted last week, clocks in at 219 words.
"Dang. I didn't expect him not to like this one. I thought it was fun," someone replied. "Oof," wrote someone else.
The movie has a near-perfect score of 92% on Rotten Tomatoes, with our own Wake Up Dead Man review giving the film four stars and praising Josh O'Connor's performance and the character development of Daniel Craig's detective Benoit Blanc.
O'Connor plays Jud, a priest trying to redeem his dark past who's sent to a small parish in upstate New York after an act of violence against a fellow clergyman. He's now in the domain of the charismatic and controversial Monsignor Jefferson Wicks, played by Josh Brolin, and the pair don't see eye to eye – until Wicks drops dead mid-service. The list of suspects is played by an ensemble cast that includes Glenn Close, Andrew Scott, Jeremy Renner, Kerry Washington, and Cailee Spaeny.
Wake Up Dead Man is streaming now on Netflix. For more on what to watch, check out our guide to the other best movies on Netflix.
