This week the Janssen siblings and Anthony take the BORED out of BOARD game, by looking at not only the witty ensemble comedy 'Clue' but also 'Knives Out', last year's whodunnit hit that acts as a loving homage of 'Clue' and other retro murder mysteries. Both movies feature a murderer's row (literally!!! lmao!!!) of acting talent, and are set in big ol shambling aristocratic family homes, but is the central murder mystery at the heart of each film satisfying, or just a big stinky pile of red herrings?
The gang puts on their lil deerstalker caps and comically oversized magnifying glasses to get to the bottom of both winding whodunnits, fully investigating Daniel Craig's so-so accent work and 'Clue''s most quotable Miss White moments. if ur Marta from 'Knives Out' be careful not to puke while listening cos this ep is SICKENING
