I am curious as to the 6.5 rating for this movie. The start wasn't that great but by halfway through, i have laughed and screamed already.
It is a mystery, with humor. The sidekick cracked me up, the mystery got me glued, and the gruesomeness is left foe the viewers to imagine so it is toned down.
It is well balanced comedy, suspense and mystery.
I enjoyed it and I hope you will give it a chance.
I am not familiar with the artists here but they all worked harmoniously in portraying their characters. Production did marvelous with the 1920-1930s set and props. The wardobe is fitting the era. And although it is a bit bland, it worked well for the scenes.
I urge you to watch while end credit is running.
The ending will be nothing you would expect. There will be scenes while credit is running.

Also, this is the sequel to The Great Illusion movie. You might want to watch that too.

Rewatch value - if I get invited by friends to watch it again or if i recommend this for weekend night movie, I definitely wont hesitate to watch it again..

My opinion, this is a pretty good movie to watch alone or with group of friends.
I watched this IN iQIYI. I AM A PAID SUBSCRIBER BUT IT IS UNDER FREE MOVIES.
