I do not wish to spoil your viewing by giving away the plot. However, during the pandemic the billionaire Miles Bron holds a murder mystery game at his home, the Glass Onion, which is located on his private island in Greece. He invites several friends and the renowned detective Benoit Blanc. And from there the intricate plot with beautiful cinematography unfolds!
Owen Gleiberman of Variety said of Glass Onion that it is “a bigger, showier, even more elaborately multi-faceted shell-game mystery” than the first film.
