Johnson F A hat tip to Agatha Christie's masterpieces of mystery and tongue-in-cheek inspired by her murder mystery play Mousetrap, this whodunnit ensemble comedy set in a fictional play production delivers barrels after barrels of laughs and whimsical machinations. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/28/23 Full Review carol r Please ignore this review. I saw the other See How They Run film. I would delete this if I could figure out how to delete it. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member The characters develop throughout and reveal new facades while letting us in on what they go through... It left me with a thought that, "Love is unconventional. It can't survive if it is tied down in conventions." Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Ce film est un de ceux qu'il faut voir pour apprécier. Les acteurs font tous jeu de tout feu, c'est merveilleux. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Witty and so, so French. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member C'est amusant et intelligent. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
