A delightful romantic comedy with some great character actors who really shine. Anniston and Sandler have wonderful chemistry together and it is the first enjoyable film from Happy Maddison that I’ve seen in a very long time.

It's almost up to the same level of quality that once saw the comedian dominating the box-office back in the day. The production values and concept are on point. It just needed better jokes. Not that it isn't funny. Sandler and Aniston's chemistry ensure that things remain amusing throughout. They're just never hilarious enough to elevate the movie above anything more than the kind of easy watching time passer that Netflix regularly churns out. Expand

This is by far the worst movie of 2019. Sometimes movies are funny just because they reach a very low level intentionally. Unfortunately this one is so boring that you will sleep before enjoying its unintentional mediocrity.

One of the most nuanced example set for women empowerment, Sandman has got what these big banners would kill to have for; Aniston will solve it, though.

Murder Mystery

I try and always give credit to the creators or directors at first, before I start on saying something about the film. But over the years, with plenty of films and other appearances on stages or shows, the Sandman- as Sandler claims himself to be- has remain Sandman all the way through, untouched and unfiltered with only a couple of exceptions. And just like all of them, this one too is a Sandler film. With that same unorthodox method and repetitive familiar jokes and goofy flirty language, the film suffers the same consequences. My brother is a huge fan of his and over the years we have had our fair share of debates.

And what this has accounted with, is material against procedure. Adam Sandler is an amazing comedian, and so is his comic timing in his films. But the film, no matter of comedy genre, cannot simply run on gags. The film defines, asks, it to be a collaboration of simply good work from all accounts. Whether it be execution or narration. The goofiness is tolerating, in fact, it is encouraged in a world like such. But the lack of concentration on the state and vocab and command over the characters is never negotiable.

My brother often turns down the discussion by announcing it as an escape route from the real world- as any fan would- that has been bugging you for an entire week. But is it really enchanting or engaging enough to get lost? Even an amateur film buff finds it hard to swallow these clunk of rocks, set and told, as the final polished product. So where does this project in Sandler's catalogue lies? Murder Mystery is not his finest or most ambitious work of all but it certainly shines the Sandman label clear and bright with gorgeous locations and his middle age crisis.

It has all the Adam Sandler quirks that you are accustomed to, but with more subtlety and sophistication and ofcourse some are borderline absurdity, but thats what we like about Adam Sandler style of humor. The pair up with Jennifer Aniston turned out to be perfect, as Jennifer is a queen of sitcom comedy herself, you can see that she immersed herself perfectly in the comedy world of Adam Sandler. The rest of the cast were quite engaging and by the end of the movie, you wish this could be a franchise and longing for a part 2 ! Expand

First of all i'm pretty sure you're not suppose to get off your seats, even if you wanted earplugs. Second of all what type of famous or rich person befriends a cop and his wife of 15 years. It was also pretty unwatchable for me if it includes a scene that's too embarrassing for me to watch (like the scene were Malcolm who asks "who are you?") also it was pretty predictable. I predicted that fact that other people die in this movie, but on the other note, the movie was pretty decent although half bad. i'll give this a 6 out of 10 Expand

(usually bantering between the two leads, which also worked well in "Just go with It".) If you like Adam Sandler movies you will almost for sure like this movie. I liked it a lot, and enjoyed the silly humor as usual, with a slightly different side plot of mystery and suspense, which kept you guessing as...to who did it..and who did what...

Well done comedy, and an enjoyable watch.

The premise of this whole film felt like it would have worked in 80s and 90s comedies, however just doesn't cut it in the 21st century. Though the idea was interesting, the bickering American couple trope is so cliche.

The Story is similar to "Murder on the Orient Express" but in a funny way, most jokes were stupid thus the performance was same.

It's just the kind of movie to turn on one night when you're looking for something fun, silly, and a little mysterious.

It has been fruitful after all with the exception of Hotel Transylvania 3 all the actor's latest films have been in the streaming service including ''The Meyerowitz Stories''; The only film in which he did a good job since ''Reign Over Me''

But honestly after all this time it's pointless to call most of his work disappointing. He knows what he sells and the audience consumes it, so anything else I could mention about that it's just irrelevant.

This new film simply follows the comedic formula of everything he does and I've gotta say it because frankly I'm not a fan of his work and maybe for Netflix and for him this will be considered a success, I really don't know but for me it's a another boring film and another forgettable film for Netflix's catalog and for the actor's career.

Jennifer Aniston? I guess she was there for the paycheck and because he's her friend. Other than that there's really nothing worth mentioning.

Esta nueva oportunidad de trabajo de Adam Sandler y Jennifer Anniston carece del carisma y química que "Just go with it", y es porque la película tiene un guión flojo que falla en darle los tintes de romántica o de acción.
"Murder Mystery" es la historia de un policía y una peluquera que se hallan en medio de un asesinato, y es su deber limpiar su nombre de la lista de sospechosos mientras buscan al verdadero culpable.
La trama aunque ya vista puede funcionar si el grupo y las pistas son lo suficientemente bien jugadas para hacer que uno pueda seguir el misterio por su cuenta, pero aquí se desperdicia esa conexión haciendo del misterio algo sólo de los protagonistas.
Si hay que darle unos puntos positivos es gracias a la comedia, no es de la mejor, pero por partes se las arreglan para hacer reír.
En general no puedo recomendarla a pesar de que me guste la química de la pareja, el problema pasa por la estructura del film que poco le otorga al espectador.

In my opinion most of these are heavily underrated of course there are bad ones like the ridiculous six and sandy wexler but this and the do over are good. The plot is couple Nick Splitz (Adam Sandler) and his wife Audrey (Jennifer Aniston) take a long overdue honeymoon but while on the plane they run into billionaire Charles Cavendish (Luke Evans) who invites them on their yacht for their honeymoon but on the trip Malcom Quince (Terrance Stamp) is murdered on the boat and since Nick is a detective he must find the killer who include an actress Grace Ballard (Gemma Arterton), Tobias Quince (David Walliams) and other suspects. The movie is based off of the board game murder mystery and is similar in tone of course this movie brings in a lot of hate simply due to the fact that Adam Sandler is in it who is one of the most hated actors in Hollywood. Don’t let the low critic scores fool you it’s a fun movie and has a good final act so I’m going to give it a 7/10 Expand

Final Thoughts:

Murder Mystery is undeniably schlocky fun, but, despite its short runtime, it struggles to get itself going. Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston as Nick and Audrey Spitz work the same, and the film largely depends on whether you’re a fan of theirs (I’m fifty/fifty, given their limited range).

Plot beats and chemistry are missing from the first third of the film, and, for many, when they improve, it might be too late. Persevere, though, and the comedy begins to hit, the thrills finally manage to pulse, and some genuine heart comes shining through to finish on a satisfying note.
