Only Murders in the Building

Three strangers share an obsession with true crime and suddenly find themselves wrapped up in one. When a grisly death occurs inside their exclusive Upper West Side apartment building, the trio suspects murder and employs their precise knowledge of true crime to investigate the truth. Perhaps even more explosive are the lies they tell one another. Soon, the endangered trio comes to realize a killer might be living among them as they race to decipher the mounting clues before it’s too late.

Constant F-bombs. Lots of innuendo or outright nasty talk. A cat dies, which is upsetting enough, but people openly care about it more than the victim (and don’t get me wrong, I love animals. But a whole building of people getting more worked up over a cat than a human dying?). Our heroes are constant liars, swindlers, and cowards, which, while fully fleshed-out, doesn’t set a good example. Loved the music. Loved the actors. Loved the cameo of Sting. It’s a shame that they decided to try to make it more appealing to a younger audience by making it racier, because I might’ve appreciated it had they not had to douse the plot with as much filth as possible. There are funny moments, but not enough to make this worth it .
