A Lackluster Murder Mystery: A Haunting in Venice Movie Review

In today’s movie review, I'll review the newly released movie, "A Haunting in Venice." Prepare for a spoiler-free discussion as I explore the unexpected twists and turns of this murder mystery set in 1940s Italy. Join me as I share my thoughts on the film, the performances, and the stunning production design.

Here are my key takeaways from the movie:

🎬 False Advertising: The movie wasn't what I expected, as it was marketed as a supernatural thriller but turned out to be more of a murder mystery in the style of Knives Out. It could have easily taken place in any other location or time period, but Venice did provide a picturesque setting. 🌆

💼 Inconsistent Accents: While the detective portrayed by a French actor nailed his accent, some of the other characters seemed to struggle with maintaining a consistent accent throughout the film. Tina Fey, in particular, had her accent mysteriously appearing and disappearing throughout the movie. 🎭

📸 Solid Production Design: Despite my mixed feelings about the overall film, I appreciated the attention to detail in the production design. Venice looked absolutely stunning on screen, and it was interesting to see familiar landmarks used in different movies filmed in Italy. 🎥

Hello, everybody. Welcome to my channel. My name is Johanny, and in today's video, I'll be reviewing the movie a hunting in Venice, which came out today, September 15th, a hunting in Venice, it's pretty much knives out 3, set in the forties in Italy. This movie was, false advertised to me because I thought this was gonna be some sort of supernatural mystery, but it wasn't this could have been the 3rd film to the Night's Owl, Mystery series. It is just it takes place, in the forties in Italy, and the detective is a French guy instead of a southern guy. By the way, this is also gonna be a short review. I am still without a computer, and I cannot edit any videos. So I am filming this review in my phone, so I'm gonna try to make it short so I could just do it all in one take.

So a hunter and I'm not gonna do I'm not gonna give you any spoilers. I'm just gonna tell you what I thought about the movie. So a hunter and Venice was not I was not impressed. I didn't really care for it. Like I said, I thought it was gonna be some sort of supernatural, like, horror thing, but it wasn't. It was just a murder mystery film that could have been part of the knife's out miss, series. Tina Fey was in this movie, and at the beginning of the movie, she had an accident and it disappeared throughout in the middle of the movie. Didn't have it, and then you came back and then she didn't have it again.

And it was sort of like that. Like, a lot of them had some accent that came in and out. The only one that was really good with his accent was the detective, the French guy. He stayed consistent throughout, but everybody else, they were like, in and out, and they all, they were all from different place. I don't know why this took place in Venice. This could have this could have been taken place. Upstate New York, and it would have been the same movie. It could also be taking place in modern time, not in the forties.

Anyways, I did like the production design. I've noticed that, in the setting, I've noticed that a lot of movies this this is the 3rd movie that I saw that was filmed in Italy, like, fast ten. They had a bunch of scenes in Italy, and I feel like it was around same area. Mission impossible. They had a scene and there's a bridge. They used it in this movie too, and I've remember seeing it. I mean, like, Wait a minute. That's formation impossible.

Anyways, but I love the setting, Venice, Italy. It's beautiful, and they look pretty good. There were scenes that I felt like the camera work. I was like, was this fun with an eye pro? Because I have that, like, fish eye look. Not an eye pro, a GoPro. Like, was this film with a GoPro? Anyways, if you're into murder mystery, films. I'm sure you're gonna like this one. I didn't care for it.

Because I was expecting something else. I was expecting a supernatural horror thriller, and it wasn't that. But overall, the movie was okay. I rated it 1a half stars. You could wait for it to come on, streaming services because The movie was just okay to me. The, the detective was pretty good. You know, it reminded me, it's the same story from, like, all this murder mystery movies, knives out, the glass on A bunch of people in a house, a murder happens, and then they have this, like, world famous detective, the finds that figures out who did it. That's it.

That's the movie. But, overall, I gave this movie 1a half stars, in wasn't that I wasn't that impressed with it. Aside from the production design and, like, the setting and the detective, those they're, good. Everything else was just okay. Tina faced accent came in and out. I don't know why she decided to do an accent when she to commit for the whole movie. Anyways, that is my review. Hopefully, by next I'll have my computer and I'll be able to edit these videos a little more.

Like, I like to do and, like, add my things here and there. For now, this is, it's just my phone. There's no music, which I hate because I like putting the music on Anyways, thank you so much for watching. I hope you enjoyed this review. If you did, please give it a thumbs up sure to subscribe.
