Natasha Lyonne is the one and only reason to watch this movie, but she is not in it enough to make it any good. I watch/read mysteries partly for the thrill of feeling like a detective so when this opens with the killer introducing themselves as the killer i lose my excitement for the story. I usually like Jeff Garlin but here he is a bit irritating and sadly not very funny. This may have worked better as a series but as a stand alone film it ain't great.
Better Than This: A Shot In The Dark (1964) Funny, silly and gave us one of the best known bumbling detectives Inspector Clouseau, The Nice Guys (2016) Funny with a mystery that you are allowed to solve, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994) Lots of people hate it but i think its absolutely hilarious.
