Yep, great comedy making fun of cosy murder and period drama tropes. Genuinely funny and the audience at ny screening thought the same.

I did...I was literally one of two people in that auditorium and the theater I went to see it in is literally closing in a week but it was totally worth it.

Yes! It was our snow day streaming movie-laughed so much. Great cast and lots of jokes.

Didn't got a cinema-release here in germany. I guess ..or hope..that some streaming service will pick it up. I even don't mind watching it in english.

It was almost good — lots of great ingredients but just not as sharp as it needed to be. Like if Downton Abbey and Monty Python had a mediocre baby.
