As an entry in a series glass onion was an enjoyable enough romp.

I agree though, it doesn’t feel in the same league as knives out.

And am I crazy or does every Netflix movie have shots that look ridiculously cheap?

I’m wondering if I would compare the quality of glass onion as something like bullet train (glass onion) compared to snatch or lock stock. (Knives outs). Bullet train was enjoyable enough but clearly inspired by something better. Train/Onion also both fell apart and got less interesting as their plots resolved.
