A game that curdles into real danger while everyone keeps quipping
The difference: A suburban couple's caper, not a detective untangling billionaires

Rian Johnson's own blueprint — a plot that rewards paying close attention
The difference: Teen noir shot with no jokes, not a starry comic whodunit

An eccentric master detective narrating his way through an impossible case
The difference: A scrappy indie two-hander, not an all-star island ensemble

A knowing, self-aware romp that's in on its own joke the whole way
The difference: An action-heavy meta-comedy, not a slow-build detective puzzle

Genre satire that skewers its own conventions while still working as one
The difference: Pure absurdist spoof, no actual puzzle for you to solve

A cast of scheming rich eccentrics playing a very dark game of one-upmanship
The difference: A London drug-empire thriller, grittier than a beachside whodunit

A glossy whodunit playing its billionaire's-world murder for laughs
The difference: Broader slapstick around the mystery, less bite in the satire

Dark comedy that turns class resentment into something genuinely dangerous
The difference: A desperate-man thriller, not a puzzle built for you to solve

Dark comedy that finds absurdity in people convinced of their own righteousness

Dark comedy that keeps a straight face while a family secret unravels
The difference: A grim Danish family horror-comedy, no detective and no whodunit
