Murder mystery is exactly that, a murder mystery. Sandler and Aniston co star in this comedy as a police officer who can't seem to pass his detectives exam and his wife, a hairdresser in need of a break. The couple go on a long awaited retreat but are offered a cruise ride by a rich stranger in place of a tour bus.

After accepting and meeting the other passengers on board, thing's quickly go south when one of them is murdered (see where this is going?) The jokes come in nicely and the couple's banter is fun.

This is the best I've seen Sandler since the ridiculous 6 and Aniston since the bounty hunter.

Does Alfred Hitchcock do anything else?

Right now, I'm in a film class for school and it's all about Alfred Hitchcock. We're watching most of his collected works and honestly, I feel like once you've seen one, you've seen them all. It's clear through his films that he's very into murder and murder mysteries and thrillers. He likes stairs and birds and shadows. He's batshit about symbolism and irony and cyclical plots, something always turns back around.

This is my fourth or maybe fifth Hitchcock film and I don't know how I am supposed to continue to watch them. I feel like I'm watching a bad show that should've ended seasons ago but hasn't had the guts to call it quits yet. It's so disappointing!
