It isn't often that I'm left speechless, but after watching Murder Mystery 2, I was at a loss of how to discuss this film on Chick Flick Chat. The second movie murders all the joy, fun, and adventure of Murder Mystery 1. Sad to say, but very true, my apologies to Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler. See my earlier Chick Flick Chat covering the first of this franchise whereI had high hopes and expectations for the follow up film. Time...

In the HBOMax original series, The Staircase, starring Colin Firth and Toni Collette, the most important aspect is that it is based on real events. The fact that this is a true story, combined with good acting, a substantial supporting cast - including Juliette Binoche - and very compelling direction (by Antonio Campos), makes The Staircase a must see. Two spoilers in this Chick Flick Chat, I do chat about the whole story, and FYI:...
