Previous SnoopA simple Favour Friendship With A Twist Next SnoopPrestige Pawn Brokers Chelsea London Lindsey Lowson / 05 May 2025 / Categories: Movie and TV Shows Another Simple Favour Family Farse A modern carry on murder mystery sequel First off didn’t realise Another Simple Favour is the sequel to A simple favour. Which I haven’t seen but Another simple favour whilst OK, funny, entertaining, perhaps would have been better to watch in order. A cute watch for the whole family. It’s young, it’s fast paced, it’s silly, it’s modern, like I said young in feel.The story is Agatha Christie esque when best friend to Emily, nee Olivia (Blake Lively) Stephanie Smothers played by Anna Kendrick writes a book about Emily murdering her twin which turns out to be triplet Hope in the first film. Except she doesn’t, it gets a bit complicated but all will be revealed. So Emily is really Hope Mclandon who kills her sister Faith in the first film and then fakes her own death for an insurance premium.This is where the sequel picks up in the story at Stephanie Smothers book launch of “The Faceless Blonde” and shock horror who should show up but the murdering faceless blonde herself Emily.She has one question for the startled sleuth, be my maid of honour, I am getting married in the beautiful island of Capri.So for the grownups there is stunning vistas, a holiday by proxy to the Italian Riveria for the 20 somethings there is glamour, gorgeous clothes, a flashy wedding, style and sass in equal measure and for younger viewers there is the quirky weirdness of Aunt Linda played by Alison Janney, who ends up going over a cliff at the drop of Tiberius, after smothering her sister Margaret played by the hilarious Elizabeth Perkins in a bad wig, but it’s not in a scary, sinister way, it’s more slapstick. She’s a baddie all along.If you are looking for something light, a little loopy set in a gorgeous opulent mafiosi palace on the majestic island of Capri with sardonic humour thrown in then this is your flick.It’s zany and stupid in parts, Vespa chases and fast getaways intertwined with internet influencing and a tongue in check look at social media. And for the men well Blake Lively in a stupendous array on outrageous outfits strutting her curves with authority all over the shop. Girls you might have a girl crush.Not a must watch for me but if you are looking for a film that would crossover ages this is a light funny family film slash mad murder mystery movie.
