Ana de Armas just wasn't a good lead


Daniel Craig carried the movie and also every scene he had with Armas. This girl just doesn't have it when it comes to acting talent or it factor. Just another starlet that is praised for her looks and who will fade after her 15 mins of fame are over.

I thought every performance was good. With an ensemble cast like this one some people are not going to get much in the way of screen time. It would have been nice to see more of Riki Lindhome, but she only had a few lines.

Says you...the movie wouldn't work if she sucked.

I don't know if you're wrong or not, but I agree that her performance wasn't strong in Knives Out. Whether that's the actress's fault or whether the script's - for purposely focusing on her appearance more than anything else - I can't say.
