Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì

Murder Mystery—simple, clean, straightforward, classic murder mystery—plays Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston together in a family friendly film worth watching. The nicely written and easy-to-follow script does not use fear as its driving theme and serves at a surprisingly refreshing entertainment piece.
