To say that I considerClueto be thebest movie of all timefeels a bit ridiculous to me. It's the same as me saying, "The sky is blue" or "The earth is round" or "People shouldstandon the right side of the escalator andwalkon the left side of the escalator." It's like, duh, come on, of course, it's science, there's no refuting this.
And I know I'm not alone in my love of all thingsClue. If you've watched it, you know (and if you know, youknow).
For those of you who somehow don't know (no judgment but also, like, a lot of judgment),Clueis amurder mystery comedyinspired by the board game of the same name, starring Tim Curry, Christopher Lloyd, Madeline Kahn and more. When it came out in 1985, the film was campy, the film was star-studded, the film was a flop. But after being a bomb at the box office, the movie went on to gain a massive cult following over the years—I consider myself one of those cult members. There's evenaClueremake in the workswithJason BatemanandRyan Reynolds.
Having partaken indozens of viewings over the years, I still have to say that my biggest joy comes fromwatching it with a friendwho is seeing it for the first time. Finally, they will understand what I'm talking about when someone in life refers to a cook and I suddenly blurt out, "But look what happened to the cook!" But most importantly, they will understand why I considerClueto be thebest movie of all time.
