Everyone always asks who is Argylle, but they never ask how is Argylle? Kind of disappointing, if I'm being honest.

Like any great whodunnit, See How They Run is about the investigation rather than the reveal. And with two loveable investigators, a bunch of effortless jokes, and some engaging visual storytelling, it makes for a killer night at the theatre.

At its core the narrative is great on paper: the idea of taking traditionally villainous criminals and attempting to redeem them is ripe with potential, potential reaped by films like last year’s The Suicide Squad, and even Dreamworks’ own Megamind, but it’s the tropes it ends up using to get there that make it feel like it’s largely re-treading familiar ground.
