The plot involves a New York City cop named Nick and his wife Audrey, played by Sandler and Aniston, who make a friend on a flight to Europe. The vacationing couple end up on the run after being framed for a billionaire’s murder.
Omg #MurderMystery is brilliant ????? It’s like a ridiculous modern Poirot except with Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler as a hilarious American couple instead of an elderly Belgian gent. ??????
