Murder on the Orient Express (2010)
An altogether slicker, pacier and dare i say darker telling of the Agatha Christie classic which benefits from not needing to give an all star cast their fair share of screen time as hampered the 1974 movie nor are we distracted by Poirot's ridiculous mustache as seen in the 2017 film.
That being said the likes of David Morrissey, Eileen Atkins, Jessica Chastain and Hugh Bonneville all provide excellent support to David Suchet's Poirot.
To anyone who might ask is Suchet any good as the great detective?
Well, Suchet IS Poirot like Jeremy Brett IS Sherlock Holmes.
Probably should have posted this in the tv thread, but seeing as it's 90 mins and movie length it doesn't matter. |
