Excellent but underrated film

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

If you're going to attempt to direct a movie based upon a train maybe actually take a train. At least watch a movie that takes place upon a train. Maybe read the book. Completely missing the claustrophobia of a train, this debacle attempts to be stylish according to a nerd and CGI. The story that so pointedly got across the idea of an enclosed area with so many people as suspects that allows no one to breathe, has completely been missed here. People don't bump into each other. Nobody has to stand aside to let someone past. Instead the train scenes are envisioned by someone who thinks a truck could be driven through a train and nobody would even have to step aside as long as it looks cool on CGI.This was a movie that could have been shot exactly as Twelve Angry Men in a single room. Probably should have. But in the modern tradition where people need CGI to remain entertained and feel more isn't enough, it's about expected.Compared to crap like San Andreas this is an absolute masterpiece, but that's like being the tallest midget.

An unnecessary remake? Not a chance! Finely crafted on every level, with a few directorial quirks, but that's Branagh. Wonderful to watch and listen to. Great script. Perfect pacing. Flawless acting. Priceless one-liners. Agatha Christie brought beautifully to the screen. And I even forgive the CGI. Sometimes the critics are right and sometimes the public is. In this case, the latter. The movie made $350 million and hinted at a remake of "Death on the Nile." Go, Kenneth!

Well acted, Wells directed, and well presented. A delightful retelling of an old story!

This is a stunning and beautiful production. More than appareances though, this was clearly made by fans of Poirot. I have always loved Poirot and this representation does incredible justice to the character.
