Linkshoch Wonderful Movie
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
barbara-paschen I didn't read the book, so I guess I was lucky. I really liked it.
mobfmly-02001 Great adaptation totally in line with the previous years adaptation of 'and then there were none' which I absolutely loved too. Great acting, very Christie in a lot of ways, moody, with dark elements accented with suspenful music score. A great up to date version on a Christie theme
gordonhr I don't like this modern adaptations of Agatha Christie's novels. I turn to her when I want a glimpse in to a different times, with different manners and customs. A cosy crime story, escapism, but with her good psychological observations. It seems that Sarah Phelbs wants to be a better than the master, but she takes everything what is good and genius about Christie and destroy it in the process. This can also be seen in the Witness of the Prosecution adaptation. She really wants it to be "contemporary" and she fils it with so much sex that it only gets vulgar. There is no sex in Agatha Christie's work. Not so much in the face. If she wanted to include so much open sex descriptions and conversation about it, she would. It was no uncommon thing to write about it in her age and within a genre. In fact, there is so much genre writers who have used it profoundly. She has distinctive style and Sarah Phelbs has missed it completely. I have stopped watching Ordeal by Innocence on the beginning of the third episode and decided to read the novel again instead, because a forgot the end of it, it was a long time when a read it. And I recommend everyone to do so if they want a classy and stylish read. In the future I will avoid every adaptation with Sarah Phelbs name in it.
vasilikoula81 Pompous,pretentious,tiring. It's an absolute flop.
