Mediocre and dull, unfortunately

Rating: 6/10 (1 January 2018)

A mediocre murder mystery movie. If you're not familiar with Christie's Poirot stories or David Suchet's version of Poirot, you might find this film more entertaining than I did. David Suchet does so impeccable job as Hercule Poirot that it's almost impossible to beat. And as someone here already said, Branagh's Poirot is from time to time more like Mr. Monk than Mr. Poirot. Branagh's Poirot has too many quirks that don't feel like "Poirot's quirks" but more like Mr. Monk's or someone else's. So, I'm sorry to say, but I didn't like Branagh's Poirot.
The plot has a couple big holes in it, which makes the film bit clumsy. Maybe the erased scenes would shed some light to few things. Nevertheless, the film is "easy to watch" and scenery is beautiful. Not a mind-blowing spectacle, but not totally garbage either. So, if you have plenty of time to watch films, you could check this out, but if you don't have that much time to watch every mediocre film, choose some other movie.
