Whodunit!

Rating: 7/10 (13 November 2017)

I definitely enjoyed Murder on the Orient Express. It was a fun murder mystery. The greatest thing about this movie was, hands down, the whodunit feel. Murder on the Orient Express was very reminiscent of the Scooby Doo or Nancy Drew mysteries from my childhood. The detective, is Hercule Poirot, a borderline OCD character that strives to find an even balance in everything in life. Because of his unique outlook, he has throughout his life become a great detective with the ability to see things that are out of place. While trying to go on a real vacation, he takes the train Orient Express where there is eventually, of course, a murder. The movie follows the detective as he strives to ascertain the murderer by finding clues, questioning the other passengers for motives, and cross referencing alibis. I thought the characters were well played by their actors, the flow of the movie was never stale, and the detectives mustache were on point. Throughout the movie I was switching between which passenger was my top suspect for the case, and the ending did not disappoint me.
