Great fun at a Detective story

Rating: 8/10 (3 November 2018)

Amazing set. Great Cinematography. Fine acting. Superb Cast.
Agatha christie is obviously world renowned for her crime stories, this being one of her best sellers. So it goes without saying the story is very well written and the characters as well. Although I was able to figure out minor details as the plot eloped, I didnt see the end coming and was pleasantly surprised by the end.
I thought the use of the swiss mountainside in combination to the express itself lent for an interesting set which never felt dull in what could be consider a single room movie. Constantly keeping it fresh with various new ways of presenting the same set.
Shots were beautiful and really captured the beauty of the scenes.
Poirot was well played, master detective with a quick explanation for his seemingly magical deductions. I never doubted him and it immediately made sense as to how he came to said conclusions. The cast played the characters very well which may seem cold and distant at first, but later it makes sense for there to be a certain 'lack of chemistry'.
Good fun.
