Disappointing to a true Christie-fan

Rating: 5/10 (20 October 2018)

One thing is, that I do not think that Kenneth Branagh do the great Hercule Poirot justice. As a true fan, I think that David Suchet is the most perfect Poirot, and it is obviously too big shoes to fill for Branagh.
Another thing is, that the strong finish, that Christie is a master of, gets kind of blah. It is make to seem, that Poirot cannot solve this crime, which is so obvious, and first at the end it hits him *Sigh* In the novel and in the Suchet movie it is pretty clear, that Poirot knows, but is having a moral dilemma. He understands the motive, but do not condone of murder, and therefore he is less than inclined to solve the riddle, than in his other cases. This fact is totally left out of this remake!
Why do I give it 5 stars then, you ask. The scenery and the stunning sets.
