Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Larry Butchins Despite the lavish settings, some handy acting and dark theme portending something menacing (as all Agatha Christie stories should...) the movie falls short on so many levels. I said "handy" acting - not great, just acceptable. Glenn Close was not as good as I would have expected. In fact she seemed quite uncomfortable in her role and seemed to be working incredibly hard at her English accent. Max Irons was OK, but actually not very convincing as a "private eye" and the way the screenplay was built was somewhat confusing: who belonged to whom? Gillian Anderson was suitably OTT, but I felt that many of the actors were trying too hard. All in all, it lacked pace, it dragged and apart from the house, the direction was somewhat crooked.
benschiehall I'm surprised that Julian Fellows has a credit for this screenplay as the script was littered with language that did not come into use in the UK until decades later. It's bad enough that our language is being eradicated by Americanisms in the present day but this revisionistic assault is adding insult to injury.
Filmwatcher .... unfair reviews, great acting, great stars and very stylish. Well made piece of film, great music score, fast paced from start to finish! Give it a watch, don't listen to the trolls, i loved it!
moonwajhi A great crime story with great acting.... love it....
