Diagonaldi Very well executed
Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
rich-heaven Annoyed that it has been changed to the point where the killer is different than the killer in the novel That is not cool But I thought he performances were excellent, the music and sets and costumes were top notch
Beany Kelly I binged this on a transatlantic flight, and was initially quite impressed at the style and mood-setting, as well as the acting (though Bill Nighy is overexposed). But as episode 3 progressed, it became apparent that the entire premise of the plot (including the identity of the murderer and the motive) had been upset. I agree with all the other reviewers who said that Christie's name should be removed from the title. She supplied the set-up and cast of characters, but it wasn't the same plot. In fact, the ending felt more like one of Roald Dahl's Tales of the Unexpected than the resolution of a murder mystery.
chrlmackay The murderer is changed and hence the whole plot falls apart. So many details were changed from the original book that it was unrecognisable . Disappointing and confusing viewing if you have read the book. As a stand alone murder mystery this was entertaining but I was too confused by the number of differences between the book and tv drama it spoilt my viewing experience. Agatha must be turning in her grave
vasilikoula81 Pompous,pretentious,tiring. It's an absolute flop.
