[SPOILER-FREE REVIEW]
I have bought this Blu-Ray due to an upcoming release of the Haunting in Venice, which I’m quite excited about. I had watched the first part (Murder on the Orient Express) and now have given a try to this adaptation of another Agatha Christie’s classic. However, I must initially state that the story in the movie is not an exact copy of Christie’s plot. There are some changes in comparison to the book so be aware of that.
The movie is absolutely stunning, as very picturesque, CGI-enhanced panoramas are shown quite often again, just like in the Murder on The Orient Express. Similarly to the previous movie, this one involves many talented actors & actresses, the cast is definitely the strongest part of the film. While I enjoyed the movie quite a bit, I must say that the previous part felt more interesting, the murder happened quicker in the Murder on the Orient Express (therefore it was more tense) and more importantly it’s way easier to guess who the murderer is in Death on the Nile is, after you see the clues shown (I have correctly predicted who the killer is around 30 minutes before end of the movie, in previous part it wasn’t obvious at all).
I saw Death on the Nile in the cinema first courtesy of my daughter and the DVD was a must have.
The enormously talented Kenneth Branagh directs and gives a mesmerising performance as Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot. He is supported admirably by the ensemble casts in both films. Mr Branagh gives performances of great charm and depth, with wonderful glimpses of humour. The scenes are set beautifully and Patrick Doyle’s scores are moving and exciting.
Delayed by covid and the machinations of the main star, this Kenneth Branagh’s adaptation of the famous Poirot novel, seemed fated. However I was pleasantly surprised at the film, which takes a new darker twist on the much known Agatha Christie thriller.
