Scott C @ScottClinton 2d Typical Agatha Cristie in that she was an absolute genius writer of mystery novels upon which she based everything on some of the world's absolute best CHARACTERS. If you are looking for a whodunit where you need a notepad to track clues and the enjoyment is about out guessing the sleuth and do not know that Agatha Cristie is the wrong place... Now you do. With the above in mind, there is a reason she is (even today) one of the world's best-known writers of popular fiction: wonderfully memorable characters. Combined the pedigree of the writer and a decent producer and you can attract a wonderful case: which is what they have done here. Quite enjoyable all around.

I have seen Murder She Wrote episodes far more intriguing and complicated than this series, which is unnecessarily long and full of holes and gaps in the plot.

See more Mimi H @Annie630 Jan 19 What a load of crap, replete with expositional speeches and grammatical errors. Prior version far better, and even then, it was not one of Christie's best novels. Pathetic, dumbed-down version, which actors must have done for the $$$. So disappointed in HB-C. Makes all the rest of her acting suspect. Netflix, feh! See more John W Jan 17 Although they are 41 years apart I far preferred this film to Netflx's glossy 2026 version. The 1981 film is faithful to the Christie book and it's ending, whilst NF goes off on a wild goose chase (literally) with a completely different & improbable behind the scenes murderer. I was so disappointed. Martin Freeman steals the show and is the best thing about it. Huzzah for the 1981 film. Better in every way. See more Read all reviews
