Critic Reviews for Murder On The Orient Express

Audience Reviews for Murder On The Orient Express

• Sep 18, 2018

  The beginning of the film is perfect, an exotic location, a neat little introduction to the character, the sequences conjures up images of the great adventures of Lawrence of Arabia or even Indy Jones. Then we are getting on the train. The cast is amazing, of course, so is the narrow setting of the train and cinematography. Once Poirot starts investigating, things flow rather perfectly too. What's missing is a major shock or twist, at least if you're somewhat familiar with the story. They did a little action sequence here or there, but in the end the result is entertaining but a bit underwhelming.

  Held onto the rails by visually stunning direction, effective performance from Branagh and cast, Murder on the Orient Express provides a solid pay-off even if its second act will have you thinking of the destination and not the journey. 3/5

  The 1974 adaptation of Christie's novel is flawed but at least it had Sydney Lumet as a director. Branagh can't juggle the massive ensemble or figure out how to effectively use the large budget at his disposal.

  I never saw the original, but color me intrigued when I saw the star studded lineup for Kenneth Branagh's remake. Actor and director of his own film, Branagh's take is too chaotic and unfocused to deliver any real kicks outside of managing to get all these star-studded actors together. The twist of the film comes so far from left field due to the plot's inability to establish any background on 12 different faces. Unfotunately, the tone of the film is unclear from the beginning because of Branagh's acting style choice. Is this a crime caper with comedy? It felt like a National Treasure or The Mummy happy-go-lucky opening with a following over the next two hours as serious and as drama filled as Gone Baby Gone. It started fun and jovial and then turned heavy handed multiple times throughout. But with so many characters involved with such clout in the industry, only a handful were really only going to get the true focus all of them should have gotten.
