I've seen no reviews and I have no idea if I'm wasting my time.  It's the saturday night release on HBO.

I read one review and it wasn't positive. It's on my watch list. I'm a big Agatha Christie fan and enjoyed the recent Murder on the Orient Express. However I think that David Suchet is the definitive Hercule Poirot.

I watched it. Kenneth Branagh produced and directed it. This is not his first foray into the genre. It looks to me like he wants to give a broader definition to Poirot. A third film with him as Poirot  is in the pipeline.

Just look at that mustache.

This movie at least explained the mustache.

I love Robin.  He was a beautiful human being, a sad loss.  This scene was brilliant.

 

I was an amazing scene for sure and unfortunately, not that difficult to communicate for Robin Williams.  He was a brilliant actor and person.

Does he still wear an artful beard? 

I don't know, I don't go over there much any more. At far as I saw, he didn't wear his beard in such an ornate fashion. If my recollection is true, he braided it on occasion. It would be a serious time suck to wear a beard like that every day.

You're looking a bit like a detective yourself these days.

I read the book a month or two ago in preparation for the movie. I'll probably watch it this weekend.  I liked MotOE (despite differences from the book), so will likely enjoy this one as well.
