The Murder on the Orien Express is too safe and too harmless murder mystery. Unfortunately, there not so much going on below the surface, such that this mystery is never so exciting and so interesting as one should want. The action takes of at a satisfactory pace, but the development in this story and this film is based upon relationships as the protagonist apparently is taking off from the loose air.

So, what is happening in this story? Poirot is taking the Orient Express, and during the night nearby Vinkovci, and Vinkovci is a city in Slavonia, many things are occurring, but Poirot heard a scream. Poirot determines himself that this is just a trifle, and he continues to sleep more. In the morning after this night, Poirot is informed of M. Bouc about that Mr. Rachett has been killed, and Poirot thereafter begins to investigate the case.

Hercule Poirot is trying to solve this criminal issue by being open and reflective. There are two explanations for the killing. The first is that a foreign person has done it. And the second is that all the suspicious persons on the train has something to do with it. The killer is here on the train. Poirot is speculating much about these two theories, but he cannot prove anything with certainty. Therefore, he withdraws from the case.
