Murder On Orient Express

Based on the famous book Murder On The Orient Express written by Agatha Christie, now it's the time for this book to step into real life adaptation. This film is focused on Hercule Poirot (Kenneth Branagh), a famous detective known for his intelligence and peculiarity in solving crimes. Having his last case before he retires, he boards a train (Orient Express) with 12 other people. On his way to his destination, a murder occured inside the train and he, Hercule Poirot, must solve the case before the murderer strikes again. A typical detective movie, right? Nope. It might seems cliché at first, but what strikes me the most is not the fact that the level of details are shown in the movie, but in fact the true moral values depicted in the movie. The story might be called slow on the earlier part of the movie. As the plot progresses, the viewers will certainly be shocked upon the wonderful twists that will leave them thinking for days!

Whoever into detective movies could watch Murder On The Orient Express for some real detective vibes. A film worth watching for me. I rate it 8.5/10

This definitely looks like a good movie. The movie poster makes it seem like a dark movie with some kind of plot in there. Johnny Depp's presence in the movie gave the kind of mysterious dark feel. It's like Sweeney Todd.

I have not watch this movie yet though I wanted to when it was out in the theatres, somehow it seems that this movie is not that popular among the folks here.

I'm afraid this movie is not giving any hype at the cinemas. Nonetheless, the movie is great and yeah Johnny Depp's act is on point. Great and cool! Give it a try :)
