Review of Murder on the Orient Express (1974) by Fredrik S — 11 Nov 2013
Sidney Lumet brings Agatha Christie's "Murder on the Orient Express" to life in this star studded film lead by Albert Finney as her famous detective Hercule Poirot. I liked this adaptation, it served the book (which I have read) quite well.
I think it's a fun mystery film, and Finney is quite fun in the lead, despite the fact that I think David Suchet is the ultimate version of Poirot, he does a solid job of bringing the character to life.
If you like a classically filmed mystery, you shouldn't be disappointed in a film like this.
