I didn't watch the whole movie because after watching a few clips, I didn't think it was worth wasting two hours watching this movie at all. I just randomly searched for a video of the whole movie on YouTube, and then confirmed that this movie is really not worth watching at all.
You can say that it's disrespectful to the film makers to comment without seeing the whole film, but I think they don't respect Granny's novels, they don't respect Polo, and they don't even respect the IQ of the moviegoers first. draw.
In the outline I saw, Pop was strong and walked with wind, and it was a little far from the original image of wide-hearted, fat and slow. But I can bear this for the time being. After all, there are not many actors who are willing to gain weight for their roles. Maybe the star thinks Lockhart's stupid dudes are worth the weight gain, but Poirot isn't. Of course, as in the original book, Polo's mustache is very meticulously taken care of, and the "moustache" in this film is like a prop on the mouth of a drama actor. I don't even care. Calculated.
Then Polo yelled at everyone during the interrogation, impolite. Okay, okay, you think Polo's slow state affects the efficiency of the case too much. You like Sherlock Holmes... Sherlock Holmes doesn't seem to be shouting. Those who like to shout and show their momentum when they have nothing to do... It seems that there is no such thing. After all, this kind of behavior seems very stupid. Which writer has the heart to write his protagonist as such a stupid look.
In fact, I've wanted to give at least three points so far, but the details of the stabbed Lady Hubbard in the movie really made me feel that the movie couldn't hold a 0 point. What the 12 people in the car have been trying to do is to disguise the murderer of this case as an "outsider", someone who kills and escapes, even if he can't "leave" the train because of heavy snow, at least he can't be. any of them. And here, Mrs. Hubbard was assassinated. Isn't it true that the murderer is among these people?
If the interpretation of Polo himself is nothing but the director's arrogance, then such a messy adaptation of the plot is stupid. Judging a movie, being arrogant is tolerable. After all, some detectives are arrogant themselves, but stupidity is absolutely unacceptable.
The director also wanted to film the massacre on the Nile, hehe... I may not even waste time watching the synopsis of the film he made.
