This movie is a really good interpretation of Agatha Christie's novel. The story is really well-told and the actors are amazing at playing their role. The 3D effects for the landscapes are incredible, this movie is a pure beauty. Perhaps the links between the characters might be a little bit complicated to understand because the story goes quite fast but overall this movie is really good.

The casting was really good with actors like Johnny Deep. The film is a good detective film with Hercule Poirot who solves a crime in the Orient Express train. I like the film because there are many turnaround. The suspens was always present during the movie and the end was also really good and surprising.

Despite the impressive casting, the interpretations of the stars are trite. Moreover the soundtrack is kind of senseless compared to the plot. However the scenario is fascinating ! As always A.Christie does not decent us. The film is good but not very striking. You can watch it once but not twice

Agatha Christie was one of the greatest writers of crime novels ever. However, its hard to doubt that the short episodes and films of "Agatha Christie's Poirot" set a new paradigm for the adaptation of these books to cinema or television and that it will be difficult, in the next years, to surpass the interpretation of David Suchet. Anyway, this movie is prior to all this, dating back to 1974. The plot faithfully follows the book, so there is no great mystery here. What struck me most was the luxurious star-cast, worthy of a true super-production, with memorable names like Albert Finney, Lauren Bacall, Ingrid Bergman, Jacqueline Bisset, Jean- Pierre Cassel, Sean Connery, Wendy Hiller, Anthony Perkins and Vanessa Redgrave. Impressive. Personally, I didn't find Finney convincing in the role of the Belgian detective. The way he moved and spoke seemed very unnatural, particularly the way he seemed to be hiding his neck all the time. But this is the only negative criticism for cast performance, which did a very good job. Particularly, I would point out Lauren Bacall for the intense and passionate way she was given to her character. Ingrid Bergman and Wendy Hiller also deserve a word of praise. The rest, however, did not have much room to truly shine. It even feels sometimes that the cast has not been completely taken advantage of.Visually, the movie is very good. Cinematography uses a lot of light and the colors are pleasant, as well as the choice of locations, sets and costumes. The soundtrack was competent and did his job well, but it's far from iconic.
