Death on the Nile | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

Might take forever to get going with its extremely long first act… & gives to many indicators to who the killer will be… making it obvious before the murder happens… but still I found it surprisingly entertaining in the back half

The film drags on too long and there is too much setup prior to the murder that becomes distracting over time.

Death on the Nile retains the problems of its predecessor, containing an even less mysterious central mystery and even less interesting multiple storylines.

Is there a point to re-adapting these already-familiar films and novels? Branagh doesn’t successfully answer that question, seemingly trading on that sense of familiarity to sell tickets to the remake.

As stated, many times here, Hercule Poirot may be the greatest detective in the world. Is Death On The Nile the greatest detective movie in the world? Definitely not. Not even close. Anyone who says otherwise has had enough champagne to feel denial.
