Great cast! (Spoilers - don't click if you don't know the story/movie)

Shame all their characters are guilty of murder, be really difficult to watch this the way someone who doesn't know the story or earlier retellings would - ah well, I enjoyed it before and so I'm sure I'll enjoy it again.

I think this was one of the few tales I didn't crack before the end myself and was taken aback and pleased with how smart it is and how well it is portrayed.

With Kenny at the wheel and the cast he's got I'm sure it'll be a delight, just a shame I can't get temporary amnesia prior to watching it.

Is there anyone who doesnt know this famous story? It has to be one of Christies most famous. Seems a Strange one to do, unless kenny has a trick up his sleeve to fool us all at the end? Depp comes into view and says "HaHa stupid bastards, that was just a 'fool' length pillow in my bed! HAHAHAHHA".

There will be loads of people who don't know the story but I do think Mr Branagh might have a little surprise for us who think we already know the outcome.

I don't know the famous story at all, wouldn't even know there was a murder if not for the title!

Just here to find out from actual fans if it's any good, so I know if it's worth dragging my mum (the fan) out in her wheelchair to see it!

You should, I'm certain kenny will do it justice.

I don't doubt it! I've seen quite a bit of Mr.Branagh's work over the years, and am a fan.
I'm fortunate to not 'know' Poirot though. So many have an actor favourite.
My mum for instance is on the Suchet-train, it may be more difficult for those that are.

Why did you click the link then?

It clearly states not to.

@Reality
I assume you must be trolling?
Because if you had read the rest of my comment

It would have saved you your pointless snarky comment :-)
