Tagline: Murder was just the beginning.
If you want to watch a crime/mystery you can do better than this. It starts of very slow introducing the back story and even when it gets to the main plots of the film, it doesn't change much. However the minimal spots Russel Brand is in save this film. A talented actor who usually sticks with comedy, makes the jump to a more serious and dramatic role naturally. Picking up where they left off at from "Murder on the Orient Express", the chemistry between Kenneth Branagh and Tom Bateman is off the charts. It makes for fantastic scenes. The sheer beauty of the scenery, that was filmed rather exquisitely, accompanied by the perfect score, make up for what the film lacks from all the other actors. All in all if you have 2 hours to spare and you don't mind a movie that can't keep your attention very well then give this one a shot. Or watch clue. Or even Murder Mystery with Adam Sandler.
