A Satisfying Take On Christie's Disappearance
24 April 2019
I saw this movie with my mom, and we both enjoyed it. As a fan of Agatha Christie's work, it was certainly interesting to see this visial take on her strange disappearance. Much more interesting than the book entitled: Agatha, which was about the same thing. I don't think I shall ever feel the need to watch it again, but it accomplished what was expected.

The plot moved slowly, so it probably wouldn't appeal to viewers who appreciate more action. It actually reminded both my mother and I of the 2015 mini-series, And Then There Were None, based on Christie's novel with the same name. Of course, it does not move towards the same ending, but the basic idea was there.

A note on the profanity: one of the characters dropped the f-bomb a few times, and while I am not well-read about the time period, I'm fairly sure it wouldn't have been used the way it is used, today. It wasn't offensive enough to warrant a true rant, but it's there.
