Murder On The Orient Express

Agatha Christie's book by the same title is brought to life in this most excellent remake.

It's out on the dvd I guess, I just watched it on the pay-per-view.

It was perfect. I saw no flaws in this movie.

If you're a fan, you won't be dissappointed.

I highly recommend it.

Yep. Fan of the original, I was not let down by the remake either. And that being that I had wondered how long it would take to before a remake was made.
Performances were worth watching and the scenery and settings lavish.

Very stylish. Well acted.

But not over-the-top.

I intended on watching this on the way back home Thursday since I liked the original and wanted to see how this turned out. As you enjoyed it, that means I'll watch Fifty Shades of Crap instead.

I wrote a screenplay for "Fifty Shades of Gravy".


The Food Channel bought the rights.

Saw it last night.
Beautifully done version.
Still think David Suchet makes the best Poirot...but Kenneth Branagh was excellent.

Is this the one with Charlie Chan?

a reply to: DBCowboy

I was encouraged by the very last scene when Branagh recieved a message requesting his help in Egypt.

I caught that as well.

*finger crossed*

I even mentioned to my wife how I was reminded of Peter Ustinov's portrayal in Death On The Nile.

Peter Ustinov would be my favorite.

Nice, looking forward to watching this!

I saw your pilot on Food Network, btw, but the title had been changed to Fifty Shapes of Gravy.

I watched it on the plane coming home from Mexico.
Never read the book but the movie kept me glued from start to finish. Great characters played by great actors.

Loved the original, I watched it many time when I was a lot younger.

Watched it tonight too.

That ending was crazy.

I can't decide who made the best Oriental...Peter Sellers or John Wayne.

Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's. It was such a non-stereotypical role and a very powerful performance.

Is it a scene by scene recreation like what they did with Psycho?

There's a Call of Cthulhu game called Horror on the Orient Express.

Ricardo Montalban in Sayonara.

Oh, Mickey. You're so fine.
You're so fine.
You're so fine you blow my mind.

When Edward G. Robinson played Anna in "The King and I", it was the best performance.
