Here is My Movie Review Of Murder On The Orient Express

 


Here is My Movie Review Of Murder On The Orient Express


So basically what happens in that you have this guy named Hercules Poirot and he is going on a train to  get to London and walking on the train there this murder that takes place and he has to interview a bunch of passengers to figure out who the killer is and that is basically what the story is for this movie.




The acting in this movie is spectacular. I still think everyone gives it that all and I could tell everyone was having fun as their characters. 


However the stand out of the entire movie is Kenneth Branagh as Hercules Poirot. What makes Hercules Poirot such a wonderful character is that he wants to find out who has command the murder and during all the Interviews with the passengers he's slowly figured out who committed the murder or he thinks he knows of who has committed the murder. Probably my favorite moment with Hercules Poirot is When he first meets Edward Ratchet and he tells them that he's not going to Protect  him because he is a gangster. It is probably the darkest moment in the film. The chemistry between him and Michelle Pfeiffer, Johnny Depp, Willem Dafoe, Tom Bateman, Leslie Odom Jr., and Josh Gad is still really terrific. 




Now Johnny Depp Isn't in this movie that much but I still think for what he has he does a pretty great job of what he's given as the character of Edward Ratchet. Probably my favorite moment It's when Edward Ratchent goes on the train  and talks to Hercules Poirot and points his gun at him. It is probably one of the most suspenseful scenes in the movie. The chemistry between him and Kenneth Branagh Is still fantastic.



Michelle Pfeiffer Plays Caroline Hubbard. I have to say she still does a terrific job and the character of Caroline Hubbard. What makes Caroline Hubbard such an Excellent character is that she also wants to find out who has committed the murder. Probably my favorite moment with Caroline Hubbard  Is when she first meets Hercules Poirot. It is probably one of the best character interaction scenes in the entire film. The chemistry between her and Kenneth Branagh It's still really remarkable. Fun fact a year after this movie came out she would play Hope's mother Janet Van Dyne in Ant-Man the Wasp and then later on she would reprise her role as Janet Van Dyne in Ant-man The Wasp Quantumania. 




Tom Bateman plays Hercules Poirot's friend Bouc. I have to say he still does a tremendous job as the character. What makes Bouc such an interesting character is that he Wants to help his friend Hercules Poirot figure out the suspects who have committed the murder. Probably my favorite part is when Bouc and Hercules Poirot are  meeting some of the passengers on the train and it is probably one of the best moments in the film. The chemistry between him and Kenneth Branagh is still astounding. 





 Willem Dafoe Plays Gerhard Hardman and I have to say he still does an outstanding job as the character of Gerhard Hardman. What makes Gerhard Hardman Such an awesome character is that he also wants to figure out who has committed the crime. Probably my favorite moment with Gerhard Hardman Is when Hercules Poirot and Bouc Are questioning him if he committed the murder and what are his personalities and identity. It is probably the most Interesting scene in the film. The chemistry between him and Kenneth Branagh is still marvelous. Fun fact 4 years later Willem Dafoe would eventually go on to reprises role as the green goblin in Spider-Man no way home. 




Josh Gad plays Hector McQueen In the film and I have to say he is still entertaining and the character. What I like about Hector McQueen is that the film  makes you believe that He has committed the murder but in reality he didn't. I still think that was really interesting how the film within that. My favorite moment is when Hercules Poirot is questioning if he committed the murder and it is  probably the most suspenseful Interrogation scenes in the film. The chemistry between him and Kenneth Branagh is still outstanding. 



Leslie Odom Jr plays Dr. Arbuthnot In the film and I still think he does a terrific job as the character. What I like about Dr Arbuthnot Is that at first he wants to help them find out who committed the murder. But in reality it turned out he did it and the Twist revealed in the film that dr Arbuthnot And the rest of the passengers on the train were the ones responsible for the death of Edward Ratchent Is probably the most shocking twist movie. of 2017 The chemistry between him and Kenneth Branagh is still spectacular. 



The directing by Kenneth Branagh is very interesting because what I like about his directing is that he Doesn't reveal who the murder is until near the end of the film and I think it is still awesome how he did that. I also like how he was able to keep the town consistent because this is a really dark movie because it deals with the concept of a killer on a train. I still think it was really astounding how he did that. 


So in conclusion I still really enjoy this movie. I still think this is one of my favorite movies of 2017 and probably the most underrated movie of 2017 as well. I still  think this is up there with the Knives Out movies as one of my favorite murder mystery films. I still think more people should watch this movie especially if you enjoy Knives Out Movies with Daniel Craig.  I give this movie a 10/10.
