Murder on the Orient Express

After the legendary Orient Express luxury train leaves Istanbul in 1934 and an un savory child killer (Johnny Depp) is found murdered in this love-it-or-hate-it, well-acted, unevenly paced, dialogue-heavy, thought-provoking, 114-minute remake of 1974 classic film based on Agatha Christie's 1934 mystery novel and highlighted by gorgeous cinematography and striking period wardrobe, the famous, meticulous, mustache-sporting detective Hercule Poirot (Kenneth Branagh) begins to investigate the murder and to interview possible suspects (Judi Dench, Derek Jacobi, Michelle Pfeiffer, Penélope Cruz, Willem Dafoe, Josh Gad, Lucy Boynton, Daisy Ridley, Leslie Odom Jr., Tom Bateman, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Sergei Polunin, and Ziad Abaza) while onboard the stalled train in an attempt to deduce who stabbed the victim to death.
