The classic Agatha Christie murder/mystery has seen several adaptations over the year, most notably the 1974 version, but Kenneth Branagh manages to update this in a stylish manner and does so with an outstanding cast. With such a large cast, you feel to want to get to know each character better, but I can't fault casting both well-established (Judi Dench, Willem Dafoe, Michelle Pfeiffer and Penélope Cruz) and fresh face (Daisy Ridley, Leslie Odom Jr. and Josh Gad) talent. The look, the language, the dialogue - all spot on and it will be interesting to see where it goes next.
