What it necessary to remake the old-time 1974 classic once more? What for? Just to have an excuse to bombard the spectator with dreadful CGI effects you can spot a mile away, terrible acting and a total retelling of the story to conform with the rules of political correctness? This is a piece of garbage totally unworthy of Brannagh's talent. I digested some fifteen minutes of it and I had enough. It was an infamous ending to an otherwise great Agatha Christie's afternoon-evening session with "Evil under the sun" and "Death on the Nile" and UIstinov as his best. Fortunately today will be the good old Orient Express with Finney and all the classy top-noch cast, to wash away and forget that turd of last night.
