Title: What happened?
Review: I must say I agree with all the other viewers who dislike this adaptation. It is not how Agatha Christie envisioned it in her novel and I did not care for the dark, brooding Poirot in this production. David Suchet is my favorite Poirot but I prefer the Albert Finney version of Murder on the Orient Express because at least the Poirot in that production is not angry and dark. I love a sense of comedic release added to murder mysteries because it lessens the tension at the right times but there was no comedy in this at all. I would rather see Poirot as the ingenious character that he is instead of this dark man he is portrayed as here. I wonder how Suchet felt with such a production?
