Atom User Reviews for Death on the Nile
Don’t waste your money on this flick … I’m sure Agatha Christie is turning over in her grave at how they’ve bastardized her story - go buy/rent the original movie version; it’s a better value for your dollar.
First half was hella slow. The ending was kinda predictable, but ended up being interesting as you watch it unfold.
The last 30 mins were entertaining
Gal Gadot = 😌
Great cast does Agatha Christie justice! Expert directing by Brannagh. Highly recommend!
Gal Gadot is truly a Wonder Woman, she will make even the most loyal of men leave their significant other
I loved it
totally unbelievable, time/place/history= nothing matched. attempts to be too woke distracted from the film, the we scenes were amazing and everything went down hill from there.
Enjoyed the backstory to Poirot's mustache.
boring
Horrible
I’d give it 0 if I could.
movie was predictable but not horrible
Boring and super slow and nothing to see. Worse than house of gucci
Great movie but please leave your kids at home 👍🏼
Very visually pleasing
Great movie! Must see, perfect ending.
The movie had a great start and a great plot. Just wish they wouldn’t have rushed the ending.
Great film. I hope the director continues to make films using Agatha Christie books
Thoroughly enjoying!
It was good but kinda predictable
Plot wasn't hard to figure out. Movie was good not great.
I enjoyed the cast but it wad a bit predictable
I don’t know if half of the movie was English. Sorry.
a little slow but alright
All around a solid entertaining film.
The killer was obvious
First of all, I don't think anyone needed an origin story for Poirot's mustache. The explanation makes very little sense, and adds nothing to the movie. Personally I felt the movie started very slowly and the first third was a little boring. The plot was very Poirot,…
Cinematically beautiful! We just figured it out 5 minutes in… still loved it though
Fun but predictable
Beautifully shot scenes whenever they are at beautiful locations … though it wasn’t the movie I thought it’d be. It was a one time watch for me.
I liked it. I’m not sure which one I liked better: This one or Murder on The Orient Express…it was great seeing T. Bateman again. If you enjoyed MTOE then you will surely like this one as well. Both great rainy day movies that you can watch more than once.
Really good movie
Everything about the movie was so good
The effects aren't the best, but I liked the rest of it a lot
Great date night movie. a little bit predictable if you're paying attention.
Don’t waste your time
choppy - and slow developing - but somewhat interesting beginning. characters eventually pieces together
Beautiful cinematography
Good movie, felt as if it should have been longer the ending felt like it should have been the middle. The ending was very abrupt. Gives the vibes of Clue.
Was a great movie from beginning to end. The scenes will have you on the edge of your seat. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone
It was slow getting into the movie, and once you got into the action the movie moved fairly quick. Overall, it was still a good movie and my fiancé and I enjoyed seeing it!
A good movie that will keep you guessing till the end. Murder on the Orient Express was better though.
Started slow but then picked up when the first kill happened and then settled down at a nice pace. A great whodunnit
Greatness has been mastered again!
Love the cast. Great sound, and Egypt, well done with the period.
Keeps you engaged! Great second movie after Murder on the Orient Express. Love the cast
Agatha Christie omg 😱 loved it
Fun movie!
The cinematography was worth seeing it at the theater.
Metacritic
Flashy enough for pantomime but lacking the sense of fun, the rest of the film follows Branagh’s journey into dull excess, with Christie’s cracking whodunnit deafened by the camerawork and deadened by lazy writing.
I liked Death on the Nile a fair bit more than Branagh’s previous Christie film, partly because it’s a less predictable and schematic narrative to begin with, and partly because Branagh the actor has a way of outfoxing his own pedestrian direction.
As it is, this “Death on the Nile,” for too long an affected and strained entertainment lacking any sense of place, floats well downstream from more bracingly constructed whodunits.
