It’s not all as depressing as that sounds there are hints of the humour and vanity that have made Poirot so entertaining in the past, and a few flashes of deductive reasoning that make us think that the famed abilities are still intact. Poirot is old and lonely, played with a tired watchfulness by John Malkovich. Except, once again, a bit of deft adapting has brought a new perspective to a story that many might already think of as one of the strongest of the Suchet Poirots. ![]()
