Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

It took me a while to realize who the woman was who was cutting up the scenery with her curt remarks and selfish behavior. Gillian I loved you in this, it took me aback because it was so not your previous acting parts. Very clever who done it. Watching over again right now.. Love, Kevin. It.

I'm surprised that Julian Fellows has a credit for this screenplay as the script was littered with language that did not come into use in the UK until decades later. It's bad enough that our language is being eradicated by Americanisms in the present day but this revisionistic assault is adding insult to injury.

One of the most faithful adaptations of a Christie novel I've ever seen. It was well cast, the production was beautiful, and I got the sense that it tried to stay true to the point of the book. It really drove home the way different types of ruthlessness and selfishness express themselves, and how that formed the killer. Who, of course, is not someone you'd suspect.

They say no movie beats reading the original book and in this case it's again a valid point. With a book well written you can use your imagination completely, on how the characters look and what their part is in the mystery. In the movie though you don't get that same sensation. I thought Crooked House was very slow and a bit boring if I have to be honest. I would rather play a game of Cluedo than watching this movie again. It's just more entertaining. The cast wasn't bad though, but the story being so slow they couldn't make this movie better. I do like Agatha Christie's books but her movie adaptions seems not as good to me. And by the way I saw the end coming from far. I'm not sure that would have been the case with the book.
