Poirot is older now, and mostly solo in solving his crimes, without his previous sidekicks Hastings and Japp. Yet the world-weary Suchet is as compelling as ever to watch, surrounded by the decadent rich who seem to find murder an easy solution to life's inconveniences. The Mystery of the Blue Train, for instance, features a young, and suddenly very dead, heiress, with a dissolute husband, an overprotective father (a fabulously blustery Elliott Gould), greedy cousins, and all sorts of scheming money-owing hangers-on--all cocooned and coddled on a luxury train on the French Riviera. Indeed, one of the many pleasures of this collection is its very high production values; sets, costumes, and locations are detailed and opulently believable. (Though one annoying tic from the films' TV roots inexplicably remains: some 'naughty' words, like the 'God' in 'God-damned,' are edited out; surely we home viewers could handle a teensy bit of upper-crust rough talk?) The supporting casts are rich and varied, and the suspects deliciously numerous. And at the center of it all is the ever-refined, driven Poirot, who will not rest until the evil-doers are exposed. Extras include biographies of Agatha Christie and of David Suchet. --A.T.

Rating - Poirot I've enjoyed reading Agatha Christie mysteries since I was a teenager. I have also enjoyed movie adaptations of her stories, but David Suchet is the best Poirot I've seen. He fits my mental picture of Poirot exactly. Rating - Disappointing Episodes in this Poirot collection have been unnecessarily padded, to the extent that they become both boring and baffling, and it is difficult to follow the plot. Intrigued by The Mystery of the Blue Train, I purchased the Kindle edition of the book. The print version is better. It makes more sense. Even if you do not know who did it, it is easier to follow the plot. And the plot itself is more intriguing. Many liberties taken in the adaptation conspire to make it an unsuccessful one. The same applies to the remaining episodes ... Read More Rating - A Pleasing Poirot An obviously more world-weary Poirot is still solving intricate mysteries by marshalling the 'little gray cells' Although I miss Hastings and Japp and 'Mees Lee-mone', Poirot is Poirot, and as enchanting as ever. This is no Midsomer Murders', of course, with blood spewing from ghastly wounds... but it's still a happy way to spend a rainy afternoon. see more reviews See all movies starring Agatha Christie's Poirot
