15 thoughts on Death on the Nile SPOILERS

I saw my first movie in theaters since the pandemic and wanted to write a bit about it.

  1. I did not think it was Gal Gadot who died
  2. I definitely thought I had figured out the crime several times (I did eventually but only after several wrong guesses)
  3. I loved the costumes
  4. Poirot's mustache was ridiculous
  5. It was super convenient (and odd) that the staff of the boat left every night
  6. Also, those poor staff who had to deal with five deaths at their place of business and had to carry two of the bodies around like it was a normal part of their job
  7. It did take a while to get to a death
  8. Gotta love the secret lesbian reveal
  9. I wonder if in the original book there were Black characters (I'm not at all complaining that they were in the movie, I'm just curious about the source material)
  10. Sometimes the special effects just weren't good enough
  11. There was more music in it than I thought there would be
  12. I'm not sure the opening scene of Poirot during the war was necessary
  13. There sure were a lot of guns for a wedding party
  14. I want to see Murder on the Orient Express now
  15. I hope there are more Poirot movies--they're fun
