1:06 The creator of Poirot, Agatha Christie herself, saw the 1970s original and said that the moustache Poirot had in that was too small, so Kenneth Branagh went overboard just to be sure.
I always know someone in the comments will know and will save me the time XD
impossible Agatha Christie died long before the 70s
She died on 1976...
The moustache was so iconic that it was said it had a personality by itself.
And that's what they did to please her memory? The whole plot is destroyed, showing inaccurate scenes both in the beggining and the ending to make Poirot a giant cliché character which he is not, washing down the plot so it is easier for dumb audiences to understand, including stupid and unnecessary action scenes because Hollywood right, including another stupid racial debate where it doesn't belong and changing a character just for the sake of it, the whole mystery and "the murderer is around us" thing that makes the whole book so awesome putting the plot all around the closed space that is the train is simply scrapped out in the movie... Oh but they got the mustache right!
1:04 he steps in the poop because every thing has to be balanced and straight. In the end of the movie he says he has learned something. He learned that the scale of justice isn't always balanced. The funny thing is after he gets out of the train he ask the driver to straighten his tie.
"Old habits die hard".
OCD
Jules Romijn OCD maybe?
(Edit: There is a reply above mine that says OCD. Well then.)

Took something out of Daisy Ridley's book
There is 12 stab wounds and 12 suspects
The ending "everyone is the murderer"
Me: That's GENIUS
But there were 13 suspects , if you count.
@@sachinrajmuktiyup, if i remember correctly, in the novel Helena didnt stab Cassetti
@@bobbychristian231yep, I literally just finished the book and I'm watching this video to see what people think about the ending and you're right, Helena was the only innocent one in the book, because she actually slept all night as his husband said
@@bobbychristian231she doesn’t stab him in the movie either she gets the Count to do it
"This is what he looked like in the seventies..." Shows clip from 2010
Poirot's Mustache exactly what I wanted to say!
Yeah he seems to think the 70's Orient Express and the Poirot are the same thing.
This!
Phew, thought I was the only one who thought this
Yeah, what the hell? Where's Albert Finney?! I'm a movie buff, and annoying a such a person often is, I still want such details to be correct in any case, mainly to avoid confusing aspiring movie buffs. Or... I have as much OCD as Poirot.
The reason they didn't kill him elsewhere or before because they wanted to do it under circumstances where they all would have an excuse to be present (they're traveling), and could prevent anyone outsider from being there, thus preventing anyone innocent from being suspected. So when Ratchett books a trip on a train, they book all the other places in the same sleeping vagoon (or whatever you call it in English). Unfortunately for them another person does turn up in the last minute and want a place in the train, and that another person happens to be friends with the owner of the train company... and he happens to be a private detective. Fate? Oh well, sometimes you need coincidences to have your desired plot.
Besides all of that there's also the thing that they didn't expect the train to be stuck in the snow so this is why Poirot was assigned to the case and knew for sure that the murderer was still in the train
Eugénie Daaé That is actually what happens in the movie too, but it’s very subtle and isn’t explained outright
It's not a coincidence if you take each Agatha Christie novel separately, it's just how the plot sets up. If you take them as a whole, then Poirot is probably the killer because everywhere he goes, someone dies in an elaborately constructed murder.
Nah, that's just the Detective's Curse. Whenever a person who is known for being able to solve murders, mysteries, and murder mysteries is near, people decide then is the perfect time to stage their crime. It's not that they are causing these murders, it's just that murders and crimes follow them no matter where they go.
Also, the circumstances are often such that only X number of people could have possibly committed the crime. Country house, resort spa, train, boat... Like a boat on the *I'lljustpickariveratrandom* Nile.
It's a testament to Christie's skills that the tropes she established have been used countless times since, to the extent that many people don't know that she was the one to create them. For a long time I had no idea she was the first author to have the detective assemble all the possibly guilty people together before revealing the killer(s).
The balancing act these authors play is constructing a murder elaborate enough to be interesting and be difficult or impossible to guess (Do you give away enough information for the reader to guess the killer? When do you do it?), with believably guilty stories for everyone, but not so fantastical that the audience's suspension of disbelief is broken. It's a similar conundrum to the one 'realistic' spy novel authors face.
buuut tbh he is actually that cartoonish in the books, "mon ami" this and "mon cher" that
jinppreciation how is that cartoonish? Not denying poirot is, but mon ami isn't really a cartoonish thing to say in my opinion
Dude..Agatha said herself people should laugh with poirot, not at him
jinppreciation
Parce qu'il est Belge
"I'm the greatest detective in the world" 👣👣💩💩
took me a few seconds to get it but when i did I laughed haha
The moustache is fine, just read the damm book and you will see.
But the accent is wrong, read the damn book
Adamast sorry I couldn't understand what you said because your accent is terrible.
hahaha
Oh my... BURNS!!!
Wtf 😂😂😂😂😂
As a fan of Agatha Christy's work, and having not read the book, I was so excited to see this movie and I wasn't disappointed. Phenomenal movie, cast, shots and direction.
Just to add, the personnality of Poirot is supposed to be a Belgian, classy perfectionist. Meticulous and borderline obsessed. And the mustache stuff... I honestly liked it.
I am so hyped to see the sequel.
Murder on the Nile is one hella rollercoaster.
About to start The Crooked House.
if you're a big fan you should probably read the book , because honestly if you do the movie will look like absolute garbage, they pretty much wiped out all of the important details that would guide you as a viewer or in the case of the book a reader to try and discover even find out who the murderer was all for the sake to add a bit of action preventing the movie to be "boring" for the majority of the viewers , i had to sit and torture myself to watch it completely hoping that a single scene would be accurate but oh well was i disapointed
You’re about to get your wish as the sequel is out hope you enjoy it!
*Death* on the Nile
Such a fan, yet you don't know it's Death on the Nile, not Murder on the Nile?
Brannaghs Death on the Nile was very disappointing. More Hollywood garbage
because you didn’t say it I will,
“listennnn”
The second you said 12 stab wounds then 12 other passengers... I was like ok it’s all of them.
In the book he has 15 stabs
@@nevyzzz No it’s still 12 in the book because of Colonel Arbuthnot’s suggestion about the significance the number twelve has in regards to a jury, justice, etc. In the book there were 13 suspects, but one [SPOILER] Suspect didn’t actually commit the crime with the rest of them
@@damudkip2115 rlly?
dont care
@@nevyzzz Good for you. Glad you’ve found your truth
@@nevyzzz Then why bother spreading false information? Get a life 🤣
I actually liked this movie. I was intrigued the whole time, the costume/production design was great, the cinematography is beautiful, the acting is fantastic, etc. I can't wait for "Death On the Nile".
I enjoyed this movie despite its flaws. Death on the Nile was awful garbage. Dreadful
He needs to step in the poop with his other shoe because he has severe OCD.
In the books he is very fussy about being clean, brushing his clothes etc. He would have immediately cleaned his shoe, definitely would not have stepped in shit a second time.
I died laughing every time he said “the greatest detective in the world” 😂
In the book he does not ever say that though
@@sarthaks5 he did.
@@maggie198333 when?
@@secrectpirate3096 In The Mystery of the Blue Train
this was actually one of my favourite movies of the year
Jay Allen have you seen the 70's version because i recommend you give them a try (also the newer ones)
My favorite of the year & one of my all-time favorites.
@@julesspits9661 I own the original Orient Express and all the sequels with Peter Ustinov. I also own the complete Margret Rutherford Miss Marple.
It was enjoyable despite all the awful flaws in the filmmaking. Their sequel on the Nile was dreadful garbage
The actor you think is Esteban Julio Ricardo Montoya Dela Rosa Ramirez is actually a Dutchactor named Marwan Kenzari!

@@alanaadonis6196 thank you!
I'm a kid and I read the book and watched the 70's adaptation thank you very much.
MillyTheDinosaur 70 yrs old kid?
Tupak Ray I know that was a joke but you guys always underestimate kids. Yes, some kids still like reading. Yes, some kids go play outside. And yes, some kids like oldie stuff like movies, fashion, etc.
Tupak Ray the original movie made in the 70s.
would you like a cookie
I read the book too, when I was a middle schooler
Everyone should watch the david suchet poirot adaptations especially the abc murders
The reason the detective placed his other foot on the poop and his intence habit of 'balancing' things actually has a very deep meaning. Its justice yall~
Poirot of the books would definitely have cleaned his shoe immediately. No chance he would have stepped in poop a second time. He was obsessive about being clean, brushing his clothes etc
The flashback video you showed is not albert finney (74), it is Poirot by David Suchet, which was done in 2010).
THANK YOU! I was practically yelling at my computer when that came on! Someone who knows at last!
Yes! he started his role as Hercule Poirot in 1989.
It's a bloody good film. The production quality alone is amazing. Watch it. You'll love it.
Let Me Explain the least you could have done is read the wiki page for the book and look at Agatha Christie's Poirot which was around for over 20 years. David Suchet is the best Poirot to date and perhaps forever. Yes. Poirot is the greatest detective in the world.
I agree very much!!
The moustache was actually something extremely accurate to the book. It was the first description of his, actually. So actually this movie might be more accurate
It was inaccurate with much of the content from the book.
@@columkenn true, but I spek only for moustache 🥸
1) Imagine Dragons is great.
2) Branagh did a fantastic job at both directing and acting in this film.
“My fellow solders would tell I’m a terrible shot” , kills Hamilton 3 seconds later, nearly kills Hercule... yeah I totaly believe in that Burr. totaly.
I’m a huge fan of the original film and I adore Agatha Christie’s novels and plays, but I was so afraid of modern directors going a bit too crazy in this film. I guess I was right in some areas.
This movie was really good in my opinion. It showed how many people can be affected by one death. I would highly suggest it, but unfortunately you already know the ending .
In the books Agatha describes Poirot as a very cartoonish character. I think it’s good that his character sticks to the book. I never really liked the orient express but I love the other books. You should review Agatha Christie’s BBC mini series. Any of them.
This version was an absolute butchery of the story. Hercule did not just choose to let them go easy like, he let them go because the murder on the Orient Express was the first case that challenged him on an existential level pitting his religious faith against the concept of justice that he held with extremely high regard. Hercule also is not supposed to be a narcissist, he would never call himself "the world's greatest detective". This modern remake completely removed ALL the nuance from the character and story completely reducing it down to a Hollywood "Find the bad guy, but wait what a twist" cash grab.
I agree with you. This hercule poirot is quite different with the book version. I personally love the book version and the David Suchet version. But anyway, Hercule Poirot is indeed a narcissist and have been known to called himself the greatest detective in the world.
Right, and with the help of your comment, the final book of Poirot makes even more sense now..
I wont spoil it for y'all.. and yes, I said book, although David Suchet reprieved his role in the TV adaptation
Bravo 👏🏼
That mustache is amazing!!!!!!
Rajat Basak oh ya
Mon ‘ami It’s actually a great movie...there is a difference between explaining the movie and making fun of it.
the books are incroyable. Agatha Christie is the world’s best selling author, n’est-ce pas? Selling over 2 billion copies. This is only one of her stories. I don’t see you selling that many books :)
Affaire classée!
I actually like quite a few shots in this movie, including but not limited to the long shot in the beginning, and not limited to the long shots. I think what I commemorate the most is the different approach it took, given the fact that other adaptions have been made before, such as the long shots of all the characters, the bird's eye view that explains the structure of the train rooms, etc. And there was a "The Last Supper" shot right before Kenneth Branagh confronted the killers, which was a bit cliche but still quite grand and memorable against the tunnel and the snowstorm, especailly on big screen.
There were 13 suspects in the book. One of them, a duchess or something like that, who was the younger sister of the kidnapped girl, did not stab casseti
but she was guilty as she hid the knife in her dress thinking she would not be searched
Well they weren’t expecting the greatest detective in the world to be on the train. Hercules got on the train at the last second plus he has to TELL everybody he’s a detective after the murder. Implying they didn’t know and it was just very bad luck.
Obviously you don't have actual OCD. :p re-stepping on shite in the street is minor compared to those who have it really bad. Crippling OCD can have people go through hours of rituals for pointless worries.
You nailed it!
I originally didn't know this was coming out at the time but I still caught it and I was impressed with this movie. I enjoyed Daisy Ridley in this one honestly and she was the reason I went to see it🤣🤣
Same 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣💀💀
When I watched this movie, I figured it out really fast without reading the book or watching the original. Twelve stab wounds, twelve suspects, when he’s reading the letters if you look closely one of them says “you can’t escape US”. A good movie tho.
Albert Finney played Poirot in the 74 film, not the other actor you kept showing.
Dave Starsign 2010 TV movie
I watched the original movie a couple years ago and honestly don’t remember a thing about it aside from who the murderer was. Kinda wish I’d forgotten that part so I could watch like the first time again here because I thought the stylistic decisions, cinematography, and cast made this a much more interesting film.
The end teaser for "Death On The Nile" was bogus. The murders happen when Poirot was in Egypt on the riverboat, not before, as the ending of "Murder On The Orient Express" implies.
Lol that was funny when he said the Esteban 's long name
Sara Williams but he forgot the Montoya
It’s not even him. I looked it up on IMDb.
Right lol. He Reminds me of the Latina news reporter on the show Married with Children when he said it lol
"The greatest detective in the world" kills me everytime lmao
*"The Greatest Detective In The World"*
I think the first 30 mins of the original movie explained the kidnapping of the Armstrong kid. That made the revelation cooler towards the end. But of course, this movie came at a different generation that did not grow up with those books so they had to use the opening scene to show how cool Hercule really was.
Once again Kenneth Branagh plays that greatest of all characters, the center of his own universe, nudge nudge, wink wink - Gilderoy Lockhart.
Oh yeah the famous Hercule Poirot chasing and beating people, threatening the suspects and the police with a pistol. All those aspects of the character that he is known for.
Irony:
*Knows Aaron Burr...
*Doesn't know David Suchet..
It took me four days to watch every video on this channel and I’m hungry for more
Dude are you Ezra Miller?
You freakin sound like him 🤨
So I read the book when I was young, Agatha Christy is hands down my favorite author and I did saw the new movie and I liked it for the most part the only thing that bothered me was the casting of Hercule Poariot , this is not what he was described as in the books
The Poirot in the original novel has a big moustache so...
"...ratshit yes his name is ratshit" 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I actually loved this movie. It was like Clue on a train with famous superhero’s, Star Wars Characters And Disney sidekicks. Oh and a pirate
It was really an enjoyable film. I hope they do make the sequel .
The version with David Suchet came out in 2010. Jessica Chastain was born until the sometime in the 70’s.
“The Orient Express makes United Airlines looks less bad”, funny but highly disagreeable.( Seriously, the actual Orient Express is GORGEOUS)
This is one of my favorite novels and the 1974 version starring Albert Finney is one of my favorite movies, which is NOT the one you have screenshots of in this video.
I honestly did not care for Kenneth Branagh as Poirot. David Suchet is the best. He really did his homework for the role and was Poirot for 25 years. He literally did every short story and novel by Agatha Cristie.
Burr: becomes Amstrong’s right hand man bc Washington is already taken
0:05 WRONG SIR
Won’t lie, the costumes were the best part!!!!!
I started watching this video then I was like let me go watch the movie, while I did I thought oh he's definitely making that Esteban joke, but then the my uncle joke got me. Good one!
Dude David Suchet didn't do Murder on the Orient Express in the 70s. That was Albert Finney. Suchet's version is from 2010.
Now I can't stop looking at his mustache.
“Ratchett.” Something tells me Agatha Christie stories weren’t always meant to be serious.
Actually, he came off the train in Slavonski Brod, in that time called Brod na Savi, which is the city in the East Croatia which is the slavic country in the Southeast Europe. Back then Croatia was the part of Austro-Hungarian Empire( The Dual Monarchy) which fell apart soon after the WW1 had ended in 1918.
I can't believe you didn't do a Batman joke when you introduced Alfred the butler.
many young audiences watched David Suchet 's Orient Express (2010) tho...
Doris Thatcher? "I coulda given you the tour... I've been round the station a few times."
I’m 15 and I loved the book and the film
Now I get it how all of them were connected..
I didn't really hear when I was watching the movie haha.
Could you please add a warning for the flashing in this video for people with photosensitivity please? Thank you in advance!
The Arron Burr.. Sir had me wheezing and spitting out my water
It's called OCD. This is expanded on in the book series
A good twist would’ve been if everyone had done it.
Oh.
Wait
"Eric Yule is probably the greatest detective in the world because he says" " I am probably the greatest detective in the world"
idk why but that is hilarious to me💀
His moustache was explained in Death on the Nile
I was going to say
Video title: Murder on the Orient Express *(2019)*
*Published on Nov 20, 2017*
Hmmmm...What?
Dude literally has a durag for his mustache.
Agatha Christie's books still sell four million copies a year, 40 years after she died, someone is still reading XD
I don’t know if you guys know this but Hercules is supposed be a narcissist
Aaron Burr(sir).. Right hand man. He finally got to be someone's right hand man! Good for him!
Johnny play another great villian role was truly epic
"Don't let your hammer pull you off." - Korg 🤣
2:56 that depends who's asking?
Oh well sure sir
I'm Alexander Hamilton
I'm at your service sir
I have been looking for you
I read the book it’s actually really good
I don't know if you're even gonna read this at some point but I would LOVE to see a Future Recap/Review of the Future Movie sequel: Death on The Nile coming out later 2021 or so.
Oh and btw, this version of hercule poirot is too macho. Hercule Poirot will never chase after anyone or fight physically with anybody. And the shit stepping thing will irritated him beyond compare and he definitely won't step his other foot in the shit just to make it balance.
The version with David Suchet as Poirot is from 2010.
If you read the book, Hercule Poirot is incredibly modest, I hate that they screwed this up so bad.
there are no and i mean NO MOUNTAINS, hills or anything similar between vinkovci and slavonski brod and i cannot believe they couldnt consult a map before making this movie i am so ANGRY BECAUSE its one of the few movies set in croatia and they messed it up
Korina Kucinic I thought it was along the Alps.
Hi, just finished Death on Nile. Mask in coupe is explained
I liked the ending quote about good people, bad people and them , or however it went.
As you can see the murder happens around Vinkovci/ Slavonski Brod and the movie shows those small towns being in the highest mountains in the world even tho Vinkovci and Slavonski Brod are known for being in the plains. Big mistake if you ask me but no one else cares
Well, I thought his friend, Bouc, got all these people who were related to the case to board his train and then he killed the johnny depp character so that Piorot could then investigate and he could watch him do so since he said earliar he doesn't know how he does it, and he "doesn't care" .I thought this was just a "fun" thing for him to do with his time.. but the twist was amazing, great movie indeed
Poirots character is written in a cartoonish way on purpose, watch the ABC Murders (2018) and youll realise how weird it is when hes realistic
I loved the movie, but the rest of my family fell asleep more than once
but can we all agree that the best part of this movie was Hadley Fraser's two second cameo
In the movie Hercule is more like Sherlock.
Which is excruciating for Hercule fans given that he mocks Sherlock in the novels
This is one of the best videos I've ever stumbled across
