Movie Preview: Murder on the Orient Express

29 November

So last night I got the chance to attend a movie preview sponsored by Nuffnang, yayyy. Murder on the Orient Express will be released on this 30th of November, but some cinemas will be showing the movie starting from today (29th).

Murder on the Orient Express is a remake of the 1974 classic movie of the same name, based on a novel by Agatha Christie. It follows a Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot, who is investigating the murder of an American tycoon aboard the Orient Express train. (source:

All aboard!

This movie is really like a storybook comes to life! You know that feeling when youre reading a book and you start imagining how the characters would look like; this movie has that. Hercule Poirot's moustache, the female characters' red lipsticks and hairdo, their voices, the vintageness of the props, everything is perfect. I think each cast matches their character perfectly.

If youre a murder mystery type or person, this movie is a must watch. It has a puzzling mystery that will keep you guessing till the end (especially if you've never heard of the story before). If you have read the book, I think youre going to enjoy this movie. The storyline might be slow for some people, but its enjoyable for me. I adore the small things like their costumes and the architecture of the places. I also loved the humour in this movie, honestly some parts are so funny its hard to stop laughing haha. Besides, since Ive been learning French lately (Im a total beginner), its fun to see French being used in this movie. I got excited when I can understand what they're saying without having to read the subtitles hehehe.

My plus one of the night, Frafroo
Overall, I can say that this is a classy remake and definitely worth watching. Its the kind of movie Id love to watch with my soulmate hehe.
