The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, in which yet another of Poirot's retirements is interrupted with murder, is an admirable adaptation of a nearly unfilmable plot. Lord Edgeware Dies offers the pleasing combination of murder, theater folk, and a glimpse of a besotted Poirot. Evil Under the Sun features cold-blooded murder at a sunny health resort, and Murder in Mesopotamia doubles the fun by dropping all the intrigue into an archaeological dig. Each mystery is lovingly crafted with clever direction, a clear fondness for Christie's work, and painstakingly accurate period settings. Suchet and Hugh Fraser (as Captain Hastings) make a marvelous pair, capturing both the easy companionship and the frequent bickering of true friendship. Special DVD features include an index of all the Hercule Poirot stories and biographies of Agatha Christie and David Suchet. --Ali Davis Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Superb PoirotMost people seem to agree that David Suchet is fabulous as Hercule Poirot. He is indeed. Including the humorous side to this detective. You will see some of the humor as well as the more serious side of Poirot. I only wish that some of the producers had decided to expand on Christie. Namely, Cat Among the Pigeons and The Third Girl. Christie wrote a lot of books and there are many fine actors to choose from. I enjoyed all of these mysteries. Rating: - classic mystery storiesexcellent stories, beautifully shot and directed. very nice color and audio quality. very faithful to the original agatha christie novels. a must buy for poirot fans. can't go wrong.
