I was a little shocked to see this given a bad rating. Death on the Nile is one of the my most favourite books and compared to the original, this version was FAR more dedicated to the book and the the casting was very good.
HOWEVER! I can understand on some accounts that in certain areas it did appear a little dry. But apart from that it was brilliant!
David Suchet plays a very convincing Poirot and is more suited than the late Peter Ustinov, who in my opinion played Poirot as if he were stern and highly sarcastic.
This was VERY enjoyable!
