Agatha and the Midnight Murders (2020)
Dreadful
Anachronistic dialogue (e.g. "Never rub another man's rhubarb" from Batman (1989)), poor acting and accents, ridiculous plot twists and character changes, an unbelievable background - Agatha Christie selling a manuscript to a gangster businessman because she's bankrupt - and, finally, Agatha herself finishing off by finishing someone off. I remember seeing plays in the 70s which were 'provocative' and had wild 'modern' dialogue and people sneering at other people to show dominance. These stories also did not belong in the real world. Swearing isn't clever, funny, strong, necessary or shocking. Basically unbelievable characters in an unbelievable plot saying unbelievable things.
Stage a Christie story in modern, or wartime, setting and you'd potentially have a classic. Putting Christie in this is an insult to fans and family.
If you have an opportunity to see this, miss it.
