Death on the Nile -Hercule Poirot's New Case

 Death on Nile (2022) is a crime detective story based on Agatha Christie's novel. After Murder on the Orient Express, Hercule Poirot is back with an another huge case. As usual, another Agatha Christie's WHODUNIT technique's adaptation.



Linnet (Gal Gadot) is murdered at the bank of Nile and Hercule Poirot comes to investigate the murder. As usual, there are several possibilities for all the characters as the murderer. Each and every character in this movie has their reasons to kill Linnet. Greedy mother, Jealousy friend, greedy cousin etc., have their reasons to kill rich and beautiful Gal Gadot.

Kenneth Branagh, once again lives as Hercule Poirot. Apart from Gal Gadot and Emma Mackey, other characters are not written in an indepth manner so the audiences are unable to connect with the film. The cinematography is excellent and the background settings are chilling for our eyes.



Sometimes the movie is lagging and it is very slow but it is engaged due to the investigation scene. With the limited scenes, limited characters and the given budget, the quality of movie is good and it is watchable. Overall, the movie is satisfied if you are a fan of Agatha Christie and it is partially satisfied if you are an average audience. It is unfair to compare with Murder on the Orient Express.

IMDB 6.4/10

Sharkz Scale 5/10
