Сынок знаешь, ты тоже вот-вот кудесником станешь.
A new Poirot movie starts with stache being too flamboyant, some bad joke(?) trying to characterize the protagonist as ???? and an “ow the edge” line, set up only to be shattered later, instead of using it as a stylistic choice for him.
This is my first orient express and it is just fine. A really nice classic murder mystery with no outstanding pieces (outside of this double stache) good or bad — everything inside the train is just right.
I’m barely familiar with the source material, but David Suchet’s Poirot is kind of outstanding in that field. Unlike the rest of the detectives, he is fat and poorly bald, but feels and positions himself as the most pretty male in the vicinity. Meanwhile Kenneth Branagh’s Poirot have stature, piercing blue eyes and imposing hairdo. It’s hard to distinguish him from Sherlocks or just any noir Detective with fedora. So it seems Branagh decided to overcompensate that with his overkill double-decker stache.
