Everyone has a past. Everyone has a secret. Everyone is a suspect and now for Agatha Christie fans and fans of brilliantly made films, you can step aboard the Orient Express as Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment presents the ultimate case of whodunit when MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS which arrives on Digital Download on 26^th February and on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray^TM and DVD on 5^th March.

Kenneth Branagh directs and takes the role (and the moustache) of the self named ‘Worlds greatest detective’ in this star studded production of one of the worlds most classic novels. With supporting cast including Johnny Depp, Michelle Pfeiffer, Penélope Cruz, Judi Dench. Willem Dafoe, Josh Gad, Daisy Ridley, and Leslie Odom, Jr.. This beautifully stylish, suspense mystery based on the best-selling novel by Agatha Christie, the world’s best-selling author is a treat for film fans like myself. With stunning cinematography, costumes, and locations, Murder On The Orient Express has me hooked from the opening scenes in Jerusalem, to the gorgeous train journey through Europe Kenneth Branagh has directed a film that makes you forget that the film for its most, is set in a train carriage and works wonders with the cameras, including some lengthy camera tracking shots that will make film makers smile with admiration. As Hercule Poirot, Kenneth makes him his own, and whilst we all still love David Suchet, I now declare that Kenneth is a Poirot for what I hope is a long series of films to come. Within minutes I was ‘yep, he is indeed Hercule’ with his insanely unique moustache and OCD ‘quirks’ making up the slight comedic moments in this tale.

Even though some people may be familiar with the novel or previous screen adaptations of Murder On The Orient Express, there is still a lot to love about this revisiting, and watching the film whilst not recalling the story, but watching it with someone who was very familiar with the story and its plot twists. We both adored this film the same amount. In the world of bang bang action movies, treat yourself to a very cinematic film in your home this March.

There is also the announced ‘sequel’ to the film, due out in 2019, which if Murder On The Orient Express is anything to go by, will most definitely be a pleasure to watch and experience.
