Agatha Christie's Poirot plot

When the Germans invaded Belgium in 1914, the civilian population was hit hard. Many Belgian citizens flee to the neutral Netherlands or to England. One of them is Hercule Poirot, a former police officer. Poirot is lovingly cared for at Styles St. Mary in England and develops an affection for his new homeland. After the war, he settles as a private detective in London, in a flat in Whitehaven Mansions. He teams up with former British Army officer Captain Arthur Hastings and his secretary Miss Lemon.

I find "Murder on the Orient Express" a disappointing episode. Poirot (David Suchet), especially at the beginning, seems absent-minded, almost washed-out. He improves later on, but never reaches the level of previous episodes.

As the ending approaches, it turns out a significant religious component has been added to the story. A rather unexpected development, which comes across as moralistic and is never convincing. Agatha Christie herself, incidentally, always steered clear of such topics in her books.

Expectations were high, but this episode is certainly no better than other film adaptations of the famous story...
