Dog’s Movie House: “Murder On The Orient Express” Good Old-Fashioned Whodunnit!
Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog!
Johnny Depp as Ratchett in “Murder On The Orient Express”
You know the saying “they don’t make them like they used to?” Well, in movies for the most part that’s true. With the exception of a few filmmakers out there like Christopher Nolan and, to a lesser extent, Mel Gibson, the era of old-fashioned moviemaking has gone mostly the way of the Dodo. Which is why it’s refreshing to see Kenneth Branagh’s polished version of Agatha Christie’s “Murder On The Orient Express” hit theaters this week. As old-fashioned as they come in all the best ways, this film is an above average update featuring a captivating story, witty banter, and wonderful performances.
