Critic Reviews:
- " Agatha Christie's 1934 Hercule Poirot novel has been filmed for the first time in a bygone film style as it seems to be some treasure out of a time capsule. " – Variety Staff
- " [A] terrifically entertaining super-valentine to a kind of whodunit that may well be one of the last fixed points in our inflationary universe. " – Vincent Canby
- " To paraphrase Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons, this is the: Best… Agatha… Christie… Adaptation… Ever. " – Ian Nathan
