PoorDearRichard . @PoorDearRichard Jan 24 Evil Under the Sun delivers exactly what you’d hope for from an Agatha Christie mystery: a clever whodunit wrapped in comedy, campy drama, and stunning scenery. The cast is a tour de force — Maggie Smith, Roddy McDowall, Jane Birkin, Peter Ustinov, and Diana Rigg — and they all shine, with Smith in particular dazzling with her sharp, witty quips reminiscent of a younger Violet Crawley. The plot moves smoothly, the music and setting add charm, and the unexpected ending keeps the story memorable. This is one of those films I can never stop watching — classic Christie done with style, humor, and just the right touch of theatrical flair. See more Neil P @RT30842889 Jan 24 Wonderful 80s Agatha Christie adaptation. Starry cast, plenty of camp tongue in cheek humour and beautifully shot. Peter Ustinov is a marvellous Poirot. See more KC K @RT80937010 07/29/2025 Ustinov is genius as Poirot. Actors are good to great yet always Med chic entertaining with the classic mix of different personalities all Christie stories have. Watched this many times as a teenager back in the 80s - never grew tired of the sounds, visuals & storyline.

It surprised me, as well as the clever set up, and Poirot's deconstruction of the clues, See more Ben W @Username618 01/10/2025 No option to delete my review. Put the stars in the middle. sorry. Today was a Sunday 16.2.25ce See more Mr P @RT11302800 12/28/2024 80s fashion ruins this adaptation. Just 4 years after Death on the Nile. A lot of the cast look idiotic, distracts from a great story. Silly hairstyles, shoulder pads and lots of plastic bangles. Like a glam rock version of Macbeth. See more Read all reviews
