A Haunting in Venice

Entertainment at best

Not Poirot Not at all. This pathetic imitation is to be avoided at all costs. It's not Poirot in story or character.

As atuações são ótimas, dirigidas na medida. A fotografia é belíssima. O roteiro inspirado em Agatha Christie dá um frescor a sua novela datada. Mas ainda assim, o filme não emociona, e é um tanto óbvio se você for atento como Poirot.

The haunting In Venice was a nice spookie watch that brought a sence of thrill overall would recommend to watch it again and again

This is one of the worst films I've seen in a long time. All star cast, beautiful setting but the scary side of the film was so overdone that at times I was wondering if it was a comedy (and I'm someone who is easily frightened by load bangs etc.). The very slow start to the film, unbelievable characters and the incessant rain made it depressing and unappealing and Hercule's accent had not improved since his other appearances in Branagh movies. We were thinking of leaving after the first 15 minutes but decided that it would probably get better; should have gone with our gut instinct.

A steady improvement over the previous 2 installments of Kenneth Branagh’s series of Agatha Christie adaptations. The tone is more consistent and Kenneth Branagh’s acting is more subdued. The rest of the cast is pretty solid, with special shoutouts to Michelle Yeoh and Tina Fey. The premise of introducing a supernatural element to the classic detective murder mystery noir is a brilliant concept. It throws a wrench into the typical conventions of murder mystery format. The dark lighting, sharp cinematography, and gothic venetian setting compliment the genuinely eerie narrative. You genuinely can’t tell at times if it’s all a hoax or if there’s legitimately something paranormal pulling all the strings. The final resolution was cleverly supported by a pretty shocking twist that was subtly foreshadowed throughout the whole movie. The door is slightly left open with just enough ambiguity at the end to leave it up to the audience whether there was any supernatural presence in the first place. It’s a good Halloween mystery and it makes me excited for future adaptations of Agatha Christie’s novels.

3.5 stars; I expected an Agatha Christie mystery, but instead got a Halloween Fright Night spooky, turn-out-the-lights scare-athon. I don't read reviews before watching a movie. I'll probably watch it again next Halloween when it's more appropriate. However, I did enjoy the 'Agatha' twist ending.

I just watched A Haunting in Venice on prime. So good. It had mystery, intrigue, twists and turns, jump scares, and it all tied together. Best of all? I did not see any part of the movie coming. Highly recommend.

A must-see for all whodunit fans. The acting, direction, cinematography, all of it is top-shelf. A quality production.

The plot was great at keeping your attention, the cinematography was really nicely framed to with the enough artistic ones to make me impressed without feeling too “artistic”. Overall just a good well rounded movie.
