A 3rd shared, “Agatha Christie at her very best! Anything with Glenn Close is absolutely worth watching, but here a fantastic ensemble cast, led by Max Irons — whom I find to be sublime, a perfect cinematic leading man, who can act with the hair on the back of his neck, a subtle flutter of the fingers, a slightly sloppy collar — yet never oversteps the limits of exquisite thespian taste — delivers a rollicking, chilling, disturbing, distressing, fascinating psychological study of a disturbed family. Think ‘Five Little Pigs’ meets ‘Downton Abbey,’ sort of.”
