Maalaistalon viikonlopunvietto saa epämiellyttävän käänteen, kun roolipelin lavastettu murha saa realistiset puitteet. Pääepäiltyjen lisäksi kaikilla paikallaolijoilla tuntuisi olevan motiivi uhrin murhaamiseksi. (SF Film Fin.)

An excellent demonstration of the old English detective school. The typical model with a country house and an aristocratic family who gets involved in the murder of the husband of one of her members. We have seen the pattern a few times where suspicion points to everyone and the killer can only be the one who's the only one standing outside, but as before, it works wonderfully. Even more than usual, Poirot is driven by a desire to prove that his brain has no competition. Langton's film explores to some extent the conflict between detective logic and creative thinking. And as usual, David Suchet gives a pedantically full performance, which is enhanced by the excellent atmosphere of the case and the emotional ending.

One of those slightly weaker parts that are still immensely above average. A slightly different storytelling style is chosen, and the story tries to be a bit more action-packed, interesting, and creative towards the end, and it succeeds to some extent, although not perfectly. It's like something is slightly escaping the viewer's attention. A very long introduction, which may be slightly detrimental.
