Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Four beautifully made mysteries comprise this boxed-set collection of Agatha Christie classics, in which David Suchet perfectly captures the brilliant detective Hercule Poirot. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, in which yet another of Poirot's retirements is interrupted with murder, is an admirable adaptation of a nearly unfilmable plot. Lord Edgeware Dies offers the pleasing combination of murder, theater folk, and a glimpse of a besotted Poirot. Evil Under the Sun features cold-blooded murder at a sunny health resort, and Murder in Mesopotamia doubles the fun by dropping all the intrigue into an archaeological dig. Each mystery is lovingly crafted with clever direction, a clear fondness for Christie's work, and painstakingly accurate period settings. Suchet and Hugh Fraser (as Captain Hastings) make a marvelous pair, capturing both the easy companionship and the frequent bickering of true friendship. Special DVD features include an index of all the Hercule Poirot stories and biographies of Agatha Christie and David Suchet. --Ali Davis
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - Superb Poirot
Most people seem to agree that David Suchet
is fabulous as Hercule Poirot. He is indeed.
Including the humorous side to this detective.
You will see some of the humor as well as the more
serious side of Poirot. I only wish that some of the
producers had decided to expand on Christie. Namely,
Cat Among the Pigeons and The Third Girl. Christie wrote a lot
of books and there are many fine actors to choose from.
I enjoyed all of these mysteries.
