Sad Cypress (2003) (S09E02) 

English I'm going through an Agatha phase. I've read so many of her books that it wasn't that hard to guess what it was all about. Still very engagingly made, the acting is already a classic in the Poirot saga. So if you're in the mood for that ridiculous little Belgian man, why not check out Sad Cypress. A better 3 stars. ()

Murder on the Orient Express (2010) (S12E03) 

English Poirot can be seen here as a broken man. A MAN. His grey brain cells still work, but that unshakable faith of his with which he judges all criminals has been shattered, which is why this treatment is the best of all for me, not to mention that it surpasses even the book. Very successful, not to mention a perfect plot and an excellent climax. And of course great performances, because without them it would have been half-hearted. Even though I know Murder on the Orient Express like the back of my hand, I watched it slowly with the feeling that I had absolutely no idea what was going to happen – I just genuinely enjoyed it. ()
