The adventures of Hercules Poirot play on the texture of perception, location and deduction while still creating both a sense of time and tension. While the last two films directed and starring Kenneth Branagh understood their task, the style applied to "A Haunting In Venice' (enhanced for IMAX) really uses the approach as an exercise but also a classical progression of how such a film is done.

The aspect of a murder mystery with a bit of chicanery is always an interesting premise. ”See How They Run” is an interesting amalgamation because it almost thinks like a Wes Anderson movie and has some of its actors and yet is its own separate beast (and not quite the same).
