Agatha Christie’s Poirot: Series 13 Review

image host

I’ve written about these Poirot movies starring David Suchet before. This is the very last set, containing the very last films with the actor. Nothing went wrong, the actor is very much alive and working (though not as much as he used to – he is 78 after all) nor did the series get cancelled. They simply filmed every Hercule Poirot story Agatha Christie ever wrote. That’s astonishing. You can literally now read every story and then turn on a pretty good adaptation of it.

Poirot: Series 9

poirot series 9 blu-ray

I love a good cozy television mystery. There is something comforting about sitting down on the couch and watching a smart detective solve a murder week after week, episode after episode.

I’m not actually the biggest Agatha Christie fan, at least not in terms of actually reading her actual books. But I do enjoy many of the films and television series that have been based upon her works, and Poirot, the BBC series starring David Suchet is one of the best.

Suchet so perfectly embodies the Belgian detective I find it difficult watching anybody else play the role now I’m pretty sure Series 9 was the first time I really sat down and watched this series. It was definitely the first time I ever reviewed one (I’ve reviewed a few others since then.)
