The film is an adaptation of the book, which has the same title, that was written by Agatha Christie in 1934. This story has multiple adaptations including another film that was released in 1974.
The plot starts with Hercule Poriot, who is a famous detector, he receives a telegram prompting him to return to London. He manages to get on a fully booked train named the Orient Express, with the help of his friend. The has to stop because of an avalanche that occurred. On the previous night one of the passengers has been murdered in a mysterious way. The protagonist, Hercule, starts to investigate the case and after a few days he can only come up with two guesses. One of the passengers admits that all the passengers were involved in the murder, thus Hercule's second guess was right. As I mentioned before the story is well-known, therefore the question is not "who done it" but rather how did they do it and why did they do it.
From my point of view, the film was not as spectacular and good as I expected it to be. There are logical mistakes in the film and the plot twist was not exciting either.
