Product Description

Amazon.com

When a series of bizarre thefts at a boarding house leads to murder, it takes Hercule Poirot all of his ingenuity to solve a series of interlocking mysteries and unmask the killer. This feature-length Poirot mystery shows why David Suchet is the definitive screen version of Agatha Christie's dapper Belgian sleuth. With his fastidious habits and thick French accent it would be easy to turn Poirot into a caricature, but Suchet makes him funny without diminishing the detective's brilliance. Poirot's peculiarity is a perfect disguise, and when he sets out for the murder scene in his immaculate clothes--like a shiny black beetle bustling through the drab, brown London streets--there is little doubt that the crime will soon be solved.

Hickory Dickory Dock reaches its climax, naturellement, with the detective and his suspects gathered tensely in a drawing room. Although the story suffers from some clumsily introduced clues (Christie suffers here in comparison with writers like P.D. James), the denouement works well, keeping us guessing while allowing the more astute viewer to spot the killer before Poirot makes his announcement. --Simon Leake

    5.0 out of 5 stars Hickory, dickory, death.....
    Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2001

    In the opening scenes of this tale, a furry little mouse scurries through the walls of a boarding house in London searching for morsels of food. As in the children's nursery rhyme he scurries up the clock just as it strikes the hour. Having made his way to a bedroom in the upstairs, he pauses and twitches his whiskers. The crumbs from a bedtime cookie are lying on a saucer..but he hesitates. Something strange is happening and he dare not advance to the plate of crumbs. What is this...oh my goodness one of the humans is killing the nice young girl who always eats cookies at bedtime. What awful things happen in the hours around midnight!!
    Agatha Christie was given to using lines from literature for the titles of some of mystery tales, but HICKORY DICKORY DOCK is no nursery tale. Someone is killing the young men and women occupants of a youth hostel in London. The boarders are all attractive and energetic people...how could one of them be the culprit. What could be the motive..lust, money, a deadly secret??? The mouse knows the murderer's identity and the secret but the police are stymied.
    Enter Hercule Poirot! Well not exactly. First, there's Miss Lemmon. Seems her sister is in the boarding house business and she has noticed strange goings on at her establishment. Miss Lemmon asks Poirot to investigate her sister's complaints which he is reluctant to do. After all, how can the great Belgian detective worry about trifling matters like misplaced items at a boarding house..even for Miss Lemmon!! Poirot does as he is asked however, and soon he is involved with murder. With the help of the Lemmon sisters he cracks the case and not a moment too soon. A wild chase at the end involves Hastings and the good Inspector.
    HICKORY DICORY DOCK has an interesting cast including the handsome young man (Jonathan Firth) who played Albert in the miniseries VICTORIA AND ALBERT. (I understand he IS the brother of Colin!!)

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good adaptation of a great book.
    Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2015

    To me, David Suchet "is" Hercule Poirot. This has long been one of my favorite Agatha Christie stories, and I like this film version. There are obviously differences between the book and the movie (when is that *not* the case in an adaptation?)--for example, at least one book character is eliminated--but overall it's a good translation of the story. I need to go and reread the book again to recall many specific details.

    Uncharacteristic typing errors by his secretary, Ms. Lemon, prompt detective Hercule Poirot to ask her if something is wrong. Ms. Lemon explains that she's worried about her sister, who manages a student hostel where a number of thefts and acts of property damage have recently occurred. Poirot meets with Mrs. Hubbard and then gives a lecture presentation to the students about his crime solving activities. Soon afterward, one of the female students at the hostel comes to see Poirot and confesses to the thefts, though not to the damage done. But she knows who did that and plans to urge the guilty person to come forward. Before that happens, this student dies, seemingly of a drug overdose. But Poirot believes that she was murdered and begins to investigate all who live and work at the hostel. Many secrets start to be uncovered--secrets that someone in the building is willing to kill to keep.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Enchanted from the Start
    Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2003

    Both my sister and my mother have read almost every mystery that Agatha Christie ever wrote, but I never thought to start. Then I sat down one evening to watch television with them, and I was at once enchanted. It was an episode of Agatha Christie's Poirot on A&E. The David Suchet Poirot films (both full length movies and short films) come from this series. I enjoyed that first show so much that I watched the series religiously until it went off the air.
    I started reading some of Agatha Christie's mysteries this year, and I firmly believe that David Suchet is the best portrayal of Hercule Poirot that ever was. I have seen other notorious actors, such as Peter Ustinov and Tony Randall, play the part, but they do not achieve the full embodiment of the persona (both physical and psychological) that David Suchet does.
    HICKORY DICKORY DOCK isn't an immediately predictable film. I honestly did not know who the killer was until Poirot revealed the truth. This is not one of those mysteries where you can tell what the detective or the police or the killer will do before they even do it; this film left me completely on the edge of my seat. HICKORY DICKORY DOCK has a storyline that does not follow some predetermined, overused mystery plot; it is creative and exciting. Additionally, the historical accuracy is extreme, right down to the shoes.
    I highly recommend any of the David Suchet Poirot films to anyone searching for an interesting, exciting mystery to watch.

    Great episode except for all the scenes of the mice. They bring nothing to the plot and become annoying. Great seller!
