A bad Agatha Christie knock off
27 April 2023
Warning: Spoilers
This really was bad.

Connections impossibly made, bad acting and I do mean bad. Mischa Barton was atrocious, missing her queues, and an upper class accent that kept slipping. This felt like a stage production and they forgot to update it to 2023 standards. A weak performance and terrible writing.

None of the characters were likeable and none questioned their presence on the island. They even forgot that after discovering the first murder they sent the doctor to fetch help. And then he wouldn't search the dead body, poorly scripted rubbish.

Technology far beyond what was available and why would a recluse need sound proof rooms and secret passages? He wouldn't.

The nail was at the end when after realising the two characters who were just about getting it on were brother and sister. Oh well, lets be friends.....blech. And Mischa's character saying óh, I never had much use for money' this from a florist in a depressed 1920s? Give me a break Complete rubbish and I gave it a two because apparently they managed to get funding for this........how? Avoid at all costs!
