Great movie, however book leaves film in the dust

I really enjoyed the film version of the book, however after reading the book, the movie had little effect on me. The book is a must read, and carries much more suspense with it than the movie.

Other than a completely different ending, Agatha Christie's style provides a top of the line mystery.

I will say however, the characters of the Judge as well ad Lombard are portrayed brilliantly, and provide great lead roles for the movie. The setting for the film also appears to match the book fairly closely.

Again, the book is terrific, and if the option presents itself, I encourage reading the book before viewing the movie. If you're not a book person, the movie is a pretty nice thrill, and well worth watching.
