MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS Cert 12

Digital Monday, disc March 5 All aboard for this handsomely upholstered retelling of Agatha Christie’s venerable murder mystery. Kenneth Branagh supplies a suitably stately air as the fabulously moustachioed Belgian sleuth, Hercule Poirot, tasked to solve a murder while travelling on the titular train. It’s a grand tour across very familiar terrain populated by a host of famous faces such as Judi Dench and Johnny Depp. Branagh also directs and does so with practised authority, driving his film to its most satisfying destination.

ALL I SEE IS YOU Cert 15

Digital Monday, disc March 5 Blake Lively was tremendous in 2016’s shark survival adventure The Shallows. This film was completed the same year and it’s easy to see why it is only now reaching our shores, after sinking at the US box office back in October. There’s no doubting Lively does her best as a woman recently cured of blindness, discovering unsettling truths about herself and her husband. But it’s visually incontinent and narratively incoherent as it jerks from Thailand to Spain, convulsing as if enduring some form of electro-shock therapy. Seeing this is more a trauma than a cure.

CALL ME BY YOUR NAME Cert 15

Digital Monday, disc March 3 This elegant, sincere and sensitive drama sees a teenager reveal his sexuality in this coming-ofage romance. James Ivory, now 89, won the best adapted screenplay BAFTA last Sunday and the film has been nominated for four Oscars, including best actor for Timothee Chalamet. He plays an Americanitalian teen who is attracted to Armie Hammer’s scholar. Occasionally the pace is overly languid, however this does allow us to drown in the gorgeous Italian locations.
