Branagh's Latest Poirot Film Fails to Deliver Suspense and Scares

  • Kenneth Branagh's new Poirot film "A Haunting in Venice" is being criticized as boring and falling short on delivering scares.
  • The film attempts a blend of mystery and horror but lacks intrigue, character development and effective editing.
  • While featuring stars like Tina Fey, the movie aims for an old-school charm but isn't genuinely frightening.
  • Set in post-WWII Venice, the film tells a murder mystery with ghostly elements but lacks sharper scares of Branagh's previous horror films.
  • Though visually capturing Venice's atmosphere, reviews say the movie is engaging but not scary enough.
