Ten strangers are summoned to a remote island and while they are waiting for the mysterious host to appear, a recording levels serious accusations at each of the guests. Soon they start being murdered, one by one. As the survivors try to keep their wits, they reach a disturbing conclusion: one of them must be the killer.

Me sentí re performative viendo esta película pero esta bastante buena che. Sorprendentemente graciosa pero cero fiel al libro. Igual me gustó, no me quejo

En väldigt oväntad och stark whodunit-film. Det är synd att jag inte listade ut vem mördaren var men aja den var bra ändå. Jag älskade repliken ”Sounds like the Bible, Great book”. Intressanta karaktärer och bra dialog gör filmen ganska spännande.

Emily Brent: Very stupid to kill the only servant in the house. Now we don't even know where to find the marmalade.
Solid whodunnit, nothing more to say.
