| Professional Review: |
| At first glance, René Clair might seem an odd match for Agatha Christie's mystery thriller Ten Little Indians, but his buoyant touch is exactly what is missing from so many overly solemn remakes. Ten strangers gather for a mysterious gathering on a secluded island. It turns out to be a farewell party, for they all have been sentenced to die for crimes in their past by a self-appointed judge, jury, and executioner who may be one of them. One by one, the guests are systematically dispatched in the manner described in the lyrics of the children's rhyme "Ten Little Indians," while the survivors nervously eye one another, splintering into tenuous alliances until the next murder throws suspicion on someone new. The terrific cast of character actors has a ball with Dudley Nichols's witty script. The flamboyant sparring of Barry Fitzgerald (whose paternal Irish lilt takes a sinister dimension) and Walter Huston is almost upstaged by Roland Young's deadpan drollery. Romantic leads Louis Hayward and June Duprez come off as arch and stiff in august company that includes a sinisterly detached Judith Anderson, a dotty and distracted C. Aubrey Smith, and a hilariously flippant Mischa Auer. The story has been remade numerous times under the title of Christie's novel, Ten Little Indians, but never as well. Clair's effervescent, lively little gem is a fatal drawing-room comedy with a body count and a surreal mood of doom. --Sean Axmaker |

 Written on June 1, 2007 Summary: Horrible adaptation My family and I waited eagerly for our DVD to arrive. We immediately loaded the DVD and began to watch, anticipating a movie at least almost as exciting as the book. Instead of 96 minutes of suspense we were bogged down with what seemed to be hours upon hours of uninspiring drivel. This is one of the worst movies I have seen in a long time. The acting was horrible! I know some home movies that are more suspenseful. Overall we see character after character die while we the viewer could care less. One can only wonder, what would this movie have been in the hands of Hitchcock. Unless you have money to burn don't waste your money (even a dollar or two on this horrible adaptation of a wonderful book. Play a board game with the kids and fight, it will be immensely more enjoyable. Written on April 18, 2007 Summary: Good movie. But they should have kept a little closer with the book. I had to read this book in high school. I never was able to read it then though so I bought it years later. The book is really good. And so is the movie. My only complaint about the movie is that they didn't stay very close to the book with it. The ending in this movie is completely different than the ending in the book. Some of the characters names aren't even the same and neither are their "crimes". Personally, while this is a good movie and I do enjoy watching it, I like the book better. The movie has a happy ending to it where the book has a more tragic one. I would definitely recommend that anyone who hasn't read the book should. Anyone who is thinking about buying this movie, if you haven't already seen it and you haven't already read the book, buy the book instead. Read it first. Then come back later and buy the movie.  Written on January 12, 2007 Summary: Christie's And Then There Were None first movie One of Christie's early works and not one of her best, in my opinion. The first movie of this tale in black and white. A difficult and unbelieveable story line make this a mediocre film, but worth it for Christie fans. Written on January 10, 2007 Summary: AND THEN THERE WERE NONE A true icon in the catelgory of old mistery and suspense. A must for the classic mistery (who done it) collector. Excellent ending. Written on January 9, 2007 Summary: AN AFFORDABLE CLASSIC This classic favorite arrived in very good condition. There were no problems in playing it. Also, it arrived expeditiously. |
