Death on the Nile was first released in several international markets on February 9, 2022, and in the United Kingdom and the United States on February 11, 2022, following several delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The film received generally positive reviews from critics and grossed $137.3 million. A sequel, titled A Haunting in Venice , an adaptation of Hallowe'en Party , was released on September 15, 2023, with Branagh once again directing and starring as Poirot.

Plot

The film opens in Belgium at the Yser Bridge on October 31, 1914, in the hellish landscape of the front lines of World War I. Hercule Poirot's captain has been given a mission that is certain death for all his men. Poirot—a clean-shaven youth—advises his captain to follow a strategy that will accomplish the mission safely. It succeeds, but when his captain steps on a mine, Poirot is caught in the explosion. Poirot's fiancée, Katherine, visits him in the hospital. She tells him that love endures everything, and when he turns his ravaged face to her and asks “What about this?” she kisses his hand and calmly replies, “Simple: You'll grow a moustache.”

In 1937, at a London club, Poirot—wearing an elaborate, perfectly tended moustache—watches blues singer Salome Otterbourne perform. He notices Jacqueline "Jackie" de Bellefort introducing her fiancé, Simon Doyle, to her childhood friend, heiress Linnet Ridgeway. After meeting Simon, Linnet agrees to hire him as her land agent.

Six weeks later, in Egypt, Poirot encounters his friend, Bouc, with his mother, Euphemia, and the trio attend the wedding of Linnet and Simon. Others join their honeymoon trip: Linnet's maid, Louise Bourget; Salome and her niece/manager Rosalie, Linnet's schoolfriend; Linnet's godmother Marie Van Schuyler with her nurse, Mrs. Bowers; Linnet's financial manager and cousin Andrew Katchadourian; and Dr. Linus Windlesham, Linnet's former fiancé who renounced his titled background. Linnet asks Poirot for protection from the obsessive and bitter Jackie, who has stalked the couple to Egypt.

To escape Jackie, the group boards the cruise ship S.S. Karnak. In his stateroom, Poirot whispers “Katherine, mon amour” to a photograph of her. Its glass is cracked. Linnet tell Poirot she distrusts her guests. Bouc reveals he is dating Rosalie, despite his mother's disapproval, and teases Poirot about Poirot's attraction to Salome. Poirot replies that his one encounter with love left him with a lifetime's regret.

After a boulder falls off a column and nearly crushes Linnet and Simon, the guests return to the Karnak to discover Jackie has boarded. Poirot tells Jackie that he, too, lost his love—when the train that was bringing her to visit him was shelled.

When Linnet goes to sleep, Simon confronts Jackie, who shoots him in the leg. When she attempts to shoot herself, Rosalie and Bouc intervene, taking her to Mrs. Bowers. Windlesham treats Simon.

The following morning, Louise discovers Linnet has been shot in the head. Her valuable necklace has been stolen. Poirot, assisted by Bouc, interrogates the guests, each of whom bears a grudge against Linnet or would benefit from her death.

Poirot reveals that Euphemia hired him to investigate Rosalie, who, he concludes, is more than worthy of her son's affection. Rosalie storms off and discovers Louise's body with money and her throat slit. Poirot suspects Louise blackmailed Linnet's killer.

Poirot and Simon interrogate Bouc. He found Linnet dead and stole her necklace to gain financial freedom from his mother, but panicked and put it in Euphemia's belongings. Bouc witnessed Louise's murder, but before revealing the killer, he is shot through the throat and dies; Poirot chases the killer, but only finds the discarded gun.

Locking the surviving guests in the boat's saloon, Poirot reveals that Simon killed Linnet, with Jackie as the mastermind. They are still lovers and arranged Simon's romance with Linnet to inherit her wealth. Simon drugged Poirot's champagne, and Jackie shot a blank at Simon, who faked his injury with paint stolen from Euphemia. While Jackie distracted Bouc and Rosalie, Simon killed Linnet, returned to the saloon, shot his own leg, muffled by Van Schuyler's scarf. Jackie killed Louise with Windlesham's scalpel and Bouc with Andrew's gun.

As a final clue, Poirot reveals that the handkerchief used in the fake shooting, recovered along with the gun, had faded to pink instead of brown, proving the stains were not blood. Faced with Poirot's irrefutable proof, Jackie embraces Simon and shoots him through the back, killing them both with one shot. As the passengers disembark, Poirot is unable to voice his feelings to Salome.

Six months later, a clean-shaven Poirot visits Salome's club to watch her rehearse.

[62]

Critical response

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes , 61% of 290 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 5.9/10.The website's consensus reads: "Old-fashioned to a fault, the solidly entertaining Death on the Nile is enlivened by its all-star cast and director-star Kenneth Branagh's obvious affection for the material." [63] Metacritic , which uses a weighted average , assigned the film a score of 52 out of 100, based on 51 critics, indicating "mixed or average" reviews. [64] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B" on an A+ to F scale, the same as its predecessor, while those at PostTrak gave it a 77% positive score, with 57% saying they would definitely recommend it. [41]

David Rooney of The Hollywood Reporter wrote: "For some of us who look back with affection on John Guillermin's lush 1978 screen version, there's a nagging feeling throughout that Branagh, while hitting the marks of storytelling and design, has drained some of the fun out of it." [65] Owen Gleiberman of Variety called the film "a moderately diverting dessert that carries you right along. It never transcends the feeling that you're seeing a relic injected with life serum, but that, in a way, is part of its minor-league charm." [66] Edward Porter of The Times gave the film three out of five stars, saying that its "gaudy style — combined with the melodrama of the script's modified take on Christie's plot — remains diverting even if some of the supposedly Egyptian backdrops look phoney." [67] Sandra Hall of The Sydney Morning Herald gave the film four out of five stars, writing: "While the gamble Branagh takes in disinterring Poirot's long-neglected sensitive side may be regarded as sacrilege by some, I think it works. Poirot has a yearning heart." [68]

Wendy Ide of The Observer gave the film two out of five stars, writing: "The camera whirls giddily, dizzy from the sparkle and spectacle, but not quite able to conceal the fact that this is an empty bauble of a movie." [69] David Fear of Rolling Stone wrote that the film "has its joys and flaws apart from that Armie factor, but it's almost like trying to assess whether the appetizer course could have been slightly undercooked while an elephant stampedes over the whole dinner table." [70] Joe Morgenstern of The Wall Street Journal wrote that the film "has pizazz and period style in the same way today's big-brand toothpastes have flavor – artificial ingredients give them a taste that's discernible, but too generic to name."

Sequel

In a December 2017 interview with the Associated Press, Branagh discussed developing the adaptation of Death on the Nile with the possibility of more films to follow, potentially creating a new "cinematic universe" of Christie films: [80]

"I think there are possibilities, aren't there? With 66 books and short stories and plays, she — and she often brings people together in her own books actually, so innately — she enjoyed that," he says. "You feel as though there is a world — just like with Dickens, there's a complete world that she's created — certain kinds of characters who live in her world — that I think has real possibilities." [80]

Branagh stated that discussions for additional films were ongoing in February 2022, hoping the film series becomes a franchise including other Christie characters, including Jane Marple. [81] By March 2022, 20th Century Studios President Steve Asbell confirmed a third installment was in development. Branagh returned as director and star, while Michael Green once again served as screenwriter. [82] [83] Production for A Haunting in Venice began November 2022, [84] and was released September 15, 2023.
