Death On The Nile
While slightly better than 2017’s Murder on the Orient Express, Branagh needs to stop directing the film adaptation of Christie’s novel and instead needs to focus on playing Poirot as well as he does.

Reacher
Broken into eight, one-hour-long episodes, Reacher is a series of crests and troughs culminating, much like a ship on the ocean, at a destination far from its original launch point.

Moonfall
Emmerich has had a few hits over the years and at least twice as many misses and Moonfall, unfortunately, falls into the latter category.
