Death on the Nile is the sequel to the 2017 film Murder on the Orient Express. It’s an adaptation of Agatha Christie’s 1937 novel. Kenneth Branagh returns to direct as well as star as the master detective Hercule Poirot. The year is 1937, and Poirot sees a happy, recen
Josh Reviews the Snyder Cut of Justice League!
