Nov 18, 2024Moonflower Murders brought something new to an arguably done-to-death formula by mixing a modern murder case with a hokey period whodunit – a charming blend of new and old.
-
“Moonflower” is highly amusing for all the usual reasons a murder mystery entertains. But it is also making terrific use of the same genre conventions that it takes great glee in blowing up.
-
The actors enlisted to play the lengthy list of suspects are a treat. “Moonflower Murders” is pure comfort food for the mystery lover, and holds true to the Christie spirit.
-
There is nothing to dislike, it just over-eggs the pudding. Having watched six episodes in the series, I can’t decide whether the denouement is satisfying or silly.
