Shortly before he is to wed, millionaire John Willis is visited by Dr. Harry S. Blair, a psychiatrist who informs him that years before he was married to Nancy, John's wife-to-be, and warns him that she is mentally unbalanced.
Blair then relates the following story: After a whirlwind romance in Florida, Blair marries Nancy and starts a psychiatric practice in New York. One day, artist Norman Clyde comes to his office and tells him that an innocent man is about to be executed in Sing Sing Prison and that Nancy is the cause of his unjust incarceration. A distraught Clyde then explains himself to a curious Blair:
Three years before, Clyde meets Nancy, whose maiden name was Monks, when she enrolls in his art class. The moody Clyde soon falls in love with Nancy's honest charm and beauty. Nancy, a secretary, introduces Clyde to her boss, millionaire Andrew Bonner, and persuades Bonner to showcase Clyde's paintings at one of his private showings. To Nancy's delight, Clyde's painting, a depiction of the tragic figure Cassandra for which she modeled, wins first prize at the showing. The evening is perfect until an expensive bracelet is stolen from a guest, and Clyde later finds it in Nancy's purse. After Clyde confronts a confused Nancy about the theft, she relates the following story to explain her behavior:
As a young girl, Nancy lives with her housekeeper mother in the lavish Willis home and plays with Karen, the Willises' little daughter. Although Karen wants to invite Nancy to her upcoming birthday party, Mrs. Willis refuses to allow the lower-class Nancy to attend. A true friend, Karen promises to give Nancy one of the pins her guests are receiving. When Karen realizes there are no extra pins, however, she offers Nancy the beautiful locket she has just received from her mother. Nancy's subsequent joy is soon crushed when Mrs. Willis demands that she return the locket. Later, the locket is discovered missing, and Nancy is accused of theft. Although Nancy's mother soon finds the locket in Karen's dress, Mrs. Willis refuses to believe Nancy and forces her to "confess."
The adult Nancy then admits to Clyde that this childhood humiliation caused her unconscious desire to steal the bracelet at the party. After a forgiving Clyde returns the bracelet anonymously, he and Nancy continue their romance until the next party at the Bonners'. Suspecting that the absent Nancy is spending the evening in Bonner's arms, Clyde leaves the party to look for her and sees her exiting Mrs. Bonner's bedroom just after two gunshots are fired. Bonner is found murdered, and Mrs. Bonner's diamond necklace, stolen. Although Nancy and Clyde are questioned, valet Myron Dexter is eventually found guilty and is sentenced to die. Clyde, however, strongly suspects Nancy, but she angrily maintains her innocence and leaves for Florida.
Back in his office, Blair defends Nancy to Clyde but invites him to his house that evening. When confronted, Nancy denies everything and tells Blair that Clyde is merely jealous. The next day, Dexter is executed, and a guilt-ridden Clyde jumps from Blair's office window to his death.
To avoid scandal, Blair and Nancy move to England, and after World War II breaks out, Blair volunteers his medical services, while Nancy becomes an ambulance driver. Expressing concern over Blair's health, Nancy insists that they take a vacation at Lord and Lady Wyndham's manor house. Just as they are leaving, Blair learns that one of Lady Wyndham's valuable jewels has been stolen. Blair suspects Nancy but is unable to prove anything until a bomb destroys their flat and reveals her cache of stolen jewels.
Although confronted directly, Nancy continues to deny any guilt and divorces Blair after he suffers a nervous breakdown. Back in John's study, Blair, like Clyde before him, tries to convince John to abandon Nancy, who now uses the name Patton. John, however, believes Nancy when she tells him that Blair is still suffering from his breakdown.
Moments before the wedding is to start, Nancy's future mother-in-law, the unsuspecting Mrs. Willis, gives her the same locket that she once took away, and tells her that it is a precious family heirloom. The locket causes Nancy to be overcome with guilt, and she collapses at the altar in hysterics. As Nancy is later taken away to an institution, John sadly realizes the truth of Blair's story, but determines to see Nancy through her crisis.
虽然我没有读过原著，但把电影拍得让我猜出了所有悬念，这是多么地套路。
忘记原著剧情了，也没有什么大的意见。船上的密室杀人案，拍得也太像剧本杀了。看完有点想去埃及。
能把阿婆的故事拍稀碎，也是一种反向的超能力，我觉得没吃晚饭冒着冷风花着钱跑去看它的我才是惨案本身。
没看过原版，悬疑中规中矩，不过整个画面看上去很油腻，不喜欢。
导演是不是觉得既然改编自名作，前面又已经被拍过所以大家都已经知道凶手了？结案的时候那么爽快地承认，那么快地自裁，给点时间让演员表演一下好么？这里节奏明显太快了 | 埃及风光用CG做得还是太过干净和明亮了，有点点假 | 改编自阿加莎克里斯蒂的同名小说
音乐明显比第一部差很多，没有撑起重要情节和整体气场。悬疑味道大于爱情悲剧气质，太过可惜，本来看老版的时候就觉得最后一幕其实可以有更多渲染，然后看完新世纪这版第一部我是很期待第二部能拍出那种爱与道义间纵然清醒赴死间的悲怆感，结果啥都没有，啥都没有阿，过家家似的就结束了，凶手动机都支撑不起来，还不如老版的表达。波洛个人秀那段也多此一举，还不如没有。
阿加莎的小说翻拍就和金庸在华语圈一样，每过几年就有人想挑战一下，结果一届不如一届。这部电影的水平还不如王晶今年翻拍的倚天屠龙记呢！
改了一下原著剧本，啰里八嗦的演了一遍。然后侦探出出马，轻轻松松就给你从嘴里讲了一遍。少了什么，哦，推理过程，不过，胡凯尔斯。
看过原著知道结局纯粹是看演员了，说实话卡司真的非常到位，三角恋三位和我看原著想象的演员一模一样。一起看的小伙伴吐槽毫无推理直接给结论哈哈哈。总的来说还行吧，魔改没改太差，菠萝个性比东方列车那部要贴近原著一丢丢
全场highlight时刻——开篇狗男女贴身热舞场面 看看有几个和我一样 面红耳赤心跳加速的死样
肯尼斯布拉纳以强烈的个人风格，以爱为主题，重新讲述了这起谋杀案。从小说中人性复杂的群像，对于女性角色丰富情感细腻的刻画，转为把焦点落在"爱如何令人堕落成魔"。用苦涩的爵士乐，浓郁狂野的视觉效果，烘托了爱与死的激情与恐惧。但是，林内特这个角色被弱化，使得整个故事失去了原本的魅力。
6.8 相比无人生还和东方列车谋杀案，这个电影的剧本貌似稍微有一点点弱，推理的高潮，仿佛都在故意给每个人找一个嫌疑，然而有些人的嫌疑又有些无力，让人一眼就能看透只是“工具人”而已。同时，影片用了大量的时间来刻画各种爱情，反而推理的部分有些薄弱了。电影整体画面的美感、演员的张力、电影的配乐都还不错，尤其是尼罗河上大场面的旖旎风光，给影片增色不少。
不选盖尔的都是脑子有坑!

选角都挺成功的。每次人物要开始泪盈双眼了就一直怼大特写太没必要了。再这样下去感觉肯尼斯布拉纳离被网暴不远了。
为我前担，已经沉沦到尼罗河底的艾米汉莫加一星，其他的，全是为19年春天我看见的开罗、阿斯旺、卡纳克、丹达拉、吉萨大金字塔，为我曾顺流而下的那条世界上最清澈的大河……
Cult依旧，邪典奔放，但有点类型单一，人体机械很赞…
改编缺乏想象力，走心理流派，侦探人格分裂成为最终凶手多好。
加同性元素，加种族元素，还给侦探也加了感情戏，最后结尾十分潦草，又给侦探加戏，我真的不理解😅
觉得还行吧！主要是原著故事真的很精彩！让我再次想起来，我要去看阿婆的剩下几本没看过的原著小说了。
