What is “Murder is Easy” about?
Murder is easyBased on Christie’s 1939 novel of the same name, it follows a former Nigerian policeman named Luke Fitzwilliam (Jonsson), who is on his way to a new job in London when he meets an older woman, Miss Pinkerton (Penelope Wilton), who claims there is a serial killer at work in her quiet English village of Wychwood.

But when She dies in a hit-and-run shortly after meeting herhe decides to travel to Wychwood to find out what happened.
Under the guise of writing a book, Fitzwilliam meets all of the small town’s eccentric characters while investigating the series of suspicious deaths before anyone else dies.

In Maggie BoccellaIn her Collider review, she notes that Jonsson was undoubtedly a scene-stealer. “Despite the clumsy performance, he is brilliant the right mix of charm and insight that makes a perfect amateur detective,Boccella wrote. “Fitzwilliam has the kind of attitude that makes you want to follow him anywhere, even if he’s not a genius detective like Miss Marple or Hercule Poirot.”
Other actors also shine. “The entire cast makes up for the point where one of Christie’s drier and less interesting stories falters” she wrote, adding that each member of the ensemble has a “unique touch and quirkiness.” One of the ensemble’s favorites was Baynton’s troubling on-site doctor. “For someone who grew up with him, it’s a bit of an anxiety disorder.” Horrible stories And Ghosts“But he seems to know exactly what works for him, incorporating the best parts of other, better-known characters into his latest work,” Boccella wrote.
