5. The description reminded me a bit of an Agatha Christie novel

4.51 from Paddington or something like that. But in that one a woman observes an actual murder taking place in an adjacent train.

I'll go see this movie if you can assure me it's the Hithcockian (e.g Rear Window) movie that the description promises, and not a modern fast-paced action film.

I see the critics mentioned improbable coincidences. I'm not that bothered by those so much, since I've encountered some incredible coincidences in my life that no script writer would dare to use

Can anyone else weigh in? This sounds like one of the few movies that might tempt me to the cinema this year.
