The idea that the four top sleuths in the world (Sherlock Holmes, Columbo, Jessica Fletcher and Dr. Sloan) should be brought together to solve the murder of Agatha Christie, is pure genius.
As each sleuth makes their way to the reading of Dame Christie's will, individually, they are all given a chance to shine.
Then, when they are all together, the chemistry kicks in and the personality of each sleuth is explored more fully.
The writing is sublime and shows the affection that the writers have for each character. There are more than enough 'nods-of-the-head' to keep the most diehard fans happy, with other series getting a mention, too.
The casting is perfect, with Brad Crooker and Danny Miller nailing their characters perfectly. Evan O'Hare and Kari Wishingrad give great performances, too, with Evan's Sherlock almost stealing the show.
The music is a perfect match to the pace of the film and isn't too overpowering or intrusive, so as to diminish the dialogue.
The direction is concise and smooth, which, along with the editing, makes for a comfortable watch.
