What viewers say

The film adaptation of Richard Osman's bestseller stars a celebrated cast as four retirees solving murders, and viewers enjoy the warm humor, charming performances and cozy retirement-village setting. Book fans often say it simplifies the plot and trims the characters' depth. Most see it as a pleasant, gentle watch rather than a gripping mystery.

Best for: Viewers who want a light, feel-good British mystery, especially fans of the books.
