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.
又名《It's always the husband》
真是眼瞎了。全程我都以为自己在看玛格罗比跟贾坤菲尼克斯。结果竟是两个完全不同的演员
导演可真会给自己加戏，开头我还以为是在看《1917》，贵族变农民，还是打过仗死过老婆的农民就算了，到结尾居然还玩了枪剃了胡子追了女仔，这哪是波洛，这他妈是佐罗吧！？
③如果说有最大的不足，应该是通篇的浮夸风格，但是这也是和当时，或者说肯尼思·布拉纳本人认知的「浮华时代」相符的，观众还是应该需要包容更多的呈现形式。
有人众筹把这个波洛探长丢进尼罗河里吗？我出十块，不能再多了。
两星半。后半程的魅力来自阿婆的原著。armie和gal演技双双掉线，群戏倒还行。没看出埃及的恢弘，每次特写背景虚化都感觉绿幕没抠干净。再次坐实了肯尼斯布拉纳是个好演员，当导演却毫无灵气，呆板僵硬，片子都像好学生写作文一样用力过猛。对他拿了奥提本来非常不快，看完又觉得…给他一个提名吧，证明了没有才气光靠努力也能走到那一步，还挺励志。
改编得太可怕了，看完觉得想骂点太多，一时骂不完！
之前没看过这个系列，也许久不看cult风格的影片。第一个和第三个故事都蛮有意思的。
太无聊了！和同导演前几年的《东方快车谋杀案》一脉相承。一部能把半个影院的观众都快看睡着的“悬疑”作品，只有美景和美女值得一看。85分的原作，80分的卡司，70分平均演技，最后变成50分的作品。求求肯导放过阿婆的作品吧。
最后高潮揭底部分有点弱，总体还不错，还有什么比周末大银幕看一部阿婆的纯侦探剧更让人开心的呢
怒打一星！出来骗钱就不要打着阿婆的旗号了吧。
大家给老版加了太多童年滤镜。刷完新版后，又重新复习了一遍老版，说实话，二者水平差不多。毕竟原著底子就那样，是个架空到忽略了现实逻辑的空想故事，经不起仔细推敲。老版的浮夸表演简直没眼看，菠萝油腻又肥胖。只适合美好地停留在记忆里。新版摄影、特效、服化道、风光显然更养眼。菠萝的形象也更机警、睿智。另：这艘豪华游艇到底备了多少白色裹尸布啊？下船时一个个包得齐齐整整，好像事先知道会死五个人似的。
有阿加莎的原著打底，即使最后波洛推理的部分稍显薄弱，整个影片的情节性也没有掉链子。天环Luxe厅观影下，镜头撇除导演莫名其妙给了自己很多没必要的特写外，其他很多时候都美轮美奂，布鲁斯音乐也很加分。败笔是艾玛麦基，自修室那套演技和奇怪的脸部动作，在大银幕上非常突兀。
这种东西翻拍改编又干不过原版，演也演不过的电影。就犹如每个中国人民都要去糟蹋金庸，勤劳善良的美国人民自然要去糟蹋阿加莎啦。只看到一个制作者的自恋和阿婆原版故事的精彩。全剧最佳是Tiffany&Co，以及妈宝男不能要，烂泥扶不上墙的亲戚不能要，门不当户不对的男人不能要，《小时代》抢男人不能要，最为重要的是水货布拉纳更不能要～
前半段尚有加朵的颜能看（虽然78版的颜还略胜加朵），后半段数次看到裂开，跪求国际大导演肯尼斯布拉纳放过阿加莎克里斯蒂
为着尼罗河上的惨案我还在埃及沿着小说的路线走了一遍，看过七十年代版本的，其实看不看这个都没什么关系的……要是没看过，只当一部电影看也还行
除第三个故事的生化人外，其他剧情平庸、画面肮脏。4k画质看录像带的效果，也是没谁了
火吻的戏份有点少啊，希望未来戏再多点
阿婆电影宇宙。作为经典文本的改编来说非常不错，张驰有度，前一个钟埃及观光兼铺垫人物关系，后一个钟家访、推理、揭示真相。而且家访被压缩到最小限度，波洛的推理过程也十分简洁明快，毫不拖泥带水，最大限度保证了影片的流畅度和可看性，对路人观众来说应该算非常友好了。
作为肯爷精神股东，这个电影感觉悬疑感比东方快车更足，前面的男的甚至被吓得从椅子上跳起来大叫一声。
