Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Death on the Nile actually is?

Look, I wanted to love Death on the Nile. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Death on the Nile?

Just got out of Death on the Nile and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

The cinematography in Death on the Nile is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Rewatched Death on the Nile last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.
