5.0 out of 5 star rating<\/span> <\/span> <\/div> <\/div> \u201cThe thing about whodunnits,\u201d opines Adrien Brody\u2019s Leo K\u00f6pernick in the opening moments of the terrific new murder mystery See How They Run, \u201cis that once you\u2019ve seen one, you\u2019ve seen \u2019em all.\u201d<\/p>\n
It\u2019s 1953, and K\u00f6pernick is a big-shot Hollywood director who, on the occasion of the landmark 100th performance of Agatha Christie\u2019s The Mousetrap, is in the West End with the intention of turning the hit play into a major motion picture.<\/p>\n
From the off, he has run into various issues \u2013 the play can\u2019t be adapted until its theatrical run is over, for one, and stuck-up screenwriter Mervyn Cocker-Norris has not taken kindly to his suggestions for jazzing up the action. But that all pales in comparison to what follows, with K\u00f6pernick soon finding his ambitions foiled by a spate of real-life murders that put the production in real jeopardy.<\/p>\n
