Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials Review: Netflix Redeems an Unpopular Mystery

What’s clever about this adaptation of Seven Dials is that the creator, Chris Chibnall, seems to know what the story can handle and doesn’t try to do too much. Agatha Christie’s The Seven Dials Mystery was previously a 1981 TV movie, like many of her books. This three-part series strikes a nice balance, allowing for deeper character development and a compelling mystery without feeling drawn out. However, the shorter, film-like structure doesn’t always fully benefit the story.
