SaralnamaThe Thursday Murder Club film, directed by Chris Columbus, released on Netflix India on 28 Aug 2025. It stars Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Ben Kingsley, and Celia Imrie as four retirees solving cold cases in a fancy retirement home called Coopers Chase. The story involves a murder linked to redevelopment plans. The cast’s performance is praised for chemistry and charm, but the mystery plot is weak and predictable. The film lacks the clever twists and humour of Richard Osman's bestselling novel. The setting looks like a luxury resort, making the residents’ fight less convincing. The movie is easy to watch but not very memorable, suitable for light viewing without much suspense. (Updated 28 Aug 2025, 17:09 IST; source: link)
