Murder on the Orient Express/东方快车谋杀案

As I have watched the two previous versions "Murder on the Orient Express" and "Agatha Christie's Poirot: Murder on the Orient Express", this version brought not too much surprise to me. Yet, the ending part is very thoughtful as it discusses the conflicts between the law and the justice. What if the law only works to those people who would obey it? Is there any other methods can human society employs to avoid injustice as much as possible?

The final scene is a strong metaphor as the director employed the structuring of "The Last Dinner" by Da Vinci, which means the 12 people is a jury and decided to make their own verdict.
