Review of Gone Girl (2014) by Filmwatcher123 — 04 Oct 2014
This movie was very entertaining and intense, but is not perfect. Ben Affleck as the main character Nick made for a relate-able and sympathetic main character as you begin to feel for and suspect him as he works through the situation he has found himself in.
For me the person who stands out most in this film is Rosamund Pike for reason I can't give without spoiling everything, but you'll have to trust me when I say that she was brilliant. The story itself was well thought out, well written and well paced making the 2hr 20mins run time entertaining and enjoyable for the most part.
The reason I haven't given this film a 10 is because of the ending. Again without revealing anything I can't give specifics but there are a few things that don't add up and the reaction that the policewoman gives to the out come seems to be there just so the director could get the ending he wanted.
That being said I would definitely watch the movie again for the suspense and brilliant writing in this film and if you are a fan of David Fincher's other work, then this film is a must see for you.
