Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

This is a 2.5 hour movie and sometimes these days it's difficult for me to stick with the longer movies but this never felt long. You were always curious what was going on. Let's just say it didn't quite go the way I expected but I was intrigued the whole time. The acting was great. This could for sure be considered a slow burn and I'm actually currently watching the TV show Sharp Objects by the same author and this is paced much better than that. There's a couple things I didn't particularly thing got solved or like how they went at the end but overall a great movie.

Surprisingly, i was not as spooked as my sister warned me it was going to be. The movie is well-made backed by a strong story, and some great performances. I could not predict where the story was going throughout the time i was watching, which made for a great movie experience.

I actually watched the film before reading the book, and have since become an avid Gillian Flynn fan and love both, Dark Places and, Sharp Objects, the latter of which I am extremely excited about seeing as a series. Back to the film...What starts off as a fairly normal missing persons thriller, quickly becomes something that you least expect. It is extremely faithful to the book, which I always approve of and very little was even left out. Ben Affleck is fantastic and whatever you may have thought/think about him as a person, do not let that cloud your judgement when watching, Gone Girl, as he is really is believable. However it is Rosamund Pike who steals the show as the missing wife. She is just outstanding, really fantastic. There is enough sex, detective work, subplots, good dialogue etc to interest fans of the different components of a thriller, but for me the overall story line is just so perfect that I wonder if it truly ever could have failed as a film.I am currently waiting for my two next favorite books to make it to screen, What Happened to Michael by N F Paupe, who has the equal power of deception and intrigue that Flynn does and , The Dry, by Jane Harper, a book that will explode ( literally) on screen.

Gone Girl is a Lifetime style film on steroids. Amy (Rosamund Pike) and Nick (Ben Affleck) are in a less than perfect marriage. Nick sees Amy as his trophy wife, sex object, and cash cow. Amy is heir of a children's book heir. Nick is between jobs who spends time with his twin sister Margo (Carrie Coon) at The Bar playing board games. When Amy goes missing on their fifth anniversary, Nick is less than forthcoming and with clues mounting, they are all pointing at him as a suspect .Part of the film involves the media frenzy surrounding the case. Tyler Perry enters the film late as a high priced attorney. And Neil Patrick Harris enters the film very late. The film uses flashbacks to show us their lives.This is a nice "straight forward" twisty tale. You watch and try to figure things out with Kim Dickens, wondering where things are going to go. Once we know for certain what happened to Amy, the film loses some of its appeal.The movie had a Lifetime feel to it. Good entertainment, but not something that needs to be seen on the big screen.Parental Guide: F-bomb. Brief sex. Nudity (Rosamund Pike, Emily Ratajkowski)
