Really??

Rating: 2/10 (24 February 2015)

I'm not sure how this movie could have such a high rating. I suppose it had its moments, but surely there has to be some, however thin, connection that allows the audience to suspend belief enough to go with the movie. That connection in Gone Girl is stretched beyond breaking point pretty early on and never recovers.
The performances are good - I'm not saying it is a total stinker, but it just doesn't stand up to even the most casual reality check. If you want to know some of the particular points that I refer to you can look at some of the recent reviews which outline them in great detail. But then of course there are many spoilers to deal with - so here is a non spoiler warning - This Movie Is Just Too Far Fetched to suck you in so why not give it a miss?
