Never enough credit

Rating: 9/10 (3 February 2015)

This film has not got enough award credit this season, especially for David Fincher, the directing is intense and full of mystery, well controlled and definitely deserving of an Oscar nod. Although Ben Affleck manages well to ruin a lot of films he is in, he carries himself extremely well in this one, he manages to confuse the audience while getting across the emotions he is aiming for. This film, however, was carried by Rosamund Pike, she is intense and has all the attributes of a psychopath, you can tell she has put all her effort into this role and doesn't flinch or move out of character once, a moving performance. The whole feel of this movie makes you leave the cinema slightly scarred and also with a lot of thoughts. The script is well written starting and ending with rhetorical questions you will be asking yourself for the next few days. Everything fits, a must see.
