One of a Kind

Rating: 9/10 (24 December 2014)

Gone Girl (2014): A gone girl. A man that is searching for his wife that's been missing and the many mysteries behind it what led to this tragic event.
(I know what you may think... A movie about 'Law and Order')?
Every second, every day the answers of the three main questions in a investigation is keep getting clearer. What led to this event, who did this and where is the 'victim' located now? We not only come to know more about the situation that is now been playing (with the emphasis on playing), we also take a deeper look at the relationship they have with each other, where the girl plays a particularly important role in.
This is not a ordinary case, which where you in course of time find a clearer trace, but this is a unbelievable really true maze of a mastermind game.
Gone Girl isn't just a movie about explore and discover, searching and finding, and certainly not a movie about 'Law and Order'.
Even though I found the very beginning a bit off and hard to understand of where the writers are working to, but I understand that the background noises are even so important as well and the movie is only going to get uphill from then on out.
This movie raises the level of story telling and sets a very unique tone in it's genre.
The biggest clue: The game(s) already told the movie for a large part.
