**1/2

Rating: 6/10 (20 June 2015)

Intense psychological thriller with Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike giving what should have been Oscar nominated performances.
Bitter about her husband's infidelities, a woman disappears and eventually her husband is arrested for her murder.
Neil Patrick Harris really steps out of his usual persona here to play her psychologically demented childhood lover with disastrous results.
The picture loses steam once Pike returns to Affleck and he desperately wants nothing to do with her, but is in essence trapped by the web of deception she has created. While on the lam, Pike resembles Ingrid Bergman in "Autumn Sonata," and Helen Mirren.
