Another masterpiece from one of the best new generation directors....

Rating: 9/10 (12 October 2014)

David Fincher has returned to what he does best, he turns a great story and a great script into a suspense what-will-happen-next drama-thriller (of course with a twist or two), so you can definitely say it's worth spending two and a half hours in front of a screen with this title....
The movie itself goes step by step, giving the viewer exactly enough information and plot as it is necessary to go into the next step. Each step is brilliantly directed and in that department it reminds me a lot of The Fight Club. At the very time you start thinking it will get boring, something happens to keep things going, and it keeps you in your seat the whole time....
Concerning the cast and the acting, I'm delighted with the performance of the whole cast in general. The portraits of the characters (even the supporting ones) is excellent, each and every one of them is well played, and necessary for the development of the main characters, the plot and the whole story in general. Ben Affleck, who is definitely not one of my favorite screen guys, does well, and it feels that the role fits him well. I also want to welcome a good debut part of stunningly beautiful Emily Ratajkowski, as well as the great role of Carrie Coon, but what definitely steals the whole thing is the performance of Rosamund Pike (expect an Oscar nomination, possibly even the statue in her hands).
To sum it all up, it starts as one thing, than it turns to another thing, and it ends as a third thing....Enjoy
