Fincher's weakest movie

Rating: 8/10 (1 March 2020)

Gone Girl compared to the rest of thrillers created by the hand of David Fincher, is an uneven comparison, Gone Girl as the story progresses does not have the same captivating rhythm of Fincher films and revelations throughout history are not as consistent and surprising as its other thrillers that are made up of amazing revelations after revelation.
The story really is not so difficult to follow or understand, it is not a story so twisted to have to see several times to understand if you are attentive, as is the case with Fight Club.
Some internal logical failures of the script make the movie lose a bit of strength and emotion, however here are all the resources used by Fincher in his other films and that is why I like it so much, the atmosphere of the film is mostly uncomfortable, dark and captivating, like every good Fincher movie has a unique style full of neo noir cinema inspirations, such as Brian dePalma, Paul Verhoveen and the most obvious Alfred Hitchcock.
The climax of the film is the most unsatisfactory of the thrillers that David Fincher has made, constantly the endings of his film are surprising and suffocating, although the end of Gone Girl works, it extends so much that it seems stupid and loses strength, the last 10 minutes of the movie are an explanation of everything that has made us understand the movie, it's as if at the end of Fight Club they had interviews with Marla and The Narrator.
Gone Girl is suffocating most of the time, intelligent both to develop her story and to give a different and uncomfortable portrait of marriage, the best thing about this movie is that there is no hero, all the characters here are morally wrong, an essential characteristic of the thrillers.
