A tense psychological drama, this movie keeps viewers guessing for most of the film as to what exactly happened to Nick Dunne (Ben Afleck) wife who goes missing. It is very reminiscent of the Scott and Lacy Peterson case of two decades ago, which was most likely used purposefully in order to side track the audience.

 

There is virtually no agenda from Hollywood present in this production which is truly a relief. This film is a tense, complex thriller that takes you until almost the end to know all that has transpired between these characters.
