3 Reasons Why Gone Girl Is a Must-see film

Gone Girl, the movie starring Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike, is one movie that people have been talking about.

I heard so much rave about the movie from people who have watched the film and it made me curious why this film is a must-watch film. In order to address my curiosity and to take a much deserved break, I ended up watching the movie the other day.

The film revolves around the life of a married couple named Nick Dunne and his beautiful wife Amy who just mysteriously went missing on their fifth wedding anniversary.

The media and the police both get confused with the clues and strange incidents that have been popping up after Amy's disappearance. It certainly makes everyone ask the question: Did Nick Dunne kill his wife?

Here's the trailer of Gone Girl:







I would say that this film is very different from the other suspense/mystery films that I have watched before. Below are the 3 reasons why you should watch it:

1) Rosamund Pike is a great actress

Rosamund Pike was able to portray the complex character of Amy Dunne in an excellent manner. 

Her facial expressions and great acting simply transforms the character in different ways that keep the audience on the edge of their seats and keep them guessing why Amy disappeared.

She is also British. I did not even know she was British until I saw a short video interview of her by W Magazine recently.  It is amazing that when you see her in the movie you would not even think that she is British since her American accent is just perfect.


2) Gone Girl is "Intense"

It is certainly an "intense" and shocking movie that people will talk about during dinners with their friends.

The sexy and controversial scenes in the movie may have raised some eyebrows but it is part of what makes the film remarkable.

It's a very risque type of  film that you either hate or love.


3) The story has crazy twists and turns

The scenes that lead to the story's ending makes the audience think more and the pace of the story is just right that it keeps you guessing on who is responsible for Amy's disappearance. It also makes you think who the real crazy person is in Amy and Nick's dsyfunctional marriage.

Overall, Gone Girl is certainly a must-watch film but it is a film for people who do not mind watching an unusual, somewhat shocking but remarkable film.
