Movie Review (English)

Gone Girl

Does a movie do well because of a particular director only or also because the original novelist also wrote the screenplay? Gillian Flynn translated her book on to screen with love and imagination and thrill which was evident.
The twists in the story left me dazed. Ben Affleck as Nick and Rosamund Pike as Amy are really wonderful actors giving the right dose of chill on screen. When it began, which was the end actually, I was sure I had got the gist of the story. But every half hour I changed position and thought I had got the gist yet again. But when Amy returns, that was quite a master stroke. First she lets people think her husband murdered her. For this she prepared like a master artist, down to the last detail. Once out of the house, she prepares never to come back, preferring to watch her husband being hanged. But luck does not always favour the evil. So more twists follow and she returns. Poor hubby, he wanted a divorce long before, now he is caught in his suffocating marriage! The people will not let him leave her.

I enjoyed the movie. Highly recommended!!!.
