  Gone Girl 2014

  ★★★★★ Watched 11 Oct 2014

  Remember seeing the trailer a few months ago. Missing wife story didn't seem all that standout. Trailer looked like it gave every plot point away.

  Somehow hadn't clocked it was a Fincher movie.

  Sat down expecting a half decent movie. Got an absolute mindf*ck. Fincher at his intense, deceptive and visceral best.

  Speak 2004

  ★★★★½ Watched 21 Jun 2012 1

  Powerful yet understated performances all around and a good film.

  I wish Kristen Stewart would return to low budget films like this and Rileys - she's hugely underrated when she's in these roles and away from playing the 'heroine' role of those wretched Twilight films and Snow White.

  Yeah not sure why I watched this one. I guess I figured I hadn't seen Mischa Barton in a while.

  It's at least a little different and the central conceit is somewhat interesting, but the whole thing is ridiculous and the acting is pretty awful.
