Small screen on a big screen

 

Missing (2023)


directed by Will Merrick & Nick Johnson this film stars Storm Reid, Joaquin de Almeida, Ken Leung and Nia Long. An 18 year old girl searches for her mother after she does not return from a trip to Colombia.


As mystery thrillers go this one is fine, just when you think it has something interesting to say on the true crime genre it unfortunately goes nowhere. There is one glaring plot element that it annoyed me that the characters overlooked, otherwise I do not have much to complain about. A decent sequel to Searching (2018) that does not feel constrained by the screenlife gimmick.


3/5
