The secrets of Cambodia

Wish You Were Here (2012)

Directed by Kieran Darcy-Smith this film stars Felicity Price, Joel Edgerton, Teresa Palmer and Anthony Starr. An Australian businessman goes missing in Cambodia, what are his three travel companions hiding from each other and the police?

This is a nicely constructed thriller that has a good slow burn to it, gradually teasing out information as it goes. While the story itself ends up being nothing particularly remarkable it is an enjoyable watch for a genre piece. What I like most about the film is how it keeps you at arms although occasionally the skips in time can be a little confusing.


3/5
