Disappearance

You'll notice right away there's a problem with Disappearance. All 6 or so actors are about as natural as robots at delivering their lines. This does ruin what is otherwise a very well produced film. The script may not be worthy of Hitchcock but it's definitely believable and intriguing as a mystery crime thriller. The cinematography, editing and pacing is also quite good. The wooden actors do improve slightly as the film progresses with a couple of laughable dramatic exceptions. I'd like to see this movie redone with capable thespians. Nice effort though. Worth a watch for the decent plot.

A book- writing husband and his wife fed up in their relationship go on a boat trip with his girlfriend plus the boats skipper. Later the husband disappears. Was he murdered or did he jump etc? Who cares?! Everyone in this movie is dull and boring. The pace of the film is far too slow; there is no excitement or real interest. Only the ocean and beach scenes are worth any merit or a rating:

3/10.

This movie was so predictable that I knew how it was going to end within the first 5 minutes. I'm sure it wouldn't take long to find a much better movie to sit through but if you're in a lazy mood and simply don't feel like searching this film is definitely watchable.

I'm a sucker for a good crime thriller. I had never heard of this so I streamed it onMGM plus, hoping it was decent. By the time I had enough of the slow pace and poor acting, I was too far in to turn it off without knowing what happened to the troubled writer. By the time I got to the end, I was even more disappointed. The plot had potential, but it never took off, and ended poorly. Combined with the horrible acting, this is 90 minutes of my life I can never get back. I was impressed with the cinematic views of the beach and ocean on my new 4k OLED TV, so I added a star. I rarely leave reviews here, seriously maybe 1 or 2 in decades, but this was so bad, I felt like I had a duty to warn others not to waste their time.

Story goes nowhere and it's as if the producers just hired a bunch if cute girls for the camera or for themselves.
