The basis of the film is interesting - a couple and their unwell 3-year old daughter check into a beach resort in Mauritius. The following morning the child disappears from their room leaving the distraught parents running from pillar to post trying to look for her. The first half is consistent and manages to keep the viewer in suspense but the second half blows out of proportion, with long drawn out scenes, unconvincing twists and poor choices by the characters. The performances are ok at best, which is disappointing considering the two lead are great actors. The film also struggles with pacing issues at times. The screenplay is so awful; and I don't appreciate the ridiculous amount of twists, there are at least four twists in the plot each more ridiculous than the one that came before. The plot keeps changing direction every 15-minutes or so to the point where the whole becomes illogical. The dialogues are tacky and cheesy which will get you laughing for the wrong reason at times. The cinematography doesn't suit tone of the film. But the background score is good tho loud at times. Overall, it's an okay thriller.

Don't make the mistake of watching this trash because of Manoj Bajpai and Tabu, they simply collected the paychecks here. I've can't remember having seen any other movie with more wooden acting, and nonsensical dialogues. The story has so large loopholes that you could drive a truck through it. It really takes a sh**ty director to make a C-grade movie with A-grade actors, and the director has done a bang up job at that.

Please watch this movie. Don't listen to people who are self proclaimed so called critics. This film has a great plot and has great performances by the greatest and most competent actors of Hindi Cinema.

The makers ran out of creativity while deciding the title. There are lot of thrillers out there and you simply cannot afford to have a common, uncatchy title as "missing". I mean everyone is missing in almost all the thrillers.

This one's a very compelling thriller with brilliant star cast. Underrated because it didn't reach the right audience also maybe not well marketed.

Kept me glued to the screen till the very end.

How important a screenplay (or for that matter a story too) is even when brilliant actors like Manoj and Tabu are in, is conveyed in this film. The highlight of this film for the audience and the writer(s) was 'keeping the suspense alive' whether the suspense was logical, whether the writing made sense, whether the dialogues were apt/ realistic, didn't matter to the makers.

The entire film had horrible dialogues which isn't what someone would say at those moments. Obviously the actors did their best (Tabu in particular) but if the screenplay is faulty (except for a salman khan film) then nothing works. As if this wasn't a torture, they had an unnecessary song in the film. The film is very predictable from one scene int he beginning half itself. Very cliche writing and nothing in the film works.
