Michelle Mylett in Gone (2019)

Review by SnoopyStyle

Gone

6/10

needs to push forward everything

Elle Whitland stumbles into a gas station. She has been missing for three days and claims to have escaped her kidnapper. Her reporter boyfriend Billy and sister Jen arrive at the hospital to find the police detectives questioning her. The police starts to suspect Billy. Elle has been doing hypnotherapy with Dr. Kilmeade for a past trauma.

The opening premise is pretty good. This really needs to start without any flashbacks to her captive story. The initial tension should arise from the audience questioning her story. They need to push up Dr. Kilmeade. Why not have him show up at the hospital and dismiss her kidnapping story to the police? Suspicion can fall on everyone and no one at the same time. On top of that, the acting is only functional and the filmmaking is lackluster. The first half really struggles for tension. As for the extensive police interrogations, I do like the one section where they show the same incident from both Jen and Billy. Otherwise, they are mostly too long and boring. That's part of the issue with the boring first half. The second half improves markedly but by that time, most viewers would have lost interest. I like the various red herrings and I like the whodunnit with the eventual reveal. The movie just needs to push everything forward to eliminate the boredom of the first half.
