Are you into suspense? Gone is a thriller about a girl named Jill who is convinced that the serial killer who abducted her before, is now after her sister too. But because of her history as a mental patient, police refuse to believe her, so Jill has no choice but to fly solo in the desperate chase for her sister. Can she take on this crime all by herself? The movie succeeds in keeping me intrigued with its relentless pace. The story is clever, and the script contains quite a few witty lines. Both Jill's side and the police's side of the story are understandable, and the script has some good comebacks. I especially liked the ending because it was subtle and not very predictable. The cinematography is also elegant. Several scenes depict the beauty of the vast expanse of Forest Park, and the lighting of the film matches with the movie's tone. However, there are some small aspects of the movie that are not very realistic. For example, as Jill asks people for information on the murderer, they are willing to tell her everything, including the person's address. Other than that, I enjoyed this movie! I recommend this film to teens 13 and up because there are many twists and turns in the plot that younger kids might not follow. Gabriella Chu, age 14, KIDS FIRST! Film Critic.
