Nick and Amy have what appears to be the perfect marriage. On their fifth wedding anniversary, Amy vanishes. Gone in what looks like a struggle. Of course everyone suspects Nick, but he insists he's innocent and that someone else must have taken her. After following the clues that she left him for their annual anniversary scavenger hunt, he begins to believe that he has been set up by Amy herself to make it look as if she has been harmed by her husband.
Told from each of their alternating perspectives, I found myself siding with and believing in Amy, then later totally believing Nick, only to reverse my entire position again and again.
Told in present tense and also in flashbacks, what really happened to Amy? Was she a devoted wife who was killed by a cruel and cheating husband? OR, is she a mentally disturbed woman who has faked her disappearance as his punishment, hoping to see him hated by all and locked away for life?
I was riveted for the entire journey.
I loved it, and the movie too.
