"What are you thinking? How are you feeling? What have we done to each other? What will we do?"

A woman goes missing, and it soon starts to seem as her husband had something to do with it. But she herself isn't so innocent after all...

I've seen a lot about this movie online, like on Tumblr etcetera. Most people seemed fascinated about this movie, but I didn't care that much - mostly bcause at that time I didn't like David Fincher that much. But then there was more photosets and edits of the movie, and it started to get more interesting. And now I've watched this.

The cinematography in this movie wasn't as good as in David Fincher's other movies, especially Fight Club. It was still good, but during the movie we focus more on the story than the cinematography, and in a film like this I understand that. It's still always nice to have something to look at - other than actors, you know. Music in this movie however was just as brilliant as in other Fincher's movies, and it was especially good for a thriller movies. It's always a big plus in a thriller or a drama, if it has someway unusual soundtrack, and not that basic strings-classical-orchestra-musi. In Gone Girl the soundtrack was absolutely perfect. Every moment of this movie was amplified by the amazing soundtrack.

I really love how Amy Dunne was portrayed. That's mostly because Hollywood seems to like one or two types of ladies in movies, and there isn't really anything special anywhere. Men get the best and most complicated roles, always. What's up with that? Well, Amy's character is absolutely unusual compared to the trope of the wife in movies. Her character was devious, pitiless, ingenious and in every way a well written character. Of course well written character doesn't always mean a good person, or a character you would like in a real life. However, well written characters usually are those who are most close to actual people. Of course I hope not many people in real life are like Amy, but it was absolutely fantastic to see well-written and different kind of female character in Hollywood movies.

Also Nick's character was interesting. He's not a good guy either, but he's also not as bad as everyone assumes. And what I love is in this movie you can't be exactly sure what said about Nick and Amy's marriage is true and what's not. Both of them have had their ways to alter the truth, with either lies or just confusion. And their marriage is something I... well I don't like it, but it's interesting. I think I could look into it better sometime.
