Gone Girl is a bestseller that has been on the bestseller lists for 121 weeks, starting at number 7 and moving to Number 2 so it was a foregone conclusion that there would be a movie. The best adaptations in my opinion are when the original author does the screenplay, so I was pleased when Gillian Flynn wrote the screenplay. Then I was worried would they get the casting right? I am pleased to report they did,
I have always been a fan of Ben Affleck,ever since I saw him in Good Will Hunting , and everyone admits he is a good director. I think he will be a great Batman as well. Rosamond Pike was perfectly cast as the icy blonde wife straight out of a Hitchcock movie ,and the whole movie felt distinctly Hitchcockian but with the David Fincher touch. I have never seen a movie of his I didn’t like. Zodiac and The Social Network were masterpieces.
The supporting cast was perfect,most notably I was surprised by how fun Tyler Perry was as a celebrity lawyer who was subdued but charismatic, and Carrie Coon, who played Margo Dunne, Nick’s sister. I found her to be the most likable,
I thought Neil Patrick Harris showed dramatic range, worlds away from his Barney Stinson character
I was on the edge of my seat the whole time and was only disappointed in 1 area, but that was in the book, so can’t blame the director.
I honestly think this will have Actor and Actress nominations for Ben Affleck and Rosamond Pike I give it a thumbs up and a 4 out of 5.
