Missing

About This Movie

So, 'Missing' is a pretty gripping film, I’d say. Directed by Costa-Gavras, it really nails the tension of the time—everything feels heavy, you know? The pacing is deliberate, almost methodical, which amps up the suspense as Ed Horman digs deeper into his son's disappearance. The performances are solid; Jack Lemmon brings a real weight to the role of the father, showing a mix of desperation and determination. The atmosphere is thick with paranoia, especially when they start peeling back the layers of political cover-ups. It's striking how it intertwines personal loss with broader political implications, making you think while you watch. Definitely not your average thriller, that's for sure.
