Missing (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Wendy Ide Observer (UK) The inventive approach and the frantic energy of the storytelling elevate the picture above its slightly gimmicky formal device, though this film lacks the novelty value that made Searching such a talking point. Rated: 3/5 Apr 23, 2023 Full Review Missing (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Alison Rumfitt Little White Lies The final act was one reveal too many, unfortunately, and a glib use of a serious subject matter doesn’t help. Rated: 2/5 Apr 19, 2023 Full Review Missing (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (3) John Nugent Empire Magazine A gripping, well-told, incredibly watchable thriller for a new generation of TikTok sleuths — and a compelling argument to up your average screen-time. Rated: 4/5 Apr 17, 2023 Full Review Missing (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Elisa Guimarães Collider The film is a loose sequel to 2018’s Searching, and, despite aiming at a somewhat younger audience than its predecessor, it sure doesn’t fail at making us scared. Feb 1, 2024 Full Review Missing (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Nicolás Medina Montevideo Portal / Latido Beat Ultimately, this is a truly enjoyable experience for anyone looking for a film that will make them think about theories, debate, or simply gawk at intense and absurd turning points. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 7/10 Dec 19, 2023 Full Review Missing (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Manuel São Bento MSB Reviews The screenlife storytelling technique remains fascinating, as debutants Will Merrick and Nick Johnson bring an insane level of mind-blowing detail to every single digital frame.

Julia my Daughter twin this movie is so good Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/19/23 Full Review EILEEN J Many twists in this movie. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/22/23 Full Review Izen Sol Now please don't take my star rating as gospel, I just really enjoy the format and type of movie this is. I also really enjoyed the movie that came out a couple years ago called searching, I just really enjoy these movies as a whole. I do not think these movies are great, phenomenal, game changing, but I really enjoy them personally. So if you found enjoyment out of searching then you will love missing, if you thought searching was a gimmick of a movie then you will also think missing is a gimmick of a movie. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/21/23 Full Review DONIBE Very suspenseful! Great plot twists Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/21/23 Full Review Jennifer C I enjoyed this one - although some twists felt a bit predictable, overall the story kept me guessing. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/19/23 Full Review Papi G Very good I liked it alot not protectable Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
