Gone (2012)
Rated PG-13 for language and peril
Starring Amanda Seyfried, Daniel Sunjata, Jennifer Carpenter, Sebastian Stan
Directed by Heitor Dhalia
The Story:
Jill
(Seyfried) was abducted and escaped her would-be killer. The police
(Sunjata) really don't believe her fantastical tale, and the medications
she is taking are because everyone thinks she's crazy. However, when
her sister is abducted, Jill knows it was the same killer, and she sets
out to find him, without the help of the police.
Meh.
It's your average thriller that's less than thrilling than it should be.
Boy meets girl.
Boy abducts girl.
Girl escapes boy.
Boy pursues girl.
Boy kidnaps different girl.
Girl seeks revenge on boy.
Happy ending, except for boy.
You'll see every twist.
Anticipate every turn.
Stifle every yawn.
I used to expect more from Amanda Seyfried, but lately, I'm not so sure anymore.
Ah well...there's always Mean Girls. ;)
Totally your call if you want to take the ride.
Final Grade: C-
Rewatchability/Purchase Factor: None for me, thanks.
