forget his wife, is Ben Affleck gonna kill his comeback with this movie?
you're watching Beyond The Trailer's review of gone girl
The hallmark of a sociopath is a lack of empathy
amy lost a lot of blood in there and then somebody mopped it up
why would they mop up the blood if they're trying to stage a crime scene?
Whatever they found, it's safe to assume that is very bad.
I finally realized I am frightened of my own husband.
I will drill you, as if you're doing a deposition. What to say, what not to say.
- A trained monkey? - A trained monkey who doesn't get lethal injection.
She's going to eat you alive!
- You assaulted here? - That's not good enough for you?!
- I hit her? - It's not even close!
absolutely not I never touched her
We now believe Nick is involved in the disappearance of our daughter.
yes now comes the tricky part in Ben Affleck's come back
transitioning back into hollywood proper after going off on his own to
rehabilitate his career
with fantastic results! because sure now everybody's all into the McConaussaince
but don't forget that before the shirtless wonder became hollywood's
golden boy du jour
JLo butt-kissing Affleck stood in that spot! he rebooted by stepping off camera
to direct Gone Baby Gone
and eased back on camera to star in the next two movies he directed
the town and Argo. that last one earned him the gold for best picture and saw him
returned to the Oscar stage
fifteen years after his screenwriting win for Good Will Hunting
indeed it seems Affleck's real strengths lie behind the camera but he's intent on
being in front of it
and Warner Brothers the studio behind both the town and argo
value their relationship with Affleck so much they decided to give him what he wants
the starring role in perhaps one of the biggest movies ever to come out of the
studio Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice
and knowing full well how good he is behind the camera
Warner Bros listened to him when he said David Goyer's script need to be
rewritten by his Argo screenwriter Chris Terrio
and true to form Affleck seems to have known what he was doing
as Terrio is also writing the upcoming Justice League. but that's all happening
in the Warner Brothers' sandbox
meanwhile Affleck is having a much harder time starring in movies
where he's not in charge creatively. the company men
nobody saw it. To The Wonder? well nobody ever sees Terrence Malick movies
but nobody talked about it either
and runner runner? well it seemed just like old times with that one didn't it?
but gone girl sees Affleck working with David Fincher who supposed to be pretty
darn good behind the camera himself
but while gone girl has some solid box office buzz it doesn't have a lot of
awards buzz
in fact Fincher and gone girl author turned screenwriter Gillian Flynn
are using their gone girl interviews to promote their upcoming HBO
show
a remake of the UK's utopia and when people talk about gone girl they talk
about
Fincher, they talk about Flynn supposedly changing the ending up her own book
and a sex scene between Rosamund Pike and Neil Patrick Harris
that both actors described as incredibly graphic and
robotic. although Affleck shouldn't feel too bad about being left out as nobody
seems to have noticed that Reese Witherspoon helped produce this film
either. so can Affleck ever become the true movie star he's
always hoped to be? Or does he need to recognize his true calling
is as a multi hyphenate? gone girl comes frustratingly close to being an iconic
film but is undone by its own need to be
oh so clever now this is the non spoiler review and if you head over to the
spoiler review
explain that comment in detail but here let me just say that this could have
been the new fatal attraction
but instead is the greatest Lifetime movie ever made
or is that the mail equivalent up a Lifetime movie
at some point in the film tell appears tenable says it may be done are the
weirdest couple he's ever met
and i think thats this movie in a nutshell but what can we really
discussed without giving away spoilers with this film
it's difficult and then we can certainly discuss the ad campaign
and of boxes publicity department deserves a gold medal
for being able to pique your interest in this film %uh quite so as you can see
from the box office returns this weekend
without really giving anything away I think we can also discuss
David Fincher are to some degree I think he's truly a master visual storytelling
at this point
he is what elevates this material to be worthy of the big screen
and I think instructors like venture you're really the only
thing that could potentially a potentially save the mid-range movie
from going completely
digital now is gone girl
and instant classic no is gone girl
besides the publicity department an awards contender no
is gone girl a good date movie hell now
is gone girl: film people remember a decade from now
I'm share I will say this about time rolled up
it is very original very suspenseful
dripping with 8 n Bowl and speaking a bold if you want to go in CFL
aim high fly close to the Sun yet because if it's hubris like Eckes
totally under
then go and see gone girl if you want to see a film with
I'm
amazing up production values I perceive David engine company
go and see gone girl but otherwise I'd say it's a
very very very solid mid-range now
right so that's my review not spoil a review gone girl
if you've seen the film head over to my spoiler reviewer we can really
dig into this thing is there's plenty to discuss I hope you also leave
on your own short reviews I down below in the comments
here thank you so much for tuning in and you can check out some more episodes
