‘Missing’ Review: Followup To 2018’s Sleeper Hit ‘Searching’ Is A Nail-Biting Thriller For The Internet Age
20.01.2023 - 07:45 / deadline.com
2018’s sleeper hit, Searching showed you could create an effective edge-of-your-seat mystery thriller told exclusively through the use of the screens that dominate our daily lives in this century. It starred John Cho as a father whose 16 year old daughter disappears, leading him to use all the tools of the internet to try and trace her steps in order to find her. Its followup, Missing, actually improves on that idea with a different story and set of characters, taking it several leaps further in creating a corker of a suspense picture that looks like what a filmmaking master such as Hitchcock might have made had he been an IT genius too.
Watching Searching, which was directed and co-written (with Sev Ohanian) by Aneesh Chaganty, I kept thinking how the real stars of the piece were the film editors who had to put together a puzzle of images in order to create a coherent story. It makes sense then that thewriting/directing reins of Missing have been handed to those two Searching editors Will Merrick and Nicholas D. Johnson. They have not just stayed true to the spirit of the franchise they helped bring to life, they have taken it to a new level.
At its heart this is really an old fashioned detective story dressed up for contemporary audiences who will entirely relate to the idea of a movie told solely from the POV of screens, whether on our phones, our computers, our security cameras, our television sets, our watches, and all sorts of technological devices with screens on them that are spying on us 24/7. It is big brother in the extreme, and the ultra clever conceit of this franchise is as novel as they come even employing a TV series in the midst of it all called Unfiction that cleverly mirrors the real tale as it
