Gone Girl

— “Gone Girl” may have been a little long at 2.5 hours, but at least there was enough plot to sustain the time. The actors all did a fine job although Neil Patrick Harris seemed like an odd choice for his part, and the directing was more than competent. Of course the highlight was really the script which may have lost a little of the depth of the novel, but still worked as a psychological thriller, unfolding from various perspectives until you had a full picture of the main characters and their relationships. Definitely worth seeing.
