Ok at this point....Fincher is God,like literally no one else could've made this but him...that's how fucking good he is,he is truly one special director. Also the amount of times I said "Whaaaaat" during the whole runtime was insane. This film is directed by David Fincher and stars Ben Affleck,Rosamund Pike,Carrie Coon,Tyler Perry,Kim Dickens and Neil Patrick Harris in this film that is just....such a good murder mystery for like the 1st act,then becomes a fantastic thriller film around the second then proceeds to end things on more of a Drama type film and it's all executed so damn well throughout the entire film. So Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike probably gave out their best performances in this and my God they were truly Oscar Worthy....and Ben Affleck absolutely blew me away with his performance...never been a huuuuge fan of him until now. The twisty twists in this film are very twisty and I just loved how each twist wasn't just for shock value...it was to actually move the story along and have meaning to it. The themes and messages about marriage and relationships are also delved in quite deep here and I just loved every second of it. Carrie Coon as Margo was also great and I thought Carrie killed it in her role. Quite the lengthy film in here and I just really thought the pacing in here was handled mastefully...everything happening was interesting and there was no dull scene whatsoever. The film really does take you on quite the thrill ride and I just loved it so much...this film sort of makes you feel like you can't breathe or really feel anything until it's over and I think that's a incredible accomplishment from David Fincher. This is another movie that's really hard to talk about without spoiling so I'm just gonna end things by recommending it to you cause I really think this is one of the best films I've ever seen....it really is that good,so please check it out when given a chance.
