Critics Consensus

Dark, intelligent, and stylish to a fault, Gone Girl plays to director David Fincher's sick strengths while bringing the best out of stars Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike.

Olivia Luder

One Room With A View

Gone Girl is the movie Flynn fans hoped for and sets Pike up for a worthy Oscar nomination but Fincher disappoints in failing to improve upon the already-brilliant book.

Rated: 4/5

Reel Talk Online

Gone Girl is a rather funhouse version of this fateful couple's relationship that teeters on depravity, desperation and bitter irony in its every step.

Rated: A

Flavorwire

'Gone Girl' may come advertised as a thriller, but that's Fincher being a trickster-he's gone and made the curtest, nastiest, most acidic black comedy about the marital accord since 'The War of the Roses.'

The film is a character study, an analysis of gender norms with a regressive, problematic underbelly that could easily be missed because the movie is so darn entertaining.

Without prescriptions or clichés, Fincher manages to show the lights and shadows of the two central characters: the perfect marriage of the common man and the femme fatale. [Full review in Spanish]

Tonally sloppy. Things happen to Ben Affleck; Ben Affleck doesn't make things happen.

I like this one because it reminds me of my wife. She’s crazy, but loves me so much. But in all seriousness, this movie has such a great storyline great actors, and keep guessing. it is twisted and wicked to the core. It grabs all the emotions 4 1/5 out of 5.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

The movie goes to show to what extent people are willing to go to escape their miserable lives. I mean the people giving five stars to this nonsense. Quite nice first two hours but the ending could be the starting point to an episode of Inspector Montalbano. So much to love in Italian crime dramas, so much to forgive. Wasn’t expecting a David Fincher film requiring such forgiveness.
