Gone Girl.... A masterpiece.

This movie was one of the best movies I have seen in a couple of years. Even though I am not a huge Ben Affleck fan, Rosamund Pike was outstanding and the direction of David Fincher was phenomenal....Even though most people would think the build-up was long and drawn out... I think Fincher did an excellent job in trying to paint doubt in Nick Dunne's innocence.. It showed the chinks in the armor of the marriage.. Built a guilty aura around Nick to where you despised him... You felt sorry for the "missing wife"... Then the secret comes out... You feel bad for all the pressure Nick is facing (with a still hatred of him for cheating) and start to despise her... But it then gets better... Her plans are derailed when the crooked neighbors steal her stash.... And she has to reach for an exbf that she played her games on her earlier in life... But when seeing Nick on a TV Show and how the "perception" of him changes.. How he is loved by the people.... She devises an evil plan that even shocks me.... Then Nick is left in hell with her for who knows how long. A masterpiece... Worth watching over and over and over again.
