First - this is not a horror movie. This may be scary to people if they knew before hand that this movie is about a young girl who suddenly vanished and never again appeared. The plot looks good. But the way it unravels after the guy finds out his wife vanished is highly debatable. If somebody's wife was kidnapped by some person, would he travel around with that kidnapper in a car sipping coffee with him even if the kidnapper offered a ride? Would he talk to him so that the kidnapper could psyche him out? Would he have anything to do with him at all? Well these are highly debatable. Mostly I feel that this movie wove a story so unrealistic at important places so as to create the "wow" or the unexpected. Okay –but is the movie engrossing and engaging you right from the beginning? Yes - true. Surely the viewer would sit from the beginning till the end of the movie - so as to just know - what happened to the girl - just like her boy friend - Rex?. Go and watch it. It's highly engrossing. My rating for this alone is 7 out of 10.
