It's so popular and great a movie that everyone who has seen it recommended me to go watch it.
The movie started with Nick, the husband, sitting in the bar and got a call from his neighbor, and he went home, found out that his wife Amy was gone. All of these happened on their fifth anniversary day.
Nick then called the police, and Amy's parents found a volunteering group to search for their beloved, talented daughter.
At first the was told in the third person perspective, but then it turned to the first person narrative, which is Amy telling the truth that she detested her husband so much that she set up a scheme to make everyone thinks that she was murdered by her husband. Amy's plan was so perfect that it sent a shudder through me. I almost believed that Nick really killed her. I don't want to tell more details of the movie! Haha! But the crazy mind of Amy really astonished me and gave me goosebumps. She was acting in front of everyone! And almost everyone was tricked by her.
I think what's really fascinating about the movie was that, among most victims or minorities in the stories were females. But in the Gone girl, the victim was male. This story holds a concept that "Truth are tend to be more deeper than what we saw outside." Just like Amy's ex-boyfriend was being accused of raping her, but those were all her schemes.
In my opinion, it's a very feminist mainstream movie, because it showed that nowadays society controls women and rforce them into certain roles, and have to obey what their husbands say. Amy in this movie,destroyed her husband's life, she's symbolically taking back power for women.
Amy wants to take control of man. She asks Nick to wear the tie she bought for him. In the reality, women tend be on the weak side, so Amy in the story, she took advantage of this, and made people to believe that her husband was the murderer.
I think it is a very good movie, because I am a very absent-minded person, so I think I can watch this movie for a lot of times!
Hi Kelly,
回覆刪除Thanks for sharing this movie and your viewpoint is pretty intriguing, as you analyze from the victim/ victimizer and feminism issue. However, there is a little notice for you: You do not need to repeat "I think" and "In my opinion" for many times, since your reflection is all about your own viewpoint. You do not necessarily need to say "I think" because the readers already know about it. Another thing: This review is not a really long article so it is suggested that you combine some paragraphs to one. Basically, this writing could be split into two parts: First paragraph→ movie introduction/ Second→ your own opinion.
