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.

4/5

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.

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.

'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.'

5/5

To satiate your curiosity, the list of appropriate adjectives of what follows in the second and third acts would include twisted, dark, seething, shocking, disturbing, unsettling, rich, creepy, and engrossing. You’ll see.

4.5/5

Gone Girl is a contemporary classic. A great Fincher film with two stellar leads performances (seriously, Affleck is doing great work playing off his own public persona). Flynn's work is like catnip.

Very clever, absolutely insane - I really enjoyed it, but hard to tell how much of that is because it was a great book first. The movie does it justice.

Keeps you on the edge of what is going to happen next the entire film. Constant battle in your brain of predictions of what is actually going on. Great film

What a waste of time. Don’t waste your time on this movie. 0% plot 100% smut. Content should be clean from this. The movie did not need any of these 10 senses it would have been better for plot if they never had any explicit scenes. I would rate this zero stars if I could.
