November 15th 2024.
In just a matter of days, Netflix will bid farewell to a gripping thriller that has been garnering rave reviews, despite its impending departure. The highly-rated film, Missing, has held audiences captivated since its release in 2023, boasting a stellar cast including Storm Reid, Nia Long, Ken Leung, Tim Griffin and Megan Suri.
As an anthology sequel to 2018's hit movie Searching, Missing follows the story of teenager June Allen, played by Storm Reid, who is thrown into a state of panic when her mother goes missing while on vacation with her new boyfriend. With a sense that something is amiss, June utilizes her tech-savvy skills to unravel the mystery, taking viewers on a wild ride through her various devices.
But with its imminent departure from Netflix US on November 19, time is running out for those who want to catch this thrilling tale. However, it can still be streamed on Sky Cinema in the UK, or rented on Amazon Prime Video.
Currently boasting a Rotten Tomatoes audience score of 90% and a critics ranking of 89%, Missing has received high praise from viewers. Millie R described it as "a really great movie" with "unpredictable" twists, while Julian Rex M praised its creativity and Storm Reid's "excellent performance."
Finn S was impressed by the film's unique shooting style and its use of modern technology, while Mortal declared it "extremely good" and praised the escalating plot. Robert R also commended the film's unconventional filming technique, admitting it added an extra layer to the story.
The official synopsis of Missing reads: "When her mother disappears while on vacation in Colombia with her new boyfriend, June's search for answers is hindered by international red tape. However, as she digs deeper, her digital sleuthing soon raises more questions than answers."
Storm Reid truly shines in her role as June, with her performance stealing every scene. Fans have applauded her efforts and her ability to keep audiences on the edge of their seats. In an interview with Vanity Fair, Storm shared that she was just as invested and on edge while filming, despite having the script in her hands.
"I thought I knew what was happening, but I would turn a few pages and have no idea what was going on," she admitted.
Storm also addressed the common misconception about her generation, saying, "I just feel like there's a general misconception about Gen Z, that we're always on our phones and that we have a short attention span and we don't pay attention. But that isn't true. We have thoughts, we have feelings, and we are trying to be the best young people possible."
She added, "I think we are the most culturally diverse and accepting generation there has been in years. So that needs to be recognized and respected and accounted for as well."
