And the movie was pretty long as is but I just know it has to be other crazy or interesting ? from the book that got left out.
I'm going to read the book when I get a chance but from what I hear it's virtually the same minus a few details and some characters who they didn't have time to fit in into the screenplayThe scene where shes covered in blood after slitting his throat had been stuck in my head since I saw it.
Whenever I think of this movie that's the first thing that pops in my head. -
Just saw it today, great film. Trent Reznor did his thing on the score as usual. Also has a couple funny parts in it.

The main one lol...I caught that she faked it real early. She seemed to me,a chick with a masters is very smart,and coming from new York you have to be cunning, methodical, cur throat ,growing up angry because of her parents.
Then you have Ben affleck playing as country, blue collared nice guy,family first type dude and not that bright nor that vindictive. So about the time she started reading her damn journal about he abusive and she scared ,I called ? -

He was unemployed, lazy, cheated on his wife, had no work ethic, leeched off Amy, never visited his dad in the nursing home, etc. Basically you're not supposed to like Nick either. But apparently the book went into more detail about how Nick thought about killing Amy; whether he was just fantasizing/playing what if or actually intended to we'll never know though. -

So about the time she started reading her damn journal about he abusive and she scared ,I called ?nah i didn't. i knew it wasn't gonna be as easy as ben affleck killing her tho cuz that's what everyone believed. i thought it coulda been him in the very beginning cuz they threw a red herring in there with the cat ending up on the bed with the doors closed when the cops got there. i was like hell na he cleaned up the house & ? he did it lol.
but then i thought back to the movie prisoners & thought it was neil patrick harris cuz he was the least suspecting person. i was all wrong.
but when it came out she was actually alive i had a quick thought they were working together on it possibly for the money & attention when she finally comes back. but then this ? turned into other mom from coraline & i knew it was a wrap. -
Loved this movie
Started a lil slow ... But once it picked up

That was one of the best movies I have ever seen. It was EXTREMELY well thought out and shot, with very complicated multidimensional characters. I have not seen a movie this good in a LONG time, and I'm very much a doubter of movies these days. Fincher has done it again.
-
The chick who wrote the book wrote the screenplay. ..
So reading the book or watching the movie one before the other is irrelevant really -
Apparently they're currently making a movie out of another one of her books called Dark Places.

Wasn't a psychopath lol...that's all I'm referring to. But damn he was pretty ? . That's what made this movie so good though. Was portrayed as the worse.unremorseful all through the death/disappearance of his wife. Audience began to not like him. Man that was pretty good writing -
Do we still need spoilers?
I liked Affleck's acting too. Not over dramatic. Very lean and effective -
and she got him for 18 years, 18 years. She got one of his kids, got him for 18 years. Dude is ? .

Dude is ? .Yep, he's basically a prisoner in his own home, or actually technically it's Amy's house. Amy was about to be bankrolling too 'cause in the book she starts writing a book about her experience with being "kidnapped"

we should discuss this entire thread in nothing but spoilers.

so was Neil Patrick Harris' character actually abusive to Amy or was it established that she was lying about that too?
-
^^ just used/killed him as an alibi to come back to Affleck

illestni99ainne wrote: »so was Neil Patrick Harris' character actually abusive to Amy or was it established that she was lying about that too?I think there was definitely a malicious history there, the focus on their relationship when she was hiding at the lake house hinted at it quite strongly.
The way he started to control every aspect of her to conform to his needs and make sure he got the attention.
Flawlessly executed murder -
illestni99ainne wrote: »so was Neil Patrick Harris' character actually abusive to Amy or was it established that she was lying about that too?I dont think she was completely lying. He showed various signs of a obsessed stalker,who didnt want her going anywhere. He was just passive,he basically was trying to keep her trapped there but not physically do it.
he bought her clothes.
told her multiple times forget about everything else,forget about your husband,you're with me now.
he was getting ready to live in that lake house with her ,like the day after. -
a scene late in the movie when they're both arguing and she says: "I killed for you.." made me realise that chick was cold as ice. 'calculating ? ' doesn't even begin to describe her.. the chick (Pike) is already a frontrunner for The Best Actress this next awards season
-
id be surprised if she didn't get an Oscar nom at the very least
-
Idk if it was just me but the sister was hella sexy to me. She was mad average, but given the chance I'd smash.
