Missing Ratings & Reviews
- jackmeat3. december 2025My quick rating - 6.6/10. I thought Searching was pretty good, so I am looking forward to their next flick. This one is in the same vein as the first and only loses points from me on the fact that it is basically the same flick. The original premise of solving a mystery through free online means only is still novel enough to work with, but this is so much like Searching. The difference being, instead of a kidnapping, we have Storm Reid home alone while her parents go on vacation, but when Mom (Nia Long) doesn't arrive at the airport, she puts on her detective gloves (to type with) to find her. Instead of all the secrets being on the laptop, she will use all means of the open Internet to try and find out what happened to her mother. Writer/Director Will Merrick throws quite a few curveballs at us to keep you guessing and does so effectively. There are a couple of side stories sprinkled in as well, which may or may not be related, and I don't give spoilers, so that is up to you to see. I did think that it may have been a case of trying out a few different scenarios during the course of making this, and then deciding that some of it just didn't work, yet still wasn't edited out. But that is my opinion, not a fact, so again, you would have to see. Overall, I found the whole story engaging enough and kept me wondering throughout. Especially recommended if you liked the first one. I personally gave that one a 6.8/10, so you can see this is hanging right there with it. The random stranger Joaquim de Almeida, who gets roped into helping Reid, was the highlight of the film to me. Great mix of humor along with serious in a character that was a must in this story, and they cast the perfect guy to do it.

- Kevin Ward4. juli 2025Spiritual sequel to 2018’s Searching, Missing utilizes the same storytelling presentation. All perspectives shown are that of computer screens, web browsers, text messages, surveillance footage, face time calls, etc etc.etc. Each new screen capture expertly unravels this wonderfully gripping mystery. To be honest, on paper, this method of storytelling sounds incredibly boring. But tremendous credit has to be given to Aneesh Chaganty and the other writers. The nature of the presentation gives the audience the feel as if we’re the one’s doing the investigating and appeals to the inner internet detective in all of us. But in reality, we have no control. Chaganty has the reigns and we’re completely being taken for a ride, with unexpected twists and turns, some really clever humor and some touching moments that me quite moved. To say anymore would likely reveal too much. Nia Long, Storm Reid and Len Leung (really the entire cast) executes to perfection. Well worth checking out.
- John Chapel22. januar 2025Searching was better, but I'm in love with this new genre of audience perspective through social media. If you don't know what this is, The whole movie takes place from YOUR perspective, as if you're researching it on your PC. It's very cool. The plot has its twists and is written great. I want more of these.
- N810. oktober 2024I had a blast with Missing, a film that, while not quite reaching the heights of Searching, certainly justifies its existence and then some. It's a testament to the power of the "digital interface" genre, a category of films that engage audiences in a novel and captivating way. At its core, Missing is a "Where's Waldo" style thriller, where we follow a daughter's desperate search for her missing mother using only the digital breadcrumbs left behind. The film's use of technology and digital interfaces is both impressive and innovative, immersing us in the protagonist's frantic search for clues. While some might label the film's reliance on technology as a gimmick, I believe it's a brilliant use of the audio-visual medium. Every frame counts, every detail is significant, and the film's digital landscape becomes a character in itself. This approach is both exciting and challenging, as it requires viewers to pay close attention and actively engage with the material. Beyond the thrilling mystery, Missing also offers some incisive and thoughtful commentary on our current digital age. The film explores themes of surveillance, privacy, and the way technology can both connect and isolate us. It raises questions about the value of human connection in a digital world and the potential for technology to be used for both good and evil. The film's emotional beats are also well-executed, with several scenes that are sure to tug at your heartstrings. The relationship between daughter and mother is particularly moving, and the film's ending is both satisfying and thought-provoking. Overall, Missing is a worthy successor to Searching and a successful entry in the genre of digital-age thrillers. It's a film that will keep you on the edge of your seat and leave you thinking long after the credits roll. While it may not be as groundbreaking as its predecessor, it's a testament to the power of storytelling in the digital age and a must-see for fans of the genre.
- James Tang16. januar 2025A solid follow-up to 2018's Searching that has likeable characters, but overly convoluted plot that requires the audience to hand-waive a lot of conveniences. Still an enjoyable romp and I'm glad that desktop found footage is now a genre of film-making.
