In Gone, Jill (Amanda Seyfried) was kidnapped from her home by a stranger and thrown into a pit in the forest. In the bottom of the pit Jill found human bones. When the kidnapper climbed down to kill her, Jill fought back and managed to escape. The police initiated a search but never located the killer or the pit into which he had thrown Jill. The police eventually decided Jill was crazy and began to ignore her. A year later, Jill’s sister Molly disappears in the middle of the night from Jill’s home. Believing the kidnapper had come back, Jill sets out to save her sister before it is too late.
This movie was better than I expected. It is suspenseful, engaging and has a few red herrings that keep you guessing. The acting is good but not Oscar worthy. My only real complaint about the movie is that the suspense builds the entire movie, but the final climax is a bit anticlimactic.

The movie is worth seeing but definitely not kid friendly. I give it 7 / 10.
