Critics Consensus

Missing can strain credulity in its efforts to keep the audience guessing, but a fast pace and relatable fears keep this twisty techno-thriller from completely losing its way.

Audience Says

If you can look past the visual gimmicks, Missing makes for an edge-of-the-seat thriller that's good at keeping you guessing.

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

The inventive approach and the frantic energy of the storytelling elevate the picture above its slightly gimmicky formal device, though this film lacks the novelty value that made Searching such a talking point.

Rated: 3/5

Little White Lies

The final act was one reveal too many, unfortunately, and a glib use of a serious subject matter doesn’t help.

Rated: 2/5

John Nugent

Empire Magazine

A gripping, well-told, incredibly watchable thriller for a new generation of TikTok sleuths — and a compelling argument to up your average screen-time.

It’s so damn immersive it might as well be an endless Twitter thread on a late Sunday night.

Collider

The film is a loose sequel to 2018’s Searching, and, despite aiming at a somewhat younger audience than its predecessor, it sure doesn’t fail at making us scared.

Ultimately, this is a truly enjoyable experience for anyone looking for a film that will make them think about theories, debate, or simply gawk at intense and absurd turning points. [Full review in Spanish]

Now please don't take my star rating as gospel, I just really enjoy the format and type of movie this is. I also really enjoyed the movie that came out a couple years ago called searching, I just really enjoy these movies as a whole. I do not think these movies are great, phenomenal, game changing, but I really enjoy them personally. So if you found enjoyment out of searching then you will love missing, if you thought searching was a gimmick of a movie then you will also think missing is a gimmick of a movie.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
