Very Cool!!!

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

This was a terrific movie if you let it be what it is: a character-driven drama about a marriage challenged by an occurrence too frightening to be ignored. I watched it because I'm a Teresa Palmer fan, but it was Felicity Price (also co-screenwriter) who was the revelation. The opening montage of Cambodia captured the other-worldliness that tourists in Asia often experience but also the joy they brought with them to that experience; later reminders that introduced flashbacks also brought in the sense of menace that goes with encounters with the unfamiliar. The acting was great, the actions of the characters quite believable taken in context. Scenes with children have the potential to wreck otherwise good movies, but those here were excellent. I agree with reviewers who think the movie was slow-moving and there were times I wanted to move on to the next scene, but notwithstanding this it held my interest throughout.

It could have been a very good movie. Story looks good but script is too poor and more than that direction is the worst in this world. Switching between time frames confuses viewers whether they are watching current incident or a past event. I started this movie because synopsis was appealing and starting of the movie was good. I tried my best but could not complete this movie till the end. Watch if you really have a long vacation and have a lot of time to watch shits. could the story been flown smoothly, it could have been a best movie. Otherwise, stay away and use your time wisely. this is not good movie. not good. my recommendation is don't watch".

Don't be put off by the opening of this movie, which shows four privileged thirty-somethings indulging themselves on a SE Asian holiday; followed by more self-conscious family life in pretty Sydney surroundings. Then it appears not all is well. One of the four, a businessman, has gone missing, and other things which happened on the holiday begin to be revealed. Excellent performances from Teresa Palmer and Joel Edgerton, and a skillful withholding of information, keep this mystery/emotional drama ticking over. The prettiness of the photography is a nice irony, contrasting with the increasingly murky revelations. There's a slight over-indulgence in arty camera angles when you'd like to get closer to the characters and their feelings; the performances by the missing man's parents are unconvincing, and the the lead female performance is often curiously detached. Nevertheless this is one of those stories which slowly grows stronger; its twists are credible and powerful. Good work!

Saw this recently on a flight from Bangkok and although it was only on the incredibly small screen, I think it was about the right size for the story. It was a very simple tale, with not too much drama and fairly predictable narrative wrapped around a very obvious dialogue. The main lead acted well and that in my mind magnified the shortcomings of the story.There were obvious gaps in the story that the actors tried to fill with raw emotion but that didn't quite gel with me and there was the willing suspension of disbelief with regard to the final scenes that were meant to sum up so much but instead left you feeling that the tale had been dragged out somewhat.
