Best of the psychological thriller

"Who are you? What have we done to each other?" the line reverberates and Amy Dunne played by Rosamund Pike stares at you with void, cold, sinister eyes. The scene shifts to Nick Dunne played by Ben Affleck - a very heartbroken, tired man running to his pub (owned by his sister too) to find solace on the day of his fifth wedding anniversary, playing board game. But as he comes back he realizes his wife, Amy, is missing and left behind clues (which was her favorite game on their wedding anniversary).

The story picks up from here and creates an amazing tension among the viewers- the conflict of characterization from Nick's point of view how Amy changed from being a loving caring wife to a person whom Nick cannot even recognize, the problems they never speak about but looming in their head, the serious cause of doubting, mistrust- giving a picture how Amy became unreachable and unbearable. The marriage became a farce. Now with every minute the story gets more and more twisted leaving hungry for answers. The sequence of the movie is mindblowingly riveting- as you do not know what will happen next. And hell it does end with a bang! leaving behind you with the question- "Who are you? What have we done to each other?"

As the poster suggests the grey, gloomy sky and the hollow faces- the story is gloomy, spine chilling, intense psychological drama and the best of the thriller, which needs to be watched - what happens to the beautiful, ravishing Amy Dunne?
