Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.
Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
grungerevised Only thing that freaked me out where the two pictures. And even at that, it just looked like Sam from ICarly.
capnmuninton Throughout the entire film I did not believe one line that came from the "actor's" mouths. Most of their reactions were unrealistic and cliché. It's very unlikely that teenagers would stare at their screens without multitasking throughout the duration of a video call. Micheal Goi clearly has no understanding of the internet and teenagers if this is how he thinks they react to everyday situations. This movie, if you can even call it that, was incredibly difficult to take seriously and I could consider it to be more of a comedy than a thriller. Many of the scenes shot seemed uncoordinated. During a scene when Megan and Amy are about to speech with each other via video call, you could clearly hear Micheal Goi yelling 'Action'. All together, it was sloppy and boring.If you want to see a film that is beautifully created and shocking I would recommend Funny Games. (The original of 1997.)
benjaminborrelli To put it in simple terms, it's seriously one of the worst movies I have ever seen It features some of the worst directing, acting, cinematography, logic and pretty much anything you can think of that is vital to the production of a movie. I can not take anyone seriously if they say they enjoyed this movie.Don't get me wrong, I get what they were aiming for, but they did it in the most illogical and unrealistic piece of s*** way possible! It's almost like Michael Goi doesn't know a single thing about the internet or teenagers in general, but we see him on reddit and IMDb all the time? Good Job Goi! (Who elected this guy president of the ASC? Seriously?)I also really don't understand how the movie managed to feature terrible acting from the ENTIRE cast, seriously how did all this get through editing and post-production?TL;DR Don't waste your time watching this movie, it is absolute garbage.
samgiannn Megan is Missing is a movie that deserves any scorn that it gets. It has some truly terrible acting and some weird directing choices. It's not well-made horror; it's effective horror. Megan is Missing is about two best friends, Megan and Amy, who meet a guy online named Josh and eventually get abducted and go missing. A majority of the film is just set-up for the eventual abduction of the girls. You do get to see each girl's personalities, social lives and just everything about them. Megan is one of the most popular girls at school. She has a bunch of friends, goes out drinking, and blows random guys at parties. Amy is on the opposite end of the spectrum. She's neat, doesn't have many friends, and doesn't go out much. Watching the two go through their normal days throughout the first act makes the final act so much more disturbing. The film does slow down a bit whenever "Josh" comes into the picture, and there are these short scenes of newscasts that are almost unbearable to watch because it has the world's most aggravating news anchor. The last twenty minutes, however, becomes unbearable for a completely different reason. The ending changes Megan is Missing from a somewhat dull drama thriller into a truly harrowing experience. There's some imagery in there that will be hard to shake for days to come. This is honestly a terrible film, but when the horror is as brutal and unforgettable as this, it is still worth a watch if you can stomach the material.
