Movie Review - Searching (2018)

This is one of the most talked about movie lately. No big posters here and there, no big budget marketing in TV, malls or any kind of the usual thing we see. I never know about this movie too until one of my favorite twitter dude shares about this movie, then it caught my attention.

Searching, made only 15,566,043 USD world wide according to IMDB, with also scores 7,9/10 in IMDB. So, if you're looking for a new movie to watch this weekend, well, this could be it.

Starred by John Cho as David Kim, a father that has a perfect family. A beautiful wife and a daughter. Until cancer took his wife, and the family changed into a distant relationship. This is very common, when the glue is missing, the relationship became distant. One day, David was face timing his daughter about the house chores, and ask her daughter to do it as soon as possible. The next morning, he found out that her daughter never came home from her study group.

This movie will enlight you, if ever one of your family member or your loved ones ever missing. But don't forget, the more you dig, the more secrets revealed.

David thought he knew his daughter, he thought he knew her daily life, her favorite places, her favorite friends. But the moment his daughter is missing, he realized he knew nothing about her.

This movie is filled with lots of details, like a puzzle, one by one is crafted into one big picture. The best thing that I love about Searching is the plot twist is great. Just when you thought you already figure it out, there's always surprises at the corner. Tailored into a great big picture this movie is definitely worth to watch.

I don't want to spoil the story much, cause it will ease the surprises. Before you watch it, delete all your thoughts, follow all the cues, and enjoy the storyline.

This is one of the best storyline in a movie I have watched this year, so I give Searching 4/5 stars. If you have watch the movie, share your thoughts with me in the comments below.

XOXO
