The Lost

This movie is low budget, and set in basically one house. However, you don't really notice because you are so engrossed with the things being said. Best line of the movie is dropped by the nanny, and you'll know it when you hear it. The main cop, Danny, has you reigned in as a hate/love character, and his bright blue eyes lighting up as he engages in a scene. This movie is underrated! It's almost akin to M. Knight Shamalan style movies.

It's not an A grade movie by any means, but it certainly doesn't pretend to be. I do have to wonder if there's multiple low reviews because the ending wasn't wrapped up in a neat little package, and a lot of people can't cope without a happy or closed ending.. and I get it, it was a bit frustrating to not truly know what happened, and the very end was a little confusing as it went from fiction to not entirely fiction to breaking the 4th wall and accusing a UK politician of being involved in child sex trafficking, and abruptly cutting.. But the film itself overall was an interestingly written story with multiple twists, and for once, no actual gore (except the ending where someone is shot point blank in the head out of nowhere), but otherwise, it's the cleanest crime story I've seen in decades.

Awful movie from the opening terrible acting of the Mother character, to the horrific lines and attitude of the male detective. In 2020 they are making this dribble of unintelligent dialogue, acting and storyline. Do they think intelligent people will watch or just leave the movie on for the pets to watch.

This film had me interested and guessing throughout, and the ending packed a punch too. Storyline is a sensitive one. Well written script with substance and edge. Enjoyed it and would recommend.

Put this on, on a sunday afternoon, thinking it would be something to have on in the background... but i was hooked. The detective was a brilliant character, his one liners were hilarious. Some of the acting seems a bit wooden but there is a reason for this. I honestly could not predict how it was going to end. Also nice to see an appearance from Terri Dwyer!

I thought it was a great story in theory and mostly great acting. I was left a bit bewildered at too many unanswered questions though. Could have been better but not the worst I've seen.

I don't understand the negative reviews except for the fact that people must not understand the film. I guess it's because you have to listen and pay attention to what is SAID. There are no crashes, explosions, or gratuitous sex scenes so it loses their attention. It is a very intense subject matter and touches every emotion, you really never expect some of it. As for some saying you don't know who the actual culprit us, I believe it is answered by the last phone call by the female detective if you really pay attention. I recommend this for people who like intense crime thrillers, but realize it has the potential for triggering (in I hate that word) subject matter.

I honestly wasn't expecting much from this movie from the synopsis outlining a familiar topic of child disappearance. I read the reviews and thought I'd give it a go anyway as a fan of English movies. I was glad I did. It was gritty, suspenseful and makes you think - especially if you have children. Any of the endings are plausible which created an interest in finding out more about trafficking and abduction (after checking on my own child). In regards to encouraging people to look outside their own bubble it was a success.
