Searching

Starring:  John Cho, Debra Messing, Michelle La

Director:  Aneesh Chaganty

Critical Score:  75

What is most interesting about this movie is the use of social media and the internet in general for searching, storing, collaborating and communicating with others around the world.  Margot goes missing and her father is desperately searching and in the process needs to access her social media accounts, email, bank information – all online – to follow the trace.  The movie takes many unexpected twists and turns and is almost impossible to predict.  The only negative I have to say is that the media coverage of missing Margot seems a little far fetched.  However, this film was definitely well thought out and the acting is excellent.  It kept me very interested and entertained for the entire film.
