Desaparecida (2016)

This is a thriller, directed by Lee Eon-Hee. The film is really good.

Ji-sun’s daily life is hell, she is working in TV series marketing and also is undergoing a custody battle for her 18-month old daughter Da-eun. Ji-Sun hires a nanny Han-mae. The baby and the Nanny get along really well. One day, When Ji-sun gets back from work, she finds out both her Nanny and the baby disappeared. Thus, begins her searching.

I really loved the movie. I got no words for Gong Hyo-jin and Uhm Ji-won's acting! Mind-blowing. The story is well written.

This is like the ONLY kind of role Gong Hyo Jin can do properly. An awkward, overburdened character with no hope of character development. And you know what? She delivered on it this time.

The story was relatively thrilling in the aspect that I was at the edge of my seat worrying what would happen next. Again, another good thing. Cinematography was decent and not too many shaky cam nonsense.

Overall I would say, they wrapped it up pretty well, I sympathized with and hated the antagonist here all at the same time, and another plus I guess.
