Searching2018

Such a damn good thriller. The suspense kept me hooked till the end and I actually guessed that the detective was behind it, so seeing that turn out to be true was pretty satisfying. But the best part for me was how the entire movie was told through laptop screens, phones, video calls, social media and everything. It could have easily felt like a gimmick, but they actually used it really well to tell the story and build the mystery. Also loved the small detail at the end where David finally shuts down his laptop. He spends the whole movie searching for his daughter, and only after finding her does he finally close the laptop. Such a simple but meaningful ending. Really clever mystery thriller with great suspense and a unique way of storytelling.
