In a month’s time, the Netflix library will no longer include the “inventive” and “gripping” thriller starring Storm Reid, known as “Missing“.>

In 2023, the movie revolves around teenager June Allen (Reid) as she delves into the mystery surrounding her mother’s disappearance, Grace (Nia Long). As she unearths secrets, she finds herself questioning whether she truly understood her mother or not.

The sequel to “Searching,” starring John Cho, titled “Missing,” is produced by the same team that brought us “Unfriended.” This upcoming anthology series displays its visuals as if they’re being played on devices like computers and smartphones.

The movie can be streamed up to and including this coming Saturday, 19th July. Currently, it isn’t accessible via any other subscription platforms; however, you can purchase or rent it from numerous online stores.

On Rotten Tomatoes, the movie boasts an impressive 88% positive review rating based on 147 critiques. Generally speaking, critics agree that Reid gives an unforgettable leading performance, while the visual effects are skillfully employed.

Here’s what some of them have said:

Empire Magazine

“An engaging, skillfully crafted, highly binge-worthy thriller tailored for the modern era of TikTok detectives – offering a strong case for extending your usual viewing hours.”

This version maintains the original’s essence while using simpler and more natural language to convey the same idea.

AV Club

As a devoted viewer, I can’t help but acknowledge that the captivating portrayal of Storm Reid significantly enhances the narrative. She masterfully encapsulates the tumultuous emotions of a mature yet troubled youth amidst crisis, all without veering into irritating, over-the-top dramatics.

The Observer

As a captivated viewer, I found the innovative narrative style and the pulsating enthusiasm of the storytelling in this film truly remarkable. Despite its somewhat flashy structural element, which might seem familiar after the unique appeal of “Searching,” it still managed to rise above that minor aspect. However, compared to the groundbreaking novelty that sparked so much conversation around “Searching,” this movie falls short in that regard.

The Hollywood Reporter

Following the pattern set by its forerunner, this movie uses and alters the features found on a typical computer desktop to narrate an intense and unsettling tale.

Los Angeles Times

These films, such as “Searching” and “Missing“, are particularly enthralling because they aren’t just high-concept thrillers with emotional performances. Instead, they seem genuine to our everyday lives, even during their more extraordinary scenes.

Missing is available to stream now on Netflix, and will be departing the service on 19 July.

Experience the premiere of Digital Spy’s first print magazine, “British Comedy Legends,” available for purchase at local newsagents or online! Enjoy it at a budget-friendly price of only £3.99!
